Update the GPU driver
Info | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
Our minimum driver version is 417.35 (for Nvidia GPUs). If you want to be able to use ArtEngine, you need to have this driver installed or a more recent one. |
Some of our users have had issues when launching the build and updating the GPU drivers fixed the issues. To do so:
- Open up GeForce Experience (if you are using an Nvidia GPU)
- Navigate to the 'Drivers' tab
- Click 'Check for updates'
- Click 'Download' if an update has been found
- Wait for the update to be finished
- Launch the program again
Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 - Update 3
Make sure that you have the right C++ redistributables installed. You can download them here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53587.
Make sure that you have admin privileges when launching the build
Some users experience issues with services not running if they are administrators. So make sure (if you can) that you have admin privileges when executing the build.
Run the build through a specific command
To try the fix listed in this step, you must install GitBash. It is a custom command line client. You can install it with all the default settings.
Once GitBash is installed, you need to perform the following steps to launch the build through GitBash:
- Access the folder:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|

/AppData/Roaming/.artomatix/Versions/ArtEngine/{Most Recent Build} |
- Copy, paste and execute the following command:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|

./Artomatix.ArtEngine.exe $(cat serial) ../../../Config/Licence |
Update the Preferred Graphic Processor
- Right Click on your desktop.
- Click NVIDIA Control Panel.
- Click Manage 3D Settings on the left menu.
- Click on the Preferred graphics processor drop down menu under the Global Settings tab.
- Select High-performance NVIDIA processor from the list.
- Launch the application.
Re-install ArtEngine
If the above fixes still do not work, try re-installing ArtEngine.
