Red Dead Redemption 2 Message Board  

For people crashing using the launcher, try this. Taken from the R* site.

Run RDR2.exe as an administrator

Open the Rockstar Games Launcher
Select Settings
Select Red Dead Redemption 2 under My installed games
Select Open under View Installation Folder
Right-Click on RDR2
Select Properties
Under the Compatibility Tab
Select Run this Program as an Administrator and Disable Full Screen Optimization
Click OK
Return to the Games Menu in the Rockstar Games Launcher
Launch the game


You also gotta run the launcher as admin before hand. Switching the game to Windowed Full-screen eliminates a lot of lag.

Game runs amazing on my GTX 1080ti, only lag really when making sharp turns. (Not sure why, seems like a stutter) -- Nvidia doesn't seem to have the optimazation options as of yet but think they are waiting for the game to settle on it's patches.

Looking forward to seeing the trainer, Thanks CH Team
