Directx can't be loaded
« on: December 17, 2009, 09:31:46 PM »
Hi

Since I'm with win 7 32 bits, SC4TF doesn't work anymore.

I have DirectX 11, so I don't know why it doesn't work, I have directx!

Can anybody help me?

Thanks!

Did you follow the instructions that come with SC4TF in the "dependencies and requirements"? It sounds like you did not.

SC4TF is requiring DX9.0c, so even if you have DX11, I don't know if DX9.0c come s with win7

If it follows how Vista shipped, then you'll need to install DX9.0c

I wonder, because I have Win 7 32-bit too, will it overwrite or knock out my DX11 when I install the DX9? Or can the two coexist. And right now, TF won't load, so I'm DL'ing DX9.

Yes DX11 and DX9 will coexist

If you already has DX11, as Win7x86, when you tried to install DX9, said that you have a newer version, and won't install, correct me if I'm wrong.

I don't have a win7 install, but I have Vista, which didn't ship with DX9 but with DX10, and you can install DX9 on Vista, I don't see why you won't be able to install it on win7

DX9 and DX11 are two different pieces of software, not like a drivers revisions

I have Win7 RC 64 bit, and was able to install DirectX 9.0c without any problems. You might have to download the standalone version, not the web installer that is just a few kilobytes in size, though.
