HW acceleration
Mark Ingram replied to grapher's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on Windows threads
I'm not sure why it's skipping the device ("(Skipping unsupported device)" in the log file). There are several reasons for this. I'm actually improving this as we speak, so keep an eye on beta updates. For ref: The Intel 620 should be supported. -

Affinity Photo won't let me do anything with layers

Do you have mouse drivers or software installed? -
Full Blue screen crash... "Thread_Stuck_in_device_driver"
Mark Ingram replied to Carbon's topic in V1 Bugs found on Windows
@Carbon, try the tool @Komatös has suggested. A BSOD can't be caused by an (user-mode) application, only a faulty driver. -
Creating a stack crashes every time with OpenCL

Oh sorry, I saw your comment about an "Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050Ti" and assumed that was the same machine. -

Capture One causes crashes in the NVIDIA driver, see the following post for more information: -

AMD Radeon RX Performance Problems

That OpenCL kernels compile ~10X slower than in previous drivers. -
Affinity Photo crashes in Windows 10
Mark Ingram replied to nielsp's topic in V1 Bugs found on Windows
Changing the renderer to WARP is a work around (WARP is a software renderer, so we recommend using a hardware renderer). If you disable the Capture One Windows Explorer Integration that will also fix it. NVIDIA are aware of the crash. -
AMD Radeon RX Hardware Acceleration
Mark Ingram replied to Mark Ingram's topic in V1 Bugs found on Windows
As I mentioned, there are 2 issues here. One that only affects only AMD Radeon RX 5000 series and later (and as such, we disable hardware acceleration in the application if we detect this card). Any other issue with hardware acceleration is unrelated to this one specific issue (in this thread). I'm not sure what leads to that impression, we develop for both OSes at the same time (and iOS too). Yes, hardware acceleration was available in the macOS builds earlier, but as you mentioned, Windows is more tricky in this regard due to a wider pool of available hardware and drivers. In my previous post I asked you to post a new thread, with some extra information to help us diagnose your specific issue, so we definitely welcome the discussions and the bug reports. -
AMD Radeon RX Hardware Acceleration
Mark Ingram replied to Mark Ingram's topic in V1 Bugs found on Windows
This thread is about AMD drivers, and you're posting an issue about an NVIDIA card, which hopefully you can understand, are two separate things (and off-topic for this thread). AMD have acknowledged the bug I've reported, and are working to fix it. As you're experiencing a different problem, please can you make a new thread so that we can investigate effectively. Please attach your log file (%APPDATA%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\Log.txt) in this new thread. RE: Designer vs Photo. They use hardware acceleration in different ways, so you will likely see differences like this. Finally, if hardware acceleration isn't working, you can disable it in Preferences while we investigate. -
Yes, I use one everyday. I have ASUS ROG Swift PG27U with NVIDIA RTX 2080 SUPER.

Crashes doing just about anything on Win 10
Mark Ingram replied to bbpix's topic in V1 Bugs found on Windows
Have a look in %APPDATA%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\CrashReports and %APPDATA%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\CrashReports\reports to see if there are any crashes stored. If so, can you upload to the forum? Also, check you aren't using any of the third party software that is known to cause problems:
