Invalid Graphics card

Do you have the Steam version? Or Standalone (from our website)? When using the Steam version, it should use the Nvidia card automatically, as long as all drivers for your Nvidia card are installed correctly (otherwise the Nvidia does not work at all). Make sure no beta is selected, since some beta versions don't use the automatic graphics card assignment.
It's definitely recommendable to use the Nvidia GT instead of the integrated Intel HD
When using the Standalone, you have to assign the Nvidia card manually to the game. Either by rightclicking on the "Rising World.exe" and selecting to run it with the dedicated or "high performance" graphics processor, or by changing this setting in the Nvidia Control Panel (go to "Manage 3D Settings" and either assign the Nvidia card globally, or manually to "Rising World" as well as to the "Java.exe".

Oh okay, well the "newest-old-exe" does not have the automatic graphics card assignment indeed. Please try this: Unselect the "newest-old-exe" version (so that no beta is selected at all), then go into your Rising World folder (steam/steamapps/common/risingworld) into the "java" subfolder, then "bin", and copy the file called "msvcr100.dll" (maybe it's just called "msvcr100"). Paste this file into the Rising World main directory (where you also find the "risingworldx64.exe"), and try to start the game again. Does it work now?

Hmm.. did you also unselect the beta, or in other words, selected "None"?

Okay, so changing to "None" the first time caused the game to not start at all, getting an error with "stopped working" (is that correct)? After adding the "msvcr100.dll" manually to the game directory (but keeping "None" as beta) the game was able to start at least (so you no longer get the "stopped working" error), but you're getting stuck at an "Invalid graphics card" message? Or did I get something wrong?
Please have a look if there is a file called "errorlog" in your game directory. If it is there, please paste the content here (or if there are multiple files, please post the content of the latest one)

this is completely right.

Alright, thanks for the feedback

I can't find an errorlog, although there is a map called "logs" but the files in there aren't called errorlog either. they are called "logexe" saying the following,not sure if this might be usefull?:

Thanks for posting the exe log, unfortunately there are no useful information in it
So if automatic detection does not work, please try this: Open your Nvidia Control Panel (rightclick on it or on the Experience icon in your tray), then go to "Manage 3D Settings" on the left side (under 3D Settings). Now you can either assign the "High performance Nvidia processor" globally, or alternatively go to the "Program Settings" tab. There you can click the "Add" button next to the program selection, and select the "risingworldx64.exe" (steam/steamapps/common/risingworld/risingworldx64.exe) as well as the "java.exe" from the subfolder in the game directory (steam/steamapps/common/risingworld/java/bin/java.exe). Select for both programs the "High performance Nvidia processor". Now try to run the game, you should no longer run into the error message now (though I'm wondering why the automatic detection does not work oO).
If you get the error message again, try to install the latest Nvidia driver. If it still does not work, please let me know

That's strange.. when even setting the "Preferred graphics processor" in the "Global Settings" tab (in your Nvidia Control Panel) to "High-performance NVIDIA processor" does not work, there seems to be an issue with the driver, or maybe the issue is caused by Windows itself (if "Power saver" is enabled in the Power Options in your system control panel, for example). Also make sure that your laptop is connected to an AC outlet.
Please try to download the Nvidia driver manually from the Nvidia homepage: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
Maybe it's recommendable to do a clean driver reinstall.

Uninstall the game , Go into the steam files / common and remove the Rising world directory (It leaves stuff behind even after an uninstall ) then reinstall the game from scratch. Before you reinstall the game turn off the betas and be sure you have the latest 64 bit version of java installed.

Do you have a separate monitor connected to your laptop? If so, please try if the issue still persist after disconnecting your monitor. You could also try to completely uninstall your Nvidia driver before installing the latest version from the Nvidia homepage.
If you decide to reinstall the game, make sure you copy the msvcr100.dll manually into the game directory again, otherwise you will eventually run into the same start issues as before.

There is a way to play the game with the Intel HD graphics though (as long as you have at least an Intel HD 3000 or 4000, it requires you to install the latest Intel driver), however, it would be a pity if you can't use the more powerful dedicated gpu.

Thanks for saying but i didn't forget

Hehe, was just to make assurance double sure

Quote from BaByMaN1997

I'll have a look at this then, hoping it will work. I'm excited to play the game

After a clean driver install, you can eventually also use the Optimus tools to find out which graphics card is used in general http://forums.laptopvideo2go.c…s-finally-in-users-hands/
