unreal engine missing support for advanced rendering features

Anyone give a tip what is missing my system support DX12 but the engine said it not supported.

DXDIAG I already installed the latest version of Direct X Runtime which Unreal engine requirements.

“DirectX version” and “shader model” are different things.
Apparently your graphics card doesn’t support shader model 6.
What graphics card is it?

RTX 2070 Super

Oh just update the Window and is good to go.

can I get more details?

The latest Unreal Engine 5.1 need the latest or updated version of DX12 File from your windows, which is included from the latest version of w10 & w11 if your going to use the SM6 Rendering Features.

The reason why It not working for me because my old w10 didn’t have the latest DX12 File.

More Info here DX12

Hello, I have the same problem as you, but I did not solve successfully, I am windows 11 system, 13700K, no discrete graphics card

You need discrete graphics card to run it on DX12. Since Integrated Display is not supported by DX12

Hello there,

I am facing the same issue and I don’t quite understand your solution. Update the Window?

Could you please elaborate a little?

Thanks!

He meant he updated “Windows” as the operating system I guess.

Hi! I have the same problem about this topic “Missing support for advanced rendering features”.
I have just updated windows and the driver for NVIDIA quadro k2200. But it doesn’t work.
I also have this message of problem when I add a light in my project. Probably is related to the same problem:
“Runtime does not support whole scene point light shadow (Missing Vertexshader Layer support)”

Anyone can help me?

These my specification:
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2640 v3 @ 2.60GHz 2.60 GHz
32,0 GB RAM
Windows 10 Pro 64bit (10.0, build 19045)
22H2
DirectX 12

The Quadro K2200 was a professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on July 22nd, 2014

It does not support the DX12 shader model 6, and never will. Time to upgrade!

Hello i have latest windows update
Version 20H2
Installed yesterday

Specs are rtx 2070 super
ryzen 7 2700
32 GB of ram

And still have that error while starting project. Any solutions?

I get this lovely error when trying to open up archived UE projects, “archived” in quotes because these are projects just from a few months ago in 5.2. Project runs extremely laggy too once compiled, just nonsense.

I have same problem BUT sm 6 is actually supported in my system?

Why it dont work?

You have an Intel Iris Xe graphics card, which doesn’t have all the necessary features.
“Shader Model 6” is a wide sprawling jungle of variants and options, not as simple as the shader models used to be, unfortunately.
You’ll need to use another renderer, or add a dedicated graphics card with the appropriate support.

Thanks, i didnt know that.

Also, in directx 12 rhi, distance fields not working but when i change it to vulkan everything works totally fine but fps is very very lower than usual (thats make impossible to work with my laptop)

Is that related to SM6 thing?

Also please optimise vulkan rhi, in almost everywhere vulkan increases fps, but just in unreal engine 5 it reduces dramaticly. (I do some research and everyone experienced lower fps in vulkan in ue5)

hi dear i got the same problem but i cant solve it bcz i am not update my laptop is their any other way to solve it for rendering advance frame.thanks a millions.
