White Screen W11

[Fire_Estel]

Hi y'all
I really hope you can help me with this. A friend of mine just bought me this game but, for some kind of reason when I try to launch it, the game just freezes on a white screen. I've tried to run it as an admin and exactly the same problem.
My PC is an i7 with a 3070ti W11 home.

Thanks for the help in advance!

***Try this if you have integrated graphics as well a dedicated GPU***

WINDOWS BUTTON >> SYSTEM SETTINGS >> GRAPHICS >> ADD AN APP >> browse file explorer until you get to your ICONOCLASTS.EXE file >> choose HIGH PERFORMANCE (your real GPU, NOT THE INTEGRATED GRAPHICS) >> SAVE.

***Where is the .exe game executable in Windows 11?***

C://Program Files x86 >> Steam >> Steamapps >> common >> Iconoclasts

Hi Fire_Estel,

Sorry no one got back to you in so long. I think this game is truly amazing and first played it a few years ago. I have bought it for friends as a gift during past Steam sales. I was about to replay it when I had the same problem as you. I couldn’t find a fix online. It’s a ‘labor of love’ indy game by a brilliant solo developer who has probably moved on, so I don’t fault him at all.

I am on a Windows 11 MSI laptop with an RTX 3050 and an integrated graphics system for power efficiency. It turns out Windows was forcing the game into running on the integrated graphics, which led to my white screen. If you also have integrated graphics, this could be the culprit.

For good measure, in File Explorer, I right-clicked Iconoclasts.exe and selected PROPERTIES >> chose the COMPATIBILITY tab >> and checked the box for RUN THIS PROGRAM IN COMPATIBILITY MODE FOR: >> and I selected WINDOWS 8. I'm honestly not sure if this step I necessary, but "needs must," right?

Good luck with getting it to work and thank your friend who purchased it for you. I wish I had more friends like that.
