Alternatively, delete the config folder, this will force the game to create new ones. I see Engine.ini seems to be new and contains the paths for these plugins (for EA at least). Update 5 is a huge update and these updates don't always change or update the config files properly.
The outcome is that now I'm able get it to main manu however when I start the game it crash. At least this time unreal collect error logs so we will see
Made it so when a game running on DX12 detects an incompatible Intel graphics card it will set the renderer to DX11 instead, this is to solve crashes on Start-up or Loading due to DX12 incompatibility.
If you are on an Intel GPU and you’re running the game completely fine in DX12, you can still force it by adding the following launch options:
d3d12
DX12
Found a solution that worked for me.
The solution:
I navigated to Windows/System32 and replaced D3DCompiler_43.dll.
Found a new copy of the .dll from here: https://www.dll-files.com/d3dcompiler_43.dll.html
How i found the solution:
-Looked at the FactoryGame.log crash log.
-Debugged the crash using Dependency Walker.

Now after clicking launch nothing happens, just steam status blinks from blue to green and back, and that's it
Fun fact: actual Win7 obsolescence as gaming platform for new games happens basically at the same time M$ drops official support for Win10... I hope this will finally shut up all people saying "Why are you even using Win7, switch to Win10" :D
I hate M$, there was no real need for customers in win10/win11. And obsolescence in these cases are completely artificial.
M$ has lost search engine war, because they were to late on the battlefield, and now they forcibly integrate this into the OS.
Their new browser, it seems to be, is treated with some kind of priority by OS in such, that OS is localizing system resources much more readily, which in turn makes edge more responsive.
Not mentioning that M$ locked my account behind my phone number. Even though I could normally recover access to my account by answering security questions, by recovery email, they refused giving me access without me giving them my phone number.
Some few month ago they changed policy regarding commercial email/office365 services. My company uses their e-mail/teams services and now each user is required to give to M$ a phone number for "security reasons" just to have access to teams/outlook emails. Otherwise you cannot use them, and cannot work. I used work phone number, fk them.
All of these are dirty practices made to exploit you for more profit for the M$. I wish US government did to M$ same as it did to Standard Oil almost a century ago.
I myself have a laptop with linux, but it's by no means a gaming laptop. I specially kept windows 7 on a PC as gaming rig, but it indeed looses games that can be run on it each year. Looks like I will have to try win10 but only with some debloating scipts/software run on it, like atlas etc, which I couldn't fully trust without scrutinizing them.
We need to popularize GNU and linux. Unfortunately, our generation is lost, I have lots of friend who are completely inert when it comes to OS. They even refuse to try it.
So all forces have to be directed to new generations. In schools etc.
I've read somewhere that M$ is sponsoring schools in US by giving free licenses to os and minecraft, making children to feel comfortable in M$ ecosystem. Dirty corporation.
It's the server so I don't even need a recent graphic card and I upgraded the laptop with a ssd so it runs smoothly.
For those crying about "why don't you simply take a new version of windows?"
2 simple reasons :
- I don't want an OS integrating a shop and updating its policy to enforce their rights to check and delete your files on your computers as they want. Those are the only novelties in 8 and 10.
- This laptop is simply old enough to not have drivers updated to work with anything above windows 8 so I just can't use 10 or 11, it won't work.
Also if you really think that because microsoft stops updating something it becomes unsafe, remember that security failures happens because of new features badly implemented creating security problems.
It's no wonder that many country security services don't use recent OS and keep old ones. Old stuff had its problems resolved long ago.
