FlightControl Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I know the Intel graphics HD 520 is not supported by DCS, but since i am on a holiday, i have here only a surface 4 at my disposal, which contains only an intel HD 520 graphics chip embedded in the motherboard. DCS loads fine to the menus. But when i run a mission, i get black textures. Does anybody know or have an idea how i can visualize these textures? The simulation runs, but i get no textures... All black. I do see the smoke of the ground vehicles though... Sven [TABLE][sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]| Join MOOSE community on: DISCORD :thumbup: Website of the MOOSE LUA Framework. MOOSE framework Downloads.

SkateZilla Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 The GPU is Below Minimum Spec, Most Intel HD Graphics Blocks are not sufficient to run DCS, even on it's lowest settings due to Memory management.

Ok. Thank You for your answer. It was worth to ask. Of I would have a machine with 16GB ram, do you think the hd 520 would perform. I should try that at a shop.

FlightControl Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) Now. That being said... I run dcs world successfully on a much lower end hp laptop with 8GB ram and an intel hd 5200... A pavillion G840... I see posts at other forums and sites with the same issues, but larger machines with process with the intel drivers... So can somebody please run a test... If somebody has a laptop with an intel hd 520 and +8Gb (preferred 16Gb) ram... Does dcs world run on this machine?

BaD CrC Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Well at least my Surface Pro 4 is also giving me black textures (but for the cockpit and clouds). I am using it to edit missions while looking at the result on another computer. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlightControl Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 How much ram does your machine have? When you run dxdiag. How much gb is reported for the 520?

BaD CrC Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 On mine it says 4187Mb on the display tab. I guess that's shared. Edit: Total memory for the system is 8192Mb. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlightControl Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Yes it is. But there should not be a memory problem, since my much older intel hd 5200 has only 2GB and runs dcs world perfectly in low settings (which is perfect for my advanced moose framework scripting testing ) Mine has only 4GB memory but an i5 in the hood.

FlightControl Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 For your information, I've done a post about this problem on the intel support communities.

FlightControl Posted September 3, 2016 Author Share Posted September 3, 2016 Got a response from an intel support group specialist who wants to have a look at this problem ... Please check the underlying link. Intel asks to generate a graphics report and attach it on the post. https://communities.intel.com/thread/105780 If somebody is reading this, and you have a HD 520 graphics processor on your board, could you help with this? thanks in advance!

FlightControl Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 Is there any chance that DCS world would check beside the "dedicated" video memory on HD 520 video cards (on most laptops), also the "shared" video memory? This fix would help to resolve the "black textures" problem. Laptops like a surface pro 4 don't have a BIOS that allows to increase the dedicated video memory allocated to the video card. So, for most surface 4 pcs, the dedicated video memory is about 128MB, but with a share video memory much bigger (2GB to 4GB). That causes the game to run perfectly on an HD520, but with black textures, unfortunately ... Anybody who knows how to "fool" the DCS world game on this matter?

FlightControl Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 Forget what i wrote, i disabled the nvidia card on my laptop, and now i use the 128MB dedicated video memory using the built-in HD4600 video card. And DCS world runs flawlessly using that setup. A bit slower though, but still playable. So, the problem must be with the HD520 driver, regardless of the dedicated video memory allocated.
