Uncaught exception: Ran out of GPU memory, try using smaller or fewer images.

I’m running into this problem lately, having plenty GPU available. Most of the time I try to launch these games, 1982 or Echoes +, from Binary Zoo, I get this message:

Uncaught exception: Ran out of GPU memory, try using smaller or fewer images.

I reached out to them and they basically informed me that was something in my Windows config or in my PC, but couldn’t tell what.

Im not a dev pr a programmer, anyone knows what I can try, or if there is an easy fix I can apply?

tbh probably not the best place to ask this question as we focus on game dev not tech support.

That being said if it just started happening it may be a driver issue. I would suggest rechecking your graphics driver but that is about the best I could suggest. Its quite a broad exception so without more info about not just the game but the state of your system I can not provide anything more helpful.

Thanks @grotlover2 . The problem resided in the Steam app. Downloaded both games from their independent site, launched their independet .exe without going thru Steam, and problem solved.
