If you can’t play Farming Simulator 17 due to black screen issues, try updating your graphics drivers.


Use the tool described above to download the latest graphics updates on your computer and check if the issue is solved.



3. Farming Simulator 17 Failed. No access to profile error


No access to profile


This error usually occurs when players try to activate the game. You can quickly fix it by installing the latest game update.



4. The camera always spins around


disconnect all gamepads


Some steering wheels have separated axis for the accelerator and the brake pedal.


For this reason, the camera often spins around hectically when you play with your steering wheel since Farming Simulator 17 only uses one axis for the pedals.


To prevent the camera from spinning around, combine the axis inside the steering wheel configuration.


If the camera spins around without user input, disconnect all gamepads and driving wheels from your computer, wait for a few seconds and then plug them back in.




5. Error: Could not init 3D System


Could not init 3D System


  1. Open Steam.

  2. Choose Library.

  3. Right-click on Farming Simulator 17 and open Properties.

  4. Choose the Local files tab.

  5. Click Verify integrity of game cache.

Download and install the OpenGL Extensions Viewer. Run it and check your OpenGL version on the first page.


If the value is smaller then 4.0, this means that your GPU doesn’t have Shader Model 3.0, the driver is too old or is not correctly installed.


In this case, uninstall all graphics drivers and try to reinstall the newest driver.
