Silent Hunter III CTD when using dedicated graphics.

toni007 · 02-24-18, 07:46 AM

So guys I have an issue on my new laptop (using windows 10 64 bit), when I start career and load a game to play, it crashes to desktop during loading when I am using my GTX960M laptop GPU. I tried to do things to fix it in Nvidia Control Panel and I did switch to integrated graphics and the game works (no ctd) but on low FPS so its not really a fix. For some reason game crashes when using GTX 960M (except in training room, I can play all training rooms without crashes, only career is giving me CTD, strange...) So is there anything I can do about it (any nvidia user here?) or should I go to play SH4? :/

your SH III is with or without mod ?

Fresh install ?
4 giga patch aswell ? ...

Compatibility thing is useless i played SH III without them for years without problem so i wont ask you about that.

Fresh install ? did you start a school mission before modding your game ? ....

Its GWX 3.0.
Il try 4GB patch and see if it helps.
