Intel (R) Core (TM) i7-7700 CPU @3.60 GHz 3.6 GHz
RAM 16,0 GB
64-Bit x64 Prozessor
Windows 10 Home
NVidia Gforce GTX 1070
Since a few weeks my screen shows the blue circuit like in the attachment and often my screen bcame white. I reinstall FGU, but nothing happens. A little bit frustrated, bcause i prepare a campaign with Rolemaster Classic. Any suggestions? Need more informations? 4561145612

Make sure FG is using your graphics card - I don't see any GPU being used in your screenshot - so perhaps it's using your on board graphics instead of your nVidia card.

I'm not sure then. You aren't using anything like enough memory or video memory to be running out of it. I don't know the Rolemaster ruleset - it could be some issue with data there but I'm really not sure. If you can give the devs steps to recreate the issue and provide your zipped up log files and possible your campaign files that would probably help narrow things down a bit.

I use the RMC ruleset, that does not look like anything in the ruleset itself. Looks like it is going into Not Responding (keine rückmeldung) in Windows when this happens.
As Zacchaeus says, steps to reproduce would be good.
Maybe updating your video drivers could help.

Do you have the same theme loaded twice? That at least shows in the chat in your first screenshot. Additionally to the other suggested steps it might be worth a look into the windows event viewer. Some "not responding" errors get logged there.

This has nothing to do with your graphic-card, it is a CPU overload situation (hence no/little GPU load shown when the CPU doesn't deliver). FGU only uses a single core of your CPU and that one is maxed out. Because of that it does not report back to Windows in time, which is why at one point the whole application window whites out.

He posted what seems a valid response to the user far as I can tell and the snippet he showed in response from a moderator was a petty and vindictive moderator. Weis might be a bit blunt but you guys are moderators. LordEntral's response above is even less what I'd expect from a moderator.
/sigh

Event Viewer doesn't seem to indicate anything.
Have you checked wether you have two themes selected/loaded (because two show in chat)?
FGU is up to date i supoose (2021-02-04)?
Does the error happen on every image you create or just on that particular one (small, big, etc)?
Does the program instantly go to "Not Responding" when hanging? When loading or opening big things I sometimes got a waiting time of a few seconds, be sure to don't click anyhting on the mouse or keyboard if it is not showing "Not Responding" and give it a few seconds.
Best bet would be to list reproducable steps (as best as you can give) and upload a zipped campaign here (or Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.).

Rolemaster is a pretty "heavy" ruleset to run in my experience. It always seems to put the heaviest load on my system.

Problem solved
Could you tell us how, for people who will have the same issue in the future?
