After changing the default config to use high resolution sprites the game crashes on startup after displaying 'Cropping bitmaps...'

Hi, it look like the crash comes from graphics driver, as there is no Factorio stacktrace except for crash handling code.

Could you try to open Factorio properties in Steam library and set launch options to following?

Code: Select all

--graphics-quality=high --max-texture-size=8192

I am interested to know if it will work with reduced max texture size, since you seem to have enough VRAM.
If that still doesn't work you can use

Code: Select all

--graphics-quality=normal

to switch back to normal resolution sprites.

That fixed it! Using the open source Radeon drivers for an AMD 6970 card if that helps.

Thanks

Edit: Launching with --max-texture-size=16384 also seems to work (I think this is the max texture size my card supports).

Running

Code: Select all

glxinfo -l | grep -i texture | grep -i max

outputs:

Hmm, --max-texture-size=16384 is what it used by default. Not sure why it started to work then, but I am glad it works

[pcmaster160]

I figured it out. At some point in config.ini the value video-memory-usage was changed from all to high. When it is on all and I launch (even with --max-texture-size=16384) the game will crash on startup. However if I lower the value to high the game will launch again.

Hopefully if anyone ever finds this thread in the future this will help!
