"DirectX 12 is not supported on your system. Try running without the -dx12 or -d3d12 command line argument."
Is there a way I can resolve this, or do I just need to use a different PC? I have intel iris xe graphics

yes every thing is up to date
Actually, I have some guesses... But they are only about my friend and other weak graphics cards. There is a game called "Abiotic Factors" Where RTX rays are used, and therefore, at the beginning of the launch of the game in EA, many who did not have a video card that supported them, the game simply did not work with a similar error... At the same time, the game was suitable for weak PCs according to system requirements



And my foreign language skills are not great, but they're good enough for me to understand how bad ordinary translators' translations are... That's why I try to use different GPTs and neural networks, but they don't always work well... So it's not very convenient for me to communicate.
But still, with regard to the problem, I think the best option would be to just wait for the release. I think they will fix the problems.

I didn't understand what you did a little bit. Can you describe it in more detail? My friend has an Nvidia graphics card

AMD has a habit of dropping support on 'old' GPU or just not giving them features they can physically support, so savvy users will make their own modified versions of the drivers or VBIOS that allow the unsupported GPUs to make use of 'unofficial' features.

nVidia isn't as scummy and will update their cards every time a game dev sneezes in a way that sounds vaguely like "new feature" so you don't have to worry if you're not on AMD GPUs.

yes, fundamentaly diffrent things but if your change had somethijg to to with directx for example forcing it into directx11 then this might be a clue, if you know waht im trying to say. i just take any hints i can at this point since i have 1 day to figure out how to make the game run.

I had the same issue where I had Windows 10 upgraded to the max but then I switch to Windows 11 with the same hardware and had no problems after with he D12 issue. Hope it helps to you too.
Realsha89 Jun 30, 2024 @ 7:18pm

i just did that just installed it. still get the msg.

Also a 4090, but using the superior windows 10, no error messages thankfully. Must be a OS issue.

have same problem too,played in the first beta and can launch+play but now says directx12 issue thing,why did they change it only allow to run at 12?
Realsha89 Jun 30, 2024 @ 7:47pm
