  • FFXIV can't detect directx!

    Has anybody else been getting an error saying that FFXIV could not detect a directx device? I've already tried reinstalling both directx and my video card drivers and still get the error.

    why in the hell do testers from this site keep asking here? and not in the beta forums?

    make sure your DX is fully updated, along with your video card driver, if it still does not work after that, report it as a bug in the hardware feedback forums, along with your hardware configuration.

      Kailea, there are people not in beta talking about it just to annoy you.

      You do realize this right.

        Really if people take time out of their day, just to try and anger me, then that's really sad.

        If people are doing it intentionally, then I guess I could take that as a form of harassment, and can appropriately report it? But again no point, because nothing would be done about it.

          Maybe people just like these forums better. :D

          It's not like he was leaking your precious info, he was just asking a technical question, no need to get angry just because someone mentioned FFXIV.

            You do realize that Feba was being sarcastic, right?

              This has nothing to do with leaking anything, or anything to do with the NDA, your comment on that is just a sad atempt at provoking me. Your missing the whole point, why ask a question about something, that no one could really help with.

              It would be like asking a Mac question in a Microsoft forum.....


              There are tons of threads about hardware problems, if the OP is really in beta, its not hard to go over to the forums and look for their problem, and even then, I answered the question as well in my post, so this threads existence is no longer needed.

                Can we get angry because they apparently can't read. This issue was even mentioned with the FFXIV benchmark.

                Oh and yes, it is stupid asking for help with a closed beta on a forum that has nothing to do with the closed beta. More so when said beta has it's own forums to connect you to other testers and likely a way to get in touch with SE about issues as well.
                I use a Mac because I'm just better than you are.

                  /shrugs. There are some pretty smart tech savvy people on this forum, I'd rather ask here than on a beta forum. Hell, you should have seen the Alpha forums for the past couple of WoW expansions. Friends and Family Alpha testing and people were STILL trolling each other.

                  Edit: And when it switched to closed Beta, it was comparable to the current WoW forums.

                      He probably asked here because the beta/alpha forums are loaded with a bunch of elitist pricks and trolls. Even I wouldn't ask a simple question there if my life depended on it.

                        there is a hardware section, and it is relatively troll free

                        I was amusing the comment made by Feba, I honestly don't think the OP is doing this to annoy me.

                          Yes I know there is and all the same jack offs that have access to the rest of the forums also have access to thar section so I wouldn't bother taking the chance. It doesn't take much to set them off.

                              Well... the beta forums are full of... you know... dicks... (not as bad as bluegartr though, not by a long shot).

                              Dude asked a question, if you want to answer him, that's nice but if not, I don't see why its necessary to moan about him asking that question.

                              Just click on the little x at the corner of your browser and get on with your life.
