Sonic Frontiers graphical issues on Intel Iris Plus Graphics

DarkSun_Peac — Mon, 21 Nov 2022 19:53:21 GMT

So, I've been having graphical issues with Sonic Frontiers on Iris Plus Graphics (See the following tweet, it basically explains what's going on: https://twitter.com/WatchSilasTV/status/1590094138657378304), and it only happens with this game, every other game works like a charm with my GPU except this one

I've tried the DXVK fix but that only crashes my game, and I'm already aware that ARC GPUs have a driver that fixes this issue--as well as some other graphical issues the game has, but obviously I can't install that for Iris Plus Graphics; so I was wondering if there was any other solution that I could try? Or if there's any word on there being a driver update to make the game compatible with my GPU? Any sort of help works, thanks!

Hello, thank you so much for looking into this

With this message I have attached the Detailed View scan of the Support Utility and the Command Center's report. Some of the other troubleshooting that I have tried was that I have installed the latest drivers and I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, and none of those solutions have worked.

On the Detailed View scan, it will say that I'm operating on a mac, though this is through bootcamp, so I'm really running things through Windows 10 and not macOS, and I've never had a problem like this with a game up until now, even with most recent releases.

With that said, those are the troubleshooting steps I have followed and I have generated the reports that were asked of me as well; if you need anything else from my system please let me know. Thank you so much for the help so far.

Thank you for all the information provided.

To confirm, even though you have re-installed the driver, have you performed a clean installation of the latest graphics drivers?

If you have not, here are the steps: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000057389/graphics.html

Graphics driver version 31.0.101.3790/31.0.101.2114: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19344/intel-graphics-windows-dch-drivers.html

Let me know of the outcome.

Best regards,

Hello,

So, I have tried to do a clean install of my drivers, and the whole game is still pretty much dark; it's only Sonic Frontiers that has this issue too, i tried it with the rest of my games and they work just fine

Hello,

All I had to do was start up the game, so I basically opened up Steam, booted up Sonic Frontiers, went into the open zone, and it was almost pitch black, along with a few other graphical issues but that was the main one.

I hope the information helps, thanks!
