Grimrock

Hi again! I´ve run DXDIAG a couple of times, and it says that everything is ok. But, there could very well be problems anyway I guess, so I put the full info on pastebin. http://pastebin.com/LStnTN94 (32-bit) and http://pastebin.com/D0SwDvAp (64-bit) I´m thinking that perhaps I somehow have a faulty...

Hi! Well, I´ve tried changing the displayMode from 1 to 2 and to 3, but that gives me a "D3DError - D3DXXompileShader failed: ERROR_BAD_EXE_FORMAT". DisplayMode 1 gives the original error: "D3DError - CreateDevice failed: D3DERR_DEVICELOST" My native (and recommended) resolution ...

Reinstallation did not help either.

Thank you for taking your time with this Doc! Ok, I changed "textureResolution" to "3", but sadly still same error (D3DError - CreateDevice failed: D3DERR_DEVICELOST). If I also change "displayMode" to 2 or 3 I get the other error message (D3DError - D3DXXompileShader f...

Sure, it looks like this: -- options resolution = "1920 x 1080" displayMode = 1 verticalSync = 2 renderingQuality = 2 textureResolution = nil textureFilter = 3 shadowQuality = 3 ssaoQuality = 3 fogParticles = true muteMusic = false muteSounds = false musicVolume = 0.8 soundVolume = 0.8 arr...

So, I downloaded and used DDU, then installed latest drivers (344,48, which was released recently).
Still the same error.
Every other game I have tried on Steam works, but not LoG, so I think I´m giving up on this game now.
Maybe I can try it in a year or so when I get a new computer.

I´m not sure of anything! But I´ve installed the latest available (stable) drivers for my card according to the Nvidia site.
I don´t know about clean though, so I´ll definitely try your unintalling program when I get home again.
(I´m actually off to Finland now).
Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for more tips! Ok, a saw the last post first, so i ran vcredist_x86.exe, restarted the computer, but sadly still same error. Then I checked the config file, and displayMode was actually already set to 1. I changed it to 2, as I saw in an old thread regarding LoG1 where someone had the same er...

So, I reinstalled/updated Direct X 11 , and also the June 2010 version of DirectX 9 (which seems to be the same that is included with the game), but still no luck.
Also ran every Windows update available.

Any other tips? Any particular dll that can cause this problem?

No, that´s not silly, but yes, I restarted the computer after reinstalling the latest drivers and the other stuff. I did however notice that I no longer can start Legend of Grimrock 1 either (same error message) , which used to work perfectly fine. Most of my other Steam games seem to work though. I...
