The game needs around 4 GB of free RAM to run smoothly, or more than that if you use integrated graphics (because it uses system memory as GPU memory). You can try to free up memory by closing all other applications, setting the in-game viewing distance lower, setting the music volume to 0 and set RAM optimization to "aggressive" in the game's graphics settings. If your computer does not have 4 GB of free RAM, you can perhaps still play on minimum settings, for example a view distance of 96 or less. | The game needs around 4 GB of free RAM to run smoothly, or more than that if you use integrated graphics (because it uses system memory as GPU memory).

A graphics card can also run out of memory, causing the game to crash. Possible causes include: other active games or processes on your computer which also use graphics card resources (including some webpages or video players); two copies of Vintage Story running at the same time; a previous hard crash of any game or application such that graphics resources were not properly freed (try re-starting your system!); ultra-high view distances; fancy shader mods. If it happens repeatedly without any of these causes and even after re-starting your system, then try reducing graphics settings in Vintage Story: you can access the settings from the Main Menu before starting the game. | A graphics card can also run out of memory, causing the game to crash.
