[Alpha 16.2] Game will not launch get to a loading screen and hangs.

Will not launch on Laptop:
Windows 10
Intel i3-8130 @2.2ghz
12 gb Ram
Intel onboard graphics cards.

I tried the suggested edits and verification on the Steam discussion pages.

After the Shapez 2 logo splash screen I get a black loading screen and the Game crashes there. Never loads the menu or selections page.

My Wife's laptop wwould hang on the new game creation we just tried the disable SDK suggestions and that allowed her laptop to actually load the game.

Thanks for the fun game I have played on my bigger gaming machine and seems to work out. I do enjoy the game alot I like the new 2 layer stack hopefully you can make it a bit more older laptop friendly.

Thanks!

Hi Chilly, it is difficult to give you any further suggestions, if you say you already tried the https://discord.com/channels/1000343719314198548/1201822000037765160 steps.
The GPU of the i3 seems to be pretty low, and may just be too low to run the game.

Were you able to play the Steam Demo on this device?

No I am not.

It's a shame I really like the game and would be great to play on older devices. I was able to test out the game on a more powerful PC and really like it.

i'm looking at that , i'm just wondering .
i saw this graphic card can output high resolution , what is you resolution for your screen . Maybe going a notch down would help , aka 720p .
3 years ago someone resolved issue with that integrated card , that a lot of people seem to find to be a good solutions , they reverted back to previous driver .

You may want to look at DXVK , also . seem to resolve issue with game not running on that particular integrated card .
