VULKAN doesn´t work for me

[inkluke08]

help everytime I try to start up Selaco with vulkan I get a fatal error and the message ´device lost´
any ideas about why this happens and how to solve it?

Hey!

Could you list me your specs? This usually means the hardware isn't met. There's still a lot to improve when it comes to VRAM usage for example.

I assume OpenGL works?

[inkluke08]

yes, openGL works for me, although I have some crashes, but it's not a big deal
here are my specs:
Processor 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1255U 1.70 GHz
installed RAM 16,0 GB (15,7 GB usable)
system type 64 bits operating system, x64 based processor

Edition Windows 11 Home
Version 23H2

I play on laptop if its useful for you
sorry for the inconvenience and thank you so much for the help!

You have to give more info about the gpu you are using... I am going to assume it is integrated graphics....

i also got the fatal error in vulcan. could you be using Avast AV? Turned mine off and it works fine now. i5 12600k, rtx 3070 32gb ddr4

the full error opens in a window called Avast Cybercapture and says:

you may need to disable Avast cybercapture to play the game

[inkluke08]

Ok I'll try that, thanks for the advice!

Open the console, type ``vk_device 1``, then restart!

[Ruppi1979]
