LowLevelFatalError AMD Radeon HD 6900 series
I have tried all possible solutions.
the only thing i haven't tried is to update the drivers because the graphics card is old and there are no new drivers
Please help me, I want to play :(
Is the game compatible with my graphics?

SPECS:

Windows 10 64 bits
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3330 CPU @ 3.00GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.0GHz
16 GB RAM
DirectX 12
AMD Radeon HD 6950

LowLevelFatalError [File:Unknown] [Line: 902]

Ah, I see, and are you still using the unofficial graphics driver? If so, are you happy with it? What's your opinion about its quality, how well would you say it works compared to the official drivers?

I didn't really notice much of a difference, since that didn't solve my problem I went back to the AMD drivers

Thanks for clarification. I was really curious about the possibilities of giving our old GPUs a new life with alternative driver, but I guess there's only so much the driver can do, and sadly fixing this problem was probably not one of those things.

I guess we can conclude that the older the hardware is, the less likely it is to support the latest games regardless of how recent the graphics driver is. Luckily, developers of this game managed to fix the problem and make it compatible even with older GPUs, that's nice of them.

Maybe you need to launch the game with -dx11 option
to see if this works for you.

update the driver, even your card is too old there will be optimizations that WILL help. just because your graphic card is too old doenst mean you shouldnt update drivers.

dxkv not doing it for you?

I'm a graphics programmer.

6900 hardware is D3D11_0 Feature Level. It's right on the cusp of full required feature set for this game. I imagine AMD still has newer drivers available, though seems unlikely it'd change anything.

The error message almost makes me think the game's trying to use a format in compute shaders that the hardware doesn't support. D3D11_0 is the -last- feature level that HW supports, it's the -minimum- feature level the game game supports, so there's a possibility the actual HW is missing something.

I tried. But it doest'n work, too I also tried adding the files "dxgi.ll , d3d11.ll" to the folder Win64.
And a new error appears:
a d3d11-compatible gpu (feature level 11.0 shader model 5.0) is required to run the engine

On the official page it says: This product has been moved to a legacy support model and no additional driver releases are planned.

I've already tried :(

OP, you can't use DXVK, HD 6900 doesn't support Vulkan for DXVK to work.
You can only hope that Stray can be made to run on DX11 and it requires Feature Level 11_0.

I'd also encourage you installing the NimeZ drivers for legacy GPUs.

You have given me hope :D

Okay, thank you :)

Ok, after googling a bit, Stray is by default a DX11 game. DX12 is only possible through commandline, but it's only useful on Steam Deck (AMD on Linux in general maybe?) and possibly nowhere else.

So I can only encourage you to install and run the latest NimeZ drivers off Guru3D and THEN trying Stray again.

I'm going to try, I hope it works, thanks ^^

Can you not upgrade your GPU?
It's a decade old. So something more modern would not even be that expensive.

just get a cheap Rx 5500xt or rx 580, those are only like $100 something right now
