Hello after updating Factorio from 0.16.51 to 0.17+ the game wont start.
0.16.51 works very well. The game - vanilla.


PC are based on low hardware - i play in the job xd (x64 , Pentium G2020 and Intel graphics, 8 GB ram, windows 8)


" Failed to compile shader
'C:/Intel/Factorio_x64_0.17.3/Dactorio_0.17.3/data/core/graphics/shaders/mipmap-gen-rygDXT.frag' .
ERROR: 0:163: 'Error' : Cannot offset into vector
ERROR: 0:168: 'Error' : Cannot offset into vector "

Anyone knows any solution how to run game with the new update 0.17+ ?

You did not post a log but searching for your CPU shows that it's now below minimum required by the game.
Your GPU doesn't support necessary API's for the new game engine.

I think Ivy Bridge is even DirectX 11 compatible, but it doesn't have drivers for OpenGL 3.3 on Windows.
Save d3dcompiler_47.dll next to factorio.exe to make it work with DirectX
