Crashes once you finish the intro.

[rigid wadi]

I don't know what this is, but it is infuriating.

[stray widget]

had the same here and when talked with @kindred halo we kinda came in to conclusion i have a too old of GPU and processor even tho on steam says a radeon 570 is good enough while i have a 580

[kindred halo]

Acually id wait on that

Turns out this is also happening to other peoples PCs with known good parts

Like
I mean REALLY good parts too

I thought originally it was your PC and its age

But im coming to find out thats not entirely the case

[stray widget]

well i hope some dev could give us a light then about being a actual issue because i honestly only saw me having that problem until this post

[kindred halo]

Mcruz also has this issue

Its coming to light more and more it seems

[stray widget]

wait but isn´t he streaming right now?

[kindred halo]

I have no idea how he fixed it is the issue

[chrome granite]

i pray this gets finished, ive been hyped for this game and it hurt to see this error

[high echo]

he switched to his other pc

[light snow]

Hi unreg

Did u get it fixed yet

[kindred halo]

Hmm
I wonder if its a Radeon card issue then

[chrome granite]

i thinks it’s dedicated ram issue, the game requires 4gb minimum and a lot of graphics cards have 4gb max, and some ram is always being used so it can’t reach the 4gb threshold it needs, just a guess, also i don’t know jack squat about computers so don’t take my words as 100% accurate

[lucid crown]

I got a RX580 2048SP 8gb and i get the same error

[chrome granite]

okay so i am wrong lol, i figured but hey, it was an idea, guess ill just wait for them to patch the problem

[kindred halo]

Well yes but ive seen 8gb cards do this too

Im thinking its driver related to specific cards

[light snow]

Is it dedicated tho

Not shared

If the 8 gb isnt dedicated it wont work

Email nascar 25, send ur dxdiag doc, they can check for u and they respond straight up if ur device can handle it or not

Sadly I cannot 😢

[light snow]

I beg your pardon

[kindred halo]

Your using integrated graphics yes?

[light snow]

Yes I think so

[kindred halo]

Can you play
Rdr2 on this laptop for example?

Trying to get an idea what its capeable of

[light snow]

Haven't tried it
It can run the first halo game remastered and fortnite

[kindred halo]

I hate to say this

But this laptop isnt equipt enough for NASCAR 25

I have a laptop similar to this (12th gen instead of 11th)

[light snow]

Hurts... but yeah its true
Thx for the help tho

[kindred halo]

No problem

Sorry to let ya down tho

[light snow]

I was bound to figure out at some point dw ahahaha

[kindred halo]

You can play PS2 games on this tho

If you want you should try to win a championship in all of them in career mode

This can last you years

Its what kept me sane durring the Motorsport Games days

[light snow]

Lol I just coped with heat 5 😭

[kindred halo]

Tbh that game isnt a bad choice either

I just like the old EA games

[light snow]

Yeah same
They are the bar the games have to beat nowadays

[kindred halo]

I do believe 25 got it closer than the rest

Its along the lines of Thunder 2002

[light snow]

I believe near the end of the iracing agreement it will surpass 04 and 03

[kindred halo]

Probably by 27 or 28

Im hoping

[sinful relic]

I have a 580 and have also had the same issue. I've tried just about everything.

I'm no expert at all but it would make sense that our gpus would be too old. While the game is built to run a gpu of our caliber, AMD stopped supporting pre-RDNA drivers for gpus like the RX580 in 2023. The only updates that come now are bug fixes, meaning the drivers that the 580 carries likely don't support a newer game like NASCAR 25.

TLDR; game is supposed to be able to run our gpu but because amd doesnt support it, it doesnt have the new drivers necessary to do so

[stray widget]

nascar 25 is the first game my RX580 did´t run all other games i play are running nice and i play stuff like F1 25, Sonic Racing Crossworlds, WWE 2K25, Inazuma Eleven Victory Road

it sucks but i guess i just deal with it i was only hoping to force myself in a upgrade around GTA 6 time when i somewhat know what i would need to run it

[sinful relic]

Same for me as well

I’ve had issues with Forza Motorsport but that was fixed by installing older drivers. That didn’t work for NASCAR ‘25

[hearty karma]

So is it over for us?

[hearty karma]

Please update us here if anyone manages to fix the issue and get it working

[kindred halo]

I dont own a PC with these specs but i will try my best

[hearty karma]

Any help will be appreciated, I could just get a refund but I'll wait a few days for a fix, this is a game I really want to play and have been for a long time

[kindred halo]

For now id refund it and maybe think about a PC upgrade

From what i can find out, these cards havent had propper updates and support for a few years now

They do get updates yes

But i dont believe this covers UE5

Some UE5 features or things inside it might not agree with these cards in some way or something along the lines of that

I will try to dig more into this tho from a technical standpoint

[hearty karma]

Thanks

[stray widget]

not sure it is linked but today´s game update mention problem that somewhat looks to the one we had

[sinful relic]

the update fixed the game for me!

[stray widget]

so now it opens

[sinful relic]

yep. was able to play it and everything, super fun game!

[kindred halo]

I knew it was some sort of card issue
