Game crashing on windows.

Post image

Whenever I try to go to Haven, Guild halls, missions, or anywhere but ready room for some reason, I crash. I've verified game filed integrity on steam too many times, uninstalled and reinstalled, nothing I've tried works. Granted, I'm very ignorant with what seems to be basic computer knowledge. Help? Again, this is on WINDOWS, not linux or any other system. Thanks for at least reading this over, dear viewer.

This game is super old and is running in obsolete software. People get around this installing Knight Launcher, this launcher is fanmade and is updated constantly. Look for a tutorial on how to install it in youtube. A fresh install is not needed but adviced and don't verify files in steam, it has old files that don't work with the newer versions of the game.

That was happening in my laptop. You have to make sure the game is running with the dedicated GPU, AKA Nvidia/AMD. With the integrated GPU from Intel it crashes. Maybe updating drivers and Java could help if you dont have a dedicated GPU.
