I am having rendering issues

[Vikng412]

I am using an app called spotiflyer (https://github.com/Shabinder/SpotiFlyer) on my desktop but for some reason the app doesn't load any visual content (in a region cursor changes to I-cursor). Developer suggested that I report it here as he said app is working fine the problem is with rendering.

@Vikng412, @Shabinder does the app work if you do this?

• In the Windows start menu, type environment
• Open the first item
• Click on Environment Variables
• Click on New
• Set SKIKO_RENDER_API as variable name
• Set SOFTWARE as variable value
• Click OK on all windows
• Start SpotiFlyer

As asked here, could you please post your PC specifications?

Could you please give your PC specification? OS version: ? Graphics card: ? Graphics card driver version: ?

Example:

Resources that could help fix the issue:

• List of graphics card incompatible with DirectX 12 (From Intel)
• On some graphics card, DirectX 12 won't work if the driver is... too recent (From intel)

Additionally, here are some setups as reported by our users:

Intel HD 4600 20.19.15.5171 GTX 780M 25.21.14.2600

Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Lenovo)  >>> 10.18.10.4252 2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M (Lenovo) >>> 23.21.13.9135

I only have GT730

Intel hd graphics 4600 20.19.15.5171

GeForce GT 635M , windows 10

Could be another issue here. For them, no text were rendered. (Icons, cards, backgrounds were OK)

A user reported the same issue to me (empty white window, Direct3D error), which we resolved using the helpful image above to set their environment variable.

I didn't get their full system specs, but here is their CPU.

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1225 v3 @ 3.20GHz
