Dx10 issue

Thanks for the replis people. This gives me some stuff to go on for now.


They believe that the DX10 engine failure is in effect because I am
missing graphics in DX10 that are present in the DX9 engine. Here is the
original inquiry.

I actually havent tried an uninstall / reinstall yet . Ill write back
after the reinstall and defrag and all that.

That's what they all say because they don't actually know what the problem
is. I'm surprised they didn't tell you to defrag your HDD to fix the
problem. Run chkdsk and look at the report it generates, it will tell you
if you had any corrupted files.

That's an easy fix. Just download DXwebsetup from Microsoft and run that
while connected to the internet.

I can assume from your description that you are reffering to Hellgate:London,
This is a known issue with Hellgate and not a Direct10 corruption issue, If
you are running an ATI card the drivers from 8.5 upwards appear to have
resolved this. If NVIDIA then again I suggest latest drivers. There is also
an issue when Anistropic filtering is turned on that corrupts the graphics on
this game. Many users have had the same issue. When i update my graphics
drivers this stopped happening for me
