Issues fixed
Poor Performance on Laptops with Nvidia Optimus
- Occurs when Cities: Skylines defaults to Intel integrated graphics instead of Nvidia discrete graphics.
Manually select discrete graphics in Nvidia Control Panel[citation needed] |
---|
|
Steam Overlay does not work
Disable the other overlays (Raptr, Dxtory, Fraps, MSI Afterburner, etc.)[citation needed] |
---|
Random crashes
Upgrade to more than 8GB RAM[3] |
---|
On 8GB RAM you must play vanilla game without mods or assets and always under 20k pop to avoid crashes. |
