Question Crashing on start with an Intel Arc 140T

[Expomarker 36]

It loads everything, I hear music, and then it goes black and just closes.

Everything low settings, Intel Core Ultra 9 285H, 32GB ram, the GPU gets ~17 GB for memory.

What is happening?

It’s likely a compatibility issue, either with the nature of an integrated GPU (the game really prefers dedicated VRAM) or with Intel’s graphics drivers as a whole (make sure yours are up to date).

RW already has trouble getting help from AMD (although that might change soon), but I have no idea what the situation is regarding Intel graphics support.

It’s interesting that you get past the initial load though. Maybe if you can free up more system memory there’s a chance.

So, I've looked into it a little more and updated my graphics drivers.


I do have vulkan support so it's weird why it crashes.


I also have 18 gigs of VRAM so it should be more than enough. Hopefully this is soon resolved

18GB of shared RAM isn't necessarily the same as 18GB dedicated VRAM, performance wise.

I've been seeing other reports of integrated Intel graphics in particular being finicky, but also on Intel GPUs. My guess is an overall driver compatibility thing.

Hopefully this is soon resolved

Hopefully indeed!
