Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

ACDC-Direct3d/DirectX Error
|
The game encountered a fatal DirectX issue while attempting to start. Try a different screen resolution or bit depth. If that doesn't work, try new video drivers.
and
Could not initialize Direct3D. Please ensure that DirectX 9.0 or higher is installed.
Only get these pops when I close out a client (sometimes even if it's just one client while ACDC is running) and Decal is never running at all.
Hopefully Drakier can answer this one. It's not that big of a deal, but it does suck when you're trying to get NorthWatch keys on 2 or 3 clients and when you go to switch characters, it crashes, and then you miss the NPC.

you didn't post an export so no one has a clue if you have the REQUIRED .net framework 1.1 installed.

did you follow all the guidance on installing decal/plugins on vista/win7 OSs? IE, don't install to c:\program files\ folder where there is write premission problems and one must ensure that each time launched it's launched as administrator?
ac-dc at start up opens edits and writes back the launcher.in file so it starts up acdclauncher.exe. and when closed it then edits the file back to aclauncer.exe that way if if ac-dc is improperly de-installed (in the past) folks don't have trying to launch ac while it's looking for a laucher.exe file tht was deleted.

when I couldn't get ACDC to even work before, I uninstalled EVERYTHING and created a new games folder in just my C:\ drive. I installed everything individually to that and finally got ACDC to work. So yes, everything is in a separate folder from the default.

quick question, do you have direct 9x or the 10/11x installed.
not everything in 10/11x is backward comptable so runing older stuff (decal, ac) can cause issues. thus some folks have cleared up issues on the newer hardware/OSs by installing the direct 9x file from the decal site.

well according to the export, it looks like 9, but my drivers have 11 i'm fairly certain.

Try disabling the virindi view service and see if that helps any. I really don't think it will help but its something you can try.

Don't think so. I mean, he said that it happened when Decal was not running. If Decal is not running, VVS can't be the problem

you may want to check this thread http://vnboards.ign.com/ac_utilities/b5432/113031404/p1/?1
what folks in the past have noted is that OLDER programs like decal DON"T fully work with DX10/11 and really needs 9. above provides a link to dl 9x so decal can use that while your newer stuff uses 10/11

Use Yaroz's links .. http://vnboards.ign.com/ac_utilities/b5432/113031404/p1/?1 (same as above)
The link for reinstalling the DirectX9 is http://bit.ly/9agfV6
( http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=0cef8180-e94a-4f56-b157-5ab8109cb4f5 )
Pay no attention to the DirectX10 and/or 11 that may be already installed in your machine.
I have installed DiretX9 over top of (after) my Decal installation (all OSs.. W2k, XP, Vista, and Win7).

Pay no attention to the DirectX10 and/or 11 that may be already installed in your machine.
I have installed DiretX9 over top of (after) my Decal installation (all OSs.. W2k, XP, Vista, and Win7).
yeah I downloaded that, but the redistributeable comes with a ton of versions. I'm not sure if I installed it correctly. Is there a way to check?

Last time I ran this installation (in the past hour), it had only one version in it.
Quick review of runnning this installation ..
(1) When you run the "directx_feb2010_redist.exe", the window that opens is a zip extraction (after the first window with accepting the license agreement). This extraction will deploy all the installation files needed for installing DirectX. (Looking at the names of the files would give you the feeling of "ton of versions".) The default folder location for the extraction is buried in the TEMP folder. You can extract the files to ANY folder you wish .. it does not need to be in the TEMP folder. Extract the files to a place where it is easy for you to find.
(2) Go to that folder in Windows Explorer and run the "DXSETUP.exe". (Microsoft could had done this in a easier way!) Accept all the default answers.
(3) Restart the computer. The installation does not come out and say "restart", but, in example, Windows 7 will indicate there is a update to run ..
(4) To validate it, select the Start Menu, Run, and enter the command "dxdiag". Give it a minute to look over your computer (bar in the lower left corner). Then select the "Next Page" or click on the "Display" tab at the top. Verify that your "Direct3D Acceleration" is Enabled under the "DirectX Features". If not, see the notes below that.

! ! ! I M P O R T A N T ! ! !
TheNemesisII, PLEASE READ .. UPDATE ..
Today, I had the VERY SAME thing you had.  Same error message and all.
I have a small netbook laptop that I play AC on once in a while. I use the netbook more for other things, but, AC is loaded on it. To my surprise today, I found myself staring at the same error message. First thing was to follow my own advise from our previous post above .. with no success. I even was check firewall and whatever to be sure that the error was not the result of something else triggering it. History wise, AC has worked on this netbook with no problems (and no changes) for the past 18 months.
I finally reread that error message again ... "Try a different screen resolution .." 
SO! .. I checked my UserPreferences.ini file. Sure enough, it had the "Resolution=1024x768" and FullScreen=True. My netbook display ONLY HAS 1024x600!!! I manually edited the UserPreferences.ini file to read Resolution=1024x600. As a safety, I changed the FullScreen=False (which I reset back in-game). Everything went back to normal and the game started with no errors!
Bottom line. DirectX does not allow AC to request a screen resolution larger then the physical screen.
Check this out and let us know.

So I tried to Replicate this issue and succeeded by installing Asheron's Call on a netbook.

Same thing, I changed the screen Resolution and set it to False for Full screen and it worked fine.
Just thought I would share my findings.

yep, this is when it happens to me. I'll be alt-tabbed on one client, tryin to powerlevel or something, and I'll get logged and that error pops up. Happens probably %95 of the time.
