Green flickering
Hey been having trouble getting FTL to run on my new Surface. I'm running with Intel UHD 615 graphics. When I start the game, the entire game flickers green and with green bars across the screen. I have installed latest drivers as well as reinstalled them, I've reinstalled FTL, and I have tried running it in both compatibility mode and as admin. What am I missing?

I completely uninstalled the driver in the device manager, and then installed the latest driver from the Intel website (it's recommended to disable the internet connection after the driver has been uninstalled, so windows 10 doesn't download the OEM driver automatically).

I had no issues running the game afterwards, neither on the laptop screen nor on the external screen.

The game's requirements recommends a dedicated graphics card.

It says some integrated graphics do work, maybe uhd 615 is one that doesn't.

I have the same issue with Intel UHD graphics 605. Requested a refund as the game is unplayable, but i would really like to find a solution...

managed to switch to the full screen (native) setting, even though i couldn't see. it offers an additional menu which i assume was a restart prompt. after restarting the game, it seems to be working fine.

I have been having this issue too. Going to fullscreen native did fix it. I ran it on this computer before and haven't had any issues, though it's been a couple months since I last played it.
