Please help!

32 bit or 64 but system? We have had a few users reporting it not starting. Unfortunately due to the limited amount of hardware we have as devs we couldn’t test on every possible system.

64 bit, previous versions worked fine.

Looks like the game crashes inside the Ogre initialization.
What kind of graphics card you have?

Yeah i knew its going to be a problem
I am using Intel integrated hd graphic

Darn intel. We suspect intel in the bug involving clouds not showing up aswell we all have Nvidia cards except one of us.

I have some pretty new intel on my laptop and it works fine there (except the clouds are a bit too opaque).

I’ll try it on my brothers AMD laptop and hope its gonna work.
EDIT: Its working with like 10 fps

idk if it has to do with the file download or what ever but i have a amd fx 8350 with a rx 480 and 32gb of ram and it still doesn’t render the clouds the fact you can’t change the settings is a bit odd as well… just confused as to why this is a issue and why you cant even change it. Another tiny issue… it won’t let me eat smaller things even when i am in the “G” mode.

It’s a known issue that the clouds don’t work on amd:

Settings have not bee implemented yet:

The engulfing size calculation is based on organelle count and not visible size.
