Any fix for Dx12 yet?

[Electric Star]

Picked this up free on epic, but i cant even launch the game because of the no D3d12 issue. i've tried looking online, but making a shortcut and adding the -sharedvram doesnt seem to fix it for me.

im wondering if anyone has any solution to this or the reason it doesnt work for me, or if i just need to uninstall it and leave it in the dust.

and im not going to upgrade my pc just to run one game i got for free, and shouldnt have to for a list price of 60$.

im not complaining that i spent my money on something that i didnt look into, it was just free so easy nab, but still. i would think that i should at least open the main menu, and i've never had the issue before.

got the same issue. my PC is due for an upgrade but i am running DirectX 12.0, same as system specs.

if a game requires DX12 and your gpu doesnt supports said DX12 should it not start at all and that counts for ALL games. you saying that other games which requiring DX12 started for you is in my opinion simply a lie.

you can have DX12 installed but, that doesnt means that your gpu supports it.
long ago (about 6 years ago before i finally got a new PC) had i a nvidia 210 GT which was backthen when it got released an awesome gpu and was capable of playing games where friends said to me "how is your gpu doing this" but said gpu only supported Direct X up to 10.1 and well, when games started to swap to DX 11 was it time to get something new ... however, the DX driver info said i had DX 11.2 installed. so again, just because your driver info says so, does not mean your gpu supports it.

oh yea and edit, you should update your DX
DX 12 is at the moment at 12.2.1
thats what my gpu says =P

i was mostly looking for a workaround, my pc isnt the best. but while I didnt state that i could play other Dx12 games without issues, merely that i hadnt seen this before, looking through my library i have found a couple games such as CenturyAoA and starship troopers that do require 12, and i can play them. DxDiag tells me that im on DirectX12 as well. im thinking its an issue with epic games or something similar, im not sure
