Failed to initialize graphics error

[floatingdiner]

What is the issue you’re having?

RedM ran after installing, but the cursor disappeared when trying to join a potential server discord, so I closed the app and tried to reopen it. Every time I get this error message.

What have you tried already to fix the issue?

Change graphics from Vulkan to DirectX12 in RDO
Change app graphics driver preference to high performance in system graphics settings and NVIDIA control panel
Restart device
