The Day Before Out of Video Memory Error Fix Crash Crashing Startup Launch

The Day Before Out of Video Memory Error Fix

A bug involving The Day Before out of video memory error is preventing players from starting the game. When players attempt to launch the game, particularly on PC, it just crashes with a pop-up prompt stating that the user has run out of video memory. In addition, many players on the official The Day Before Discord report seeing the game completely crash their PC upon startup or within the first minute of trying to entering one of the servers. Here’s how to fix the memory error and other crashes for The Day Before for multiple platforms.

[Update] There are reports from users on the official Discord that this is a memory leak error and that it occurs even if the player has a 4000 series Nvidia GPU card.

How to fix The Day Before out of video memory crashing and error

Here are some solutions to fix any “out of video memory” crashing errors for The Day Before:

  • Restart your PC and Steam – You may need to restart your computer or Steam entirely in order to access the game. Sometimes the memory crash will force you to restart anyway.
  • Update graphics drivers – Head to the official website for your specific GPU and make sure that you have the latest drivers installed. An Nvidia Game Ready Driver likely won’t be made for The Day Before for at least several days, so the best you can do is make sure the drivers are up to the latest version.
  • Check minimum requirements – Make sure that your computer has the minimum specs for VRAM and GPU
  • Wait for update – Given that this is a game in Early Access and developer FNTASTIC is relatively new, it’s no surprise that people are having crashing issues at launch. We recommend going to the official Discord, Twitter, and Steam pages for the latest updates from the developer on fixing these errors.

We will update this guide if we learn any specific solutions on how to fix this memory error and other crashing issues in general. Many players reportedly can’t even get past the opening cutscene and playable area without encountering a bug or crash.
