Shader compilation process

[Nuckulz]

I downloaded the game, and when I hit the play button, the shader compilation process starts, but stops around the 52% mark, and it stops the process... puts me back where is says play... if I click it again, it starts the same process again. what do I need to do? maybe turn of a firewall or something...

Could be a RAM issue, could be your specs aren't able to run the game, but i do know it takes quite awhile for that process to finish.

I was tired of messing with it, too many people having too many issues with it, I had a refund and uninstalled it. I need a better system for it!

Worked for me. On 13900 I selected the first half of the cores (threads actually). Supposedly the P-cores only.

For the lazy:
- launch Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc)
- go to the Details tab, scroll to the letter D
- without closing Task Manager, launch the game
- once the game starts, Alt+Tab to Task Manager
- right-click DetroitBecomeHuman.exe
- select "Set affinity"
- uncheck "All Processors" and check only the first few "CPU N" (e.g. half of what you have or less)

This should prevent errors from happening during shader compilation.

IMPORTANT: once the process exits (you close the game), the affinity is reset and next time you start the game, it will use all cores again.

Thanks to this man I have finally been able to play Detroit Become Human and I am forever grateful.
