FAF on a laptop - Unable to create Direct3D
-
Hi guys,
I am currently trying to run FAF on an Acer Asprire 3, fresh laptop, with i3-1215U (2.5GHz), 16GB RAM, and nVidia MX550, Windows 10 x64, a pretty good setup for FAF, the CPU score I get is 135.
However, I am unable to run it on the MX550, the game doesn't start, says "Unable to create Direct3D", and gives this log:info: Client version: 2024.8.0 info: Game version: 3812 info: Game type: faf

If I force the computer to use the intergrated intel GPU - the game works, but after 30 mins it becomes barely playable on a 6v6 map.
I read a lot about this problem, here and in the internet, so here is what I've done:
- used 3 different versions of MX550 drivers - from the oldest I could find to the newest
- updated the DirectX several times
- updated all VC packages
In the end I managed to run the Steam executable under WIndows 7 compatibility mode with the MX550 gpu, but cannot manage to run the ForgedAlliance.exe under compatibility.
I also played a lot with resolution modes through game.prefs file, nothing helped. Windowed mode doesn't help too.
Any ideas where to poke more? Or is it some kind of driver/hardware issue that prevents us enjoying our ol' game?

Lmao I fixed it.
I tried to automatically install the driver number 511.23, oldest driver for MX550 I could find, this is the 4th version, but it wouldn't let me, the nVidia installer said 'no compatible products/OS were found'
But when I tried to manually update the driver via Device Manager, it allowed me with the warning 'windows cannot automatically verify the driver', but it did let me manually choose the MX550 and it eventually let me play.EDIT: After a restart it doesn't work. I am going fucking crazy

Does disabling the internal graphic card via Device Manager fix the issue?
-
@magge just tried that, the game runs, but the FPS is horrendous, much worse than on the integrated intel video? WTF?
-
Try this:
- Use DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller ) to uninstall the MX550 driver and to disable automatic windows driver update
- Install the GPU driver from the support site (Acer) for your specific laptop model, not from NVidia!

@katharsas unfortunately this didn't help...

Weird. Do other DirectX 9 Games work without a problem?
Other than reinstalling or resetting you operating system, which would very likely fix the issue:You can try to run Supcom with dgVoodoo2. dgVoodoo is a compatibility layer for Directx9 games. It essentially turns Supcom into a DirectX11/12 game. I have never used it but it is a well respected piece of software online and if your error is Dx9-specific, that should fix it (if dgVoodoo happens to work with Supcom).

@katharsas man, you are the MVP!
So FAF runs smooth as butter, now the laptop gets pretty damn hot lmao, it's not for gaming definitely... gonna test it for stability
It also turns out the replays are driven from a separate .exe file so I had to copy the dll's there too. -
Glad it worked : )
You might want to get some tools to monitor your CPU and GPU temperatur and make sure neither goes over like 87 while gaming.
