Monster Hunter Rise is an action role-playing game developed and published by Capcom for the Nintendo Switch. It is the sixth mainline installment in the Monster Hunter series and was released worldwide in March 2021. Since the launch of Monster Hunter Rise on the PC yesterday, the game has run into a number of problems – including the “renderdevicedx12.cpp Fatal D3D” error. We have already discussed a number of other problems with this game, like performance and crashing issues, “failed to save” error and talked about some of the known bugs that the developers are aware of. Unfortunately, the game is also plagued with some graphical issues that we show you here how to fix.
For players using an overclocked GPU there is a good chance that if you are getting the "renderdevicedx12.cpp Fatal D3D" error while playing Monster Hunter Rise on PC. We've come up with a few possible solutions that might come in handy especially for players using overclocked GPUs, so let's go straight to them below.
1. Check PC Requirements
The very first thing that you need to check and make sure is that your GPU is capable of handling the load that you are trying to put on it. You should also make sure that your PC has enough graphics processing to run Monster Hunter Rise smoothly. If not sure, check the minimum PC specifications required to run this game:
| Particulars | Requirements |
| Operating System | Windows 10 (64-bit） |
| Processor | Intel Core i3-4130 or Core i5-3470 or AMD FX-6100 |
| Memory | 8 GB RAM |
| Graphics | NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 (DDR4) or AMD Radeon RX 550 |
| DirectX | Version 12 |
| Network | Broadband Internet connection |
| Storage Space | 23 GB available space |
2. Set Max FPS Limit
It seems to me that another possible reason for this error could be a glitch in your PC or an outdated graphics driver. If you have everything up-to-date, you'll need to wait for an update from the game developers or your GPU manufacturer. As a quick fix, you can try putting a limit on the maximum FPS of this game.
For this, first you open the Nvidia Control Panel and navigate to 3D Settings > Manage Program Settings and select Monster Hunter Rise. Make sure you have set the FPS to at least 60 FPS if it was previously set to no limit. However, if the default was set to 60 FPS, lower it to 30 FPS for the GPU to do less processing work to run the game.
3. Run in High Performance Mode
This is the best solution yet available for Monster Hunter Rise's "renderdevicedx12.cpp Fatal D3D" error when running games in high performance mode on Windows. This time, we'll let the operating system manage the load and free up resources so that it can run the game effectively.
- Search for GPU settings in Windows 10
- In the list of available software, search for MonsterHunterRise.exe (YOUR_STEAM_PATH/steamapps/common/MonsterHunterRise)
- Next, add MonsterHunterRise.exe to the list
- Select it and then go to Settings
- Select “High performance”
- Close the GPU settings window and restart your PC
- Once rebooted, now run Monster Hunter Rise and play
