• Summary / Title: Weapon effects don't show up
  • Description: There are no weapon effects in both the ship design screen and the actual battles. Most of the time none of them show up, sometimes only laser does, and sometimes all of them show up. Special weapons like the shield disruptor (I think) when you go for antimatter weapons do show up as well though. Audio effects are fine.
  • Steps to Reproduce: Practically start up any game and it will happen, even unmodded and verified.
  • Reproducibility: 4/5
  • Version: V1.2.23 S5 Gold-Public

    I am aware that some people have fixed it by updating their AMD drivers, but I am using an Intel surface book so I can't do that.

    I've started a thread on steam but to no avail. The person recommended me to update my Intel graphics card and Nvidia but neither worked for me

    Here's the link.
