#Tried alot, game won't run over 15 FPS

The logs show it trying to run through Mesa/llvmpipe which is weird because that's a linux thing
I am not on linux, anything I need to change to stop it from doing that?
Let me have a look, this isn't something I've seen before
Much appreciated!
Can you try launching the game with the "alternate launch" option that steam gives you?
Will do.
It just instantly closes itself the moment I press a button to continue after the console.
Ok, are your graphics drivers up to date?
yep, updated them today
did you have this issue before updating?
Can you go in to the start menu, search "Graphics settings", in that window search for project zomboid and change it to high performance?
can you try turning off that HDR setting?
sure, want me to try running the game now?
please
still a slideshow sadly
do you have any other OpenGL games such as Minecraft Java Edtion installed you can test to see if it's a general issue with OpenGL games?
The game recognises your graphics card so it's not an issue with the game not seeing the card it just doesn't want to use it for some reason
anything to do, or am i waiting on a patch?
I don't think it's a game issue or we would be seeing a lot of this and you are the first I've seen, I think it's a corrupted AMD driver. Are you able to do a clean install of your graphics drivers?
Run the downloaded AMD Software installer.
During the preliminary scan, click on Additional Options or the gear/settings icon.
Select the Factory Reset (or Clean Install) option.
Click Install. The utility will remove previous configurations and restart your PC automatically
Alr I'll do that. Gimme 10 or so
@scarlet tartan this option?
not sure if this one matters
i assume i'd uncheck it
probably best to uncheck it just incase it's a settings issue
Yes please
here ya go
And you've reconfigured everything in the AMD software and Windows to force it to use the GPU?
did that earlier, but i can re-check now
settings may have changed with reinstall
still seem to be how i set em before
theyre set to the GPU
In that case lets focus on the game instead.
Can you try doing a full reinstall?
First, uninstall the game, then go to "Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid" and make sure there are no leftover files or folders there.
After that, go to “%UserProfile%\Zomboid” and delete everything there except the “Saves” folder.
Then just install the game again and see if that helps.
yep
i can do that
@scarlet tartan ok so its fixed
and i know why lol
steam didnt remove the opengl.dll file when i uninstalled it, so i deleted it
seems that the file was corrupted at some point?
I'm glad you got it working, that was a head scratcher
yep, ty for the help!
