Issues fixed

The game crashes when starting a match while it’s still loading.

Reduce "Texture quality" to "LOW"[1]
  1. Run RIPD.exe
  2. Go to "HELP & OPTIONS" - "VIDEO" - "ADVANCED SETTINGS".
  3. Select LOW in "Texture quality".
  4. Save settings.

Issues unresolved

The game opens a white window and then shuts down.

Switch the GPU and try running the game.[2]
The game can only run on certain GPUs. The exact reason is not known, but there is a list of which ones work:
  1. Nvidia RTX 3070 Laptop: There are no graphical glitches in the interface. However, it only runs if Nvidia Optimus is disabled with MUX SWITCH, otherwise it will not start. In addition, you can only start a game with Textures in “LOW”.
  2. Intel Iris Xe Graphics: The game runs with “High” graphics but the performance is low. Also, the interface has visual glitches, making it unreadable.
  3. Asus Rog Ally: Like Nvidia, it only runs with “LOW” in "texture", and there are no glitches in the interface.

Notes

  1. When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/237590/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (237590) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
