Hello, I'm asking for help getting Ultraforge up and running. I bought a new, fast computer with a Geforce 4090 and large memory and made all the updates, including Vulcan. But I can't start the program because it aborts with the error message: <class VPC::VException> Vulkan exception "limit exceeded" occurred. Make sure that your graphics card drivers are updated to the latest version and that Vulkan 1.0.0.0 is supported on your machine.
I've already written to support twice, but I haven't received an answer. The check program for Ultraforge reports to me the best conditions for the program to function.Thank you for some help.

I had the same problem a few weeks ago after installing the latest UF version. The problem is that UF always chooses the integrated GFX card instead of the discrete Nvidia GFX card, even if you configure the graphics parameter to start UF with the discrete GFX card.
On my Alienware laptop with a 3080Ti, the GFX card is set to Auto, so the only solution I found for UF is to switch GFX cards on the fly and force Windows 11 to run with the discrete GFX. Then 'magically' UF works perfectly.

Thank you for the answer. Did I understand that correctly: you should switch the two graphics cards on the motherboard?
In the task manager I actually found GPU 0 from the computer and GPU1 was the NVIDIA, that could be the hierarchy. All settings tried in NVIDIA/Global Settings and Program Settings UF did not bring a solution

No, you don't need to swap cards, you need to open the graphics settings and force Windows to run on the NVIDIA GPU by default instead of the integrated GPU; this disables the integrated GPU and even Notepad will run on the NVIDIA GPU and UF should work.

Thank you very much for the answer. I selected the Ultraforgex64 under System/Screen/Graphics and set it to high performance, where it displays Nvidia RTX 4090. Unfortunately, even after restarting it has the same error and does not start.
Do I have to do the graphics card settings somewhere else?

I have an Alienware laptop, so it is very easy to switch GPUs by just pressing an icon.
You can try changing the default GPU for the operating system in the BIOS.
Unfortunately, I cannot help you more.

Thank you very much for your help, that was very kind of you. I don't know whether I dare to access the bios and whether I can make these settings correctly. It's just a shame that support doesn't respond at all. I wish you all the best and have fun with graphics on the computer. Greetings from Bavaria

Here's what I did to overcome the <class VPC::VException> Vulkan exception "limit exceeded" error, following up on STEP08's very helpful answers. I have a laptop Geforce 4080 graphics card along with an integrated card. The Windows Display settings didn't offer any way to force the use of the Geforce 4080 for all applications as recommended by STEPH08. However the NVIDIA Control Panel App gives an interface under 3D Settings/Manage Display Mode to chose to use of the NVIDIA GPU only. That worked fine and Ultraforge 1001 ran great. A day later I chanced to restart my laptop and Ultraforge loaded properly but failed to make an image because of lack of memory. I fixed that by going to Windows Settings/Display and selecting display 2. That worked. This option did not show until I had used the NVIDIA App to force the GPU.
It's a little more detailed to get things to work, but all is good now. BTW I use the F1 key to turn on the High Performance Mode and get quicker results.

I installed the trial version of Ultraforge. Same Vulcan problem here on a Dell Precision workstation... I tried changing the settings in Nvidia control panel and updating drivers but that didn't help. Looks like I've saved myself some money by not being able to run this software:)
