Hi, I've heard it might Run on some, and on some not. Laptop is just not supported. OBD is just a small team, extremly busy with developing the game further and to give support to PC Users. Even AMD is not officially supported, but there is a small group using WOFF and AMD.
Sorry.

Hi Greg,
The game certainly does work on laptops, I have one myself and WOFF PE works perfectly well. The only thing I have to do is rename the original splash intro so it doesn't try to play. That's something to do with WMP and Windows 10.
It would depend on your specs, graphics card etc. What OBD say is that they can't guarantee it'll work on all laptops, so they're limited in the support they can give if that's the case.
I'm sure Pol will set this straight if I'm misquoting at all.
But as long as your specs are good enough, it 'should' work on a laptop.
Cheers
Albert

One problem I occasionally ran in to when I was using my laptop for gaming was that some games would not by default use the Nvidia hardware and instead use the Intel HD video which caused problems. Just make sure that isn't happening.

Hi Greg,
What is your definition of "decent" ? What are the specifications?
When I started playing WOFF years ago I was doing it on a Laptop with an Integrated Nvidia GTX680M and a Intel I7-3630QM @2.4Ghz. w/SSD drive. IIRC as Chucky said I had to set the Nvidia as the default GPU in Bios.
Regards,

BTW BH&H II - that also has extra help for laptops such as auto-disabling splash etc.
Ahh, I wondered why the Splash file was called 'Splash2' already. Nice touch Pol
