Unable to start Supcom / FAF on Lenovo Legion Go
-
Hi Guys,
I am trying to start Supcom (Steam Version) / FAF on the Lenovo Legion Go, currently to no avail. I get the error "Unable to create Direct 3D. Please ensure the system has current video drivers". However, the current video drivers are installed.
I already searched various forums for potential solutions, but none worked.
So far, I tried the following:
- Fiddling with screen rotation (both fixing it and unfix it). This seemed the most promising approach to me as the Lenovo Legion Go is a tablet, but it did not work. See also here
- Changing Resolution to more common resolutions than 2560x1440p
- Making sure the tablet monitor is selected as primary monitor (there is only one)
- Installing DirectX 9 from the Supcom Folder in Steamapps
- Fiddling with compatibility mode
- Changing Steam Game Properties
- Changing the Game.prefs according to this suggestion. This last approach actually is the most advanced as I am able to forward to the FAF game setup screen and setup a custom game. However, I am unable to proceeed to the actual game from there as the windowed game only shows a black screen (although I can hear the ACU spawning and see the menu asking me if I am sure to quit upon closing the window; yet in the next run the Game.prefs is completely overwritten and therefore I receive the original error message, unless I alter the Game.prefs prior to every next start).
What can I do to get Supcom / FAF running on the Lenovo Legion Go, ideally without having to change the Game.prefs prior to every run?

The one piece of advice I can give you is to try to mark game.prefs as read-only; that might prevent the game from editing the file.
Hopefully, there will be someone who can help you more!
