semlemsushi Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Not sure how this originated, but when I try to run a clean client with server on, this is what pops up when it says "Initializing DirectX". I have also tried with server off, same error. How do I fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justn Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 ~~Your picture is not working.~~. ~~Also are you running it through VB? That way you can show us what line its highlighting? =p~~Edit: This was taken from the first question in the FAQ!! =)> Q: I receive [insert runtime/automation error here] when I try and run the engine.> A: If it mentions a .dll or a .ocx file or anything about 'ActiveX' then you've installed the library files wrong. If mentions an automation error then you either have dodgy drivers or, if you get it running the client, your might not have a working sound card at all. If it mentions a file path then you haven't extracted Origins properly. In both cases you need to go read the installation instructions on the download page. If it's an actual RTE in the source code then go post a question thread and take a screenshot of the error and post the line it errors on. That's the line which is highlighted yellow.

Justn Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Sometimes after I play a different game for awhile or if my computer hasn't been restarted in months I will get that error randomly too.. All I do is restart my computer and the error goes away =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semlemsushi Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Yeah, I guess it detected I didn't have a properly operating sound card since there was no device for the output so it messed up :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
