Cities Skylines 1 game crashing during load

[CsCline]

Hello, my game has been crashing upon hitting the in-game section of the load. I have tried fresh install of the game and checked all my mods, after which it worked fine once then started crashing again, I have checked the PC requirements which I meet, I normally run 12-13k assets and mods on high graphics settings with no jitter or lag. I have included my logs below but I'm not sure what it all means, thank you for any thoughts on this matter

The error log shows you are using 93% of your available memory (you're out of memory). Maybe try setting up the window's pagefile for more memory.

Here's a Steam guide on setting up Window's pagefile for more memory.

Steam Community :: Guide :: Page file - Setup, Explanation, and Guide V2.2

Hello folks, This is a guide on how to setup a page file on Windows, MacOS and Linux. What is a page file? A page file/swap file is used by the Operation System (OS} to keep your main RAM f

Actually the paging file is already enormous, over 100gb :

93% memory in use.
16187 MB physical memory [1016 MB free].
110892 MB paging file [41884 MB free].

AND more than half full, despite that! You must be running a bunch of stuff that Windows can't page out. Try unloading every other app you can before starting the game.

Also your video system is only an integrated Intel one which is unsupported hardware for this game. We can try this: In your Steam Library right-click on this game and choose Properties. In the Launch Options line, paste this in there:
-force-d3d9

Thanks! I didn't realize that I have to clean up the page file, you're right I have it set to 110gb page, mostly because I had a great number of assets, maps and mods. The game this log came from was 11k assets, running high detail, city with 1.5 million cims. I pulled out a lot of assets with high triangle count, set the detail down a notch and cleaned out a disrespecting amount in paging, working like a charm holding 30fps.the Intel UHD graphics my friend has the game convinced its compatible, don't ask me how I haven't got a clue. Runs on high detail with no lag

The purpose of expanding the page file is to allow Windows to swap other stuff out, not game data! It must be in memory. To hold more of that you need more physical memory.
