DX10 and DX9 both not working

SuperR · #1 05-02-2009, 08:34 PM

Specs:
Intel® Core 2 Quad Q8200
Vista 64 bit Home Premium
4GB DDR2 memory
Intel® 3100 integrated graphics

Installed fine, whenever I go to either of the game.exe's it just comes up with the error:
ERROR: could not initialise DirectX 9/10 renderer

I made sure direct x 10 was installed and updated, then updated the game to 1.1 but nothing happened. Still the same.

Anyone help?

Edit:Tried on a Windows Vista 32 bit machine, quad core. 4gb ram.

DX10 still did same thing, normal .exe loaded up then crashed straight away.

Obviously game doesn't work, waste of money and time. Will be taking it back to the shops, make a game that actually works next time. Also thanks for the floods of help to try and get this POS to work.

AWESOME STUFF MAANN

And how much RAM does your GRAPHIC card have?
Googling (which is what YOU should have done, not ME) for Intel® 3100 integrated graphics says "up to 256mb" (while the bare minimum for nvn is "256mb or more"). But make sure have 256mb and not 128mb (= have your computer WRITE it).
You probably have an issue like those guys. But tell me, why did you not find it, awesome man? Did you even look for it?
Oh and stupid thing, does you computer pass the dxdiag rendering tests?

PS: I you ever wondered why you have crappy performance in games, that's because your have an AWESOME GFX CARD MAANN (if you see "integrated" it sucks, period).

You video card is not suitable for Necrovision. Get discrete one, and you will be able to play the game.

Dear SuperR,

Better upgrade your PC. In NO way that *Integrated* graphics can run Necrovision.

Before buying and/or posting anything please check the game's official requirement. Necrovision is NOT a waste of money or time. Gamers need to be aware about the basic system requirements before playing and buying any PC title.
I'm not offending you. Your OTHER system specs seem to be OK. You need to upgrade your GPU. That's all.

And Please don't talk bad or use bad language about any title including Necrovision. IF you don't like any title, simply DON'T play it or buy it. Try the DEMO (If available) first before making any conclusions.

Cheers,
Daniel.

Hmmm... It might be a bit late but I found the exact cause of the problem:
-Necrovision requires Pixel shaders 3.0 (cf: game case+readme.txt)
-According to intel specs the GMA 3100 can only handle Shader model 2.0 (= Pixel shader 2.0 + Vertex shader 2.0)
