Your CPU may be below required specification for this game. If what I read is correct; 1.8Ghz may not be high enough for the game to run its physics.

Edit:
See Store page:
Minimum requirements clearly state that you need at minimum 3.0Ghz processor speed.

Hi, maybe read this "similar" problem :

If you are using integrated HD intel Graphic ^^ = The Devs are trying to make it work for some.

Integrated graphics and SE don't play well, your RAM is a little low but other than that your system spec's seem fine.

Have you tried a new world no mods, no planets, and graphics set to low? If not try that and see if you get a different result. If the game loads up ok, then start slowing tweaking the graphics up until you see the issue again.

Experiment - not sure if this will help though. I suspect it's your graphics chipset causing the issue.

It's a cool way to say "All is black"

You will have to wait for a fix and send all to the Devs on the support Portal or by Email to have a Dev reply.

!!!!!FIXED!!!!!

I manually updated drivers from intel website and restarted system and my textures are loading perfectly. I have hp laptop with intel uhd620.

to manually install follow this guide:

https://www.howtogeek.com/343287/how-to-fix-the-driver-being-installed-is-not-validated-for-this-computer-on-intel-computers/

For some reason the HP version of the same driver update wasn't working.

I guess Intel was working on it all along.

Post if this works for you guys too.

ps.. The name of the .inf in my extracted folder was actually iigd_dch.inf

Good luck and happy engineering.

You are a bit late with this one and usually the OP ask for a lock on old dead discussion.

Never be shy to create a new discussion, one year is old cause the game is not the same at all now.

Tho I will keep this one if no reports I recommend to read the forum rules about :Necroing: to know what is going on when you post in a "Dead" discussion.
