started dx11 version ,looks  okay until I select an arena on enter crash to desk top. no error messages displayed

windows 10, note dx9 works okay, dx11 worked prior to version 20.

In another thread Skuzzy posted about this problem.    He suggested it could be an out of date video driver.  I updated mine having the same problem you did and that fixed the problem.

Was there any kind of update in the last hour or so?  Now, I am able to load DX11 beta with no problems.... 

I did change something just prior to getting it functioning.  Then, I changed it back and it still functions.   

Honestly, I tried multiple times prior to the change, and it always gave the same exception offset.  After the change, not a single incidence of crash at startup of arena. 

* Also, noticed the gamma slider does not work in DX11.

It would be nice if you described what you changed?

My new CPU/Motherboard arrived this morning. So hopefully I can test it with the DK2 tonight.

My ESXi server gets the new motherboard/CPU/RAM (I needed to bump it 32Gb, it's amazing how many boards only support 16Gb)
My gaming box gets the ESXi old mbd/cpu/ram
My oldest son gets my gaming boxes old mbd/cpu/ram
My middle son gets my oldest sons old pc/mbd/cpu/ram
My youngest son gets the middle sons old laptop

Gonna be a busy weekend...

Sounds like a family affair.

I changed the texture size in video setting screen.  It showed 2048, and I changed it to 512.  Worked immediately afterwards.  Then I stepped it back up to 2048, testing between and haven't had a crash upon startup on Arena since (edit:  now 4096 no problems).

I delayed describing the change, so as not to interfere with bug testing or to spread bad information.  I wasn't sure if it was coincidence or related to the change.

Started dx11 version ,looks  okay until I select an arena on enter crash to desk top. no error messages displayed, had to use Task Manager to get out.

Went into Beta 21 under C:\Hitech Creations and checked all files.

Only saw 3D3X9_43.dll listed for Dx9............no 3D3COMPILER_43.dll listed for Dx11.

Ran Updater Beta 20 to Beta 21 again.....updater ran w\o a hitch.

Checked Beta 21 under C:\Hitech Creations again and still no 3D3COMPILER_43.dll shows listed for Dx11, only 3D3X9_43.dll for Dx9.

Tried executing Beta 21 Dx11 version again and got the same error message "can't start program due to 3D3COMPILER_43.dll is missing from your computer".

For some reason that I can't find this file is not installing.

So I turned Kapersky A\V off then reran Updater Beta 20 to Beta 21 again....updater ran w\o a hitch.

Again checked Beta 21 under C:\Hitech Creations and still no 3D3COMPILER_43.dll shows listed for Dx11, only 3D3X9_43.dll shows listed for Dx9.

So it appears that my A\V software isn't the issue at this time.

Waiting on directions.

Update:

Went on MS site & downloaded the Directx June 2010 redistribution pack & ran it on my box to reinstall Dx11.

Beta 21 Dx11 version is now working.

Went up in Beta 21 Dx11 version & flew around in me ole Spitty...................

Showing a large improvement in Beta performance on my box w\ Dx11 version vs Dx9 version.

At same airfield sitting on runway using same settings.....Dx9 FPS @ 69, Dx11 FPS @ 80 (AMD FRTC set FR).

Dx11 version runs very sweet on my box......holds 80 FPS across the board so far, even on the deck.

Only item that I've found so far is the gamma setting seems to be locked at what looks like either .9 or 1.

Looking good!

Continue testing..............

i dont think its been posted yet, same error as past ... "file blahblah.dll not found try reinstall..."

edit: should we non-dll people do what Pudgie did?  is this problem on my end?

[Pudgie]

Here are a couple of snippets of my box performance when running Beta 21 Dx11 vs Beta 21 Dx9:






These were snipped after running Beta 21 in both versions using the exact same ingame settings in the same environment.

Looks like the Dx11 version is more resource efficient at this time..........a boon for users w\ older equipment if this holds.

Looking good fellas!

 

PS--Dx9 version is the top snippet, Dx11 version is the bottom snippet
