Starmade | OpenGL exceeding memory on some cards
Closed, RejectedPublic

Description

With this latest patch, I have been getting this error appear every now and then. Both times it has occurred after attempting to Alt-Tab from the game.

This is part of what the Link says:

"**I have seen this Event Log Message:

An application has requested more GPU memory than is available in the system. That application will now be closed.

"What does it mean?

The most common cause for this issue is that the application exhausted the resources available to it in the GPU. It can also be caused by application sending to the Graphics Card a command stream that can not be broken into small enough pieces to be processed."

Along with recommendations to check/update drivers, and modify the data size coming from the application. *(Which I am doing now) and will keep updated on if I get these errors again

A heard tell of a few other players having some issues related to this patch and tabbing out the game, so, Im unsure if its hardware specific or not to the NVIDIA GT530 card

Don't know anything about this, I'll forward it and see what info is needed to fix it, if that is even possible.
Might just be a faulty setting somewhere, like using a too big VBO size.

According to the author, not happened since then so assuming it got fixed along the way.

EDIT: Might just be that there's not enough VRAM on these cards to run Starmade and other apps in the background.
