Strider Crash at Launch Error

[There is no Spoon]

"D3D device could not be created, please make sure you have Direct X 11 capable hardware" i get this every time and its really annoying me. I can run Skyrim in Direct X 11 and many other games just fine. Why all of a sudden can this one not? Could really use help here

Same here this needs to be addressed now

I have the same problem, and so do dozens and dozens of people. I uninstalled the game until Capcom can be bothered to fix it. Tons of other people that can actually play the game have reported that it crashes constantly and that simple features such as screenshots cause crashes.

This is the last Capcom game I buy. I refuse to support a company that can't get it's ♥♥♥♥ together. Especially after how many times it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ it's customers over in the past.

somehow i thought crapcom got its ♥♥♥♥ together... my mistake. the game LOOKS awesome. and i dont know if consoles are having this problem. we better get a patch or so help me god....

[Apathy]

Consoles aren't having this problem. PC is the only release that's having any problems at all.

Skyrim was not built using DirectX11.
But on another note - what graphics card are you using? There are a lot of complaints on the forums about graphics / crashing that are related to graphic cards that basically ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ you into thinking they'll work with directx11 built applications.
But what the hell do I know, I don't even own the game.... yet? Or do I ... TO THE INFORMATORIUM!

I run Saints Row 4 on Direct X 11. My graphics card obviously supports it and dxconfig confirms this. I verified the cache, checked and I had DX 11 updated to current, rebooted steam, rebooted my pc, and disabled AV. None of this helped. So nice try. Some of us actually do know how to use a computer. Capcom or Double Helix or whoever you want to blame is the reason this ♥♥♥♥ doesn't work, not user incompetence.

Dear mr. 4tfsl,
what OS? What gfx card? Laptop? Desktop?
Some laptops have hybrid (crappier) cards that might supersede the beefy (working) graphics card due to power consumption when booting or who knows, I have a giganticly heavy Alienware laptop that likes to randomly turn off the 550m

Uh, sure. All I want to know is more details so I can possibly try to assist the next generation of PC gamers to understand the difference between a 64bit built DX11 game and you know, not.

I'm also having this problem.

Same prob here. This is absolutely a bad joke. Super SF4 Arcade Edition runs almost smoothly here, and Strider crashes?! What the heck, Capcom?!

To be fair SF4 was built and supports windows XP (32 bit windows) - Strider does not. 64bit operating systems, DirectX11 cards (not whatever dxdiag tells you). Is it pretty ridiculous? Sure but technology is migrating towards the trend of not supporting systems that are older.

And as for the game not launching - that's a conundrum. I'll have to wait until I get home to check my laptop, but i'm sure you ran some dx11 too :(

Wanted to start the game first time, and the error happened. My card supports dx11 (i'm sure 100%), and i have the latest drivers for it. So it must be another problem.

[Crimson Eagle]

I have the same issue, I'm beginning to regret putting my money in DH and Capcom's hands.

Laptop? Desktop? Graphics card? System OS? Not to be a ♥♥♥♥, but telling me you're 100% sure is like telling me I'll be ok if I lose my arm in an accident. Are you a doctor? I don't know! It's the internet!

[Corruption Exposed]

Yeah I'm getting the same issue.

Since the initial boot error I've run windows update, gotten the lastest gfx card drivers, made sure I have directx 11 installed, restarted PC, and tried setting different resolutions in launch options.

Guess we'll just have to wait for the devs to address this.
