What GPU do you have? That sounds like a not enough vram problem. Minimum for this game is 8GB with hardware ray tracing support. I hear there are some hacks to get around it at the expense of visual quality, but without applying said hacks that's what you'll get on a card with less than 8GB vram.

It sounds like you have a 6GB card. It managed to allocate 5GB (probably windows and the driver uses the other GB) and then it failed to allocate any more than that.

The game needs a GPU with 8GB.

An error occurred while running the game. Please help us fix it!

Hi! Brother, maybe it's because it's a gaming laptop. When Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was first launched on the Steam platform, I used this laptop to play for 34.1 hours. But later, new games came out and I switched to other games. Later, when I came back to play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle these days, the error message above appeared. I really don't know what to do?
Does anyone have a solution? Or has the official customer service staff seen my problem?
I haven't finished Indiana Jones and the Great Circle yet!
Can anyone help? Thank you!



I have also tried it.
Method 1. Use DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) to completely remove the 576.88-notebook-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql
graphics card driver to the initial mode,
and then install the old version of the graphics card driver
572.16-notebook-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql

and the same steps as above, I have also installed
576.80-notebook-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql

All of the above still have the problem of insufficient graphics card memory,
Error window content: "Failed to allocate video memory Total allocated: 5036.624 MiB"

Method 2.

I also tried to change bashCopyEditC:\Users\<YourUsername>\Saved Games\MachineGames\TheGreatCircle\base\TheGreatCircleConfig.local

The parameters inside are as shared by netizens,

But I still can't play the game. After changing the parameters, I restarted the Windows 11 home version of the gaming laptop

Have the official customer service staff seen our problem?

Can you fix the software?

Or do other students and players have other ways to overcome this error message and run the game smoothly?
