DirectX Function Error (Nvidia) - Are you actually serious EA? ( 28.03.17 - 21:34 CEST )

honestly at this point so many people have tried so many different things it might be worth just waiting until tomorrow to see if theres a day one driver update and or game update that has a fix.

I agree. Afraid the recent YouTube videos casting false hope with “all problems fixed if you do this” snake oil solutions aren’t helping anything either.

Thought I had avoided these errors, just played an hour of single player, then get the error message come up.
4570K
8GB RAM
GTX770
Windows 10, latest updates
373.06 Nvidia Drivers

I found the following to be my issue with this bug.

During gameplay, without using dx12, regardless of border or full screen, my gtx770 will get to 80-82 degrees celcius which will usually cause the error to appear. I found that by increasing the temp target in evga precision to a value of above 85 seems to prevent this issue. For further clarification i also allow over voltage.

having the same issue after trying most fixes.

etc… etc…

1 min into the gamer you gotta be kidding me FFS same .

Similar issue here. I’ve tried all the recommended, reverting nvidia drivers to 1 version older, repairing C++ redists, disabling Overlays etc. Nothing working. Goddamnit self! How many times have i told you to never buy games at release!? I’ll never learn. Seriously though, this is , i give up. Already ticketed GreenManGaming.com for a refund ,which by law in the EU they have to honor but they will probably go 'Not our fault! No refund! Wait till EA fixes their !"

Why is it so goddamn hard for EA/DICE to make a battlefield game release go smoothly from a technical standpoint? They had a working game in the beta why does it all of a sudden not work now? 1 step forward 2 steps back.

On the Nvidia forums its been all but confirmed we will get game ready drivers by the official release point later tonight. Hopefully this fixes the issues but who knows really.

tried to chat with EA, and they told me to update Visual C++ Redistributable and closed my ticket without confirming that it worked (which I doubt it will.) No matter that it was already installed and updated. thanks EA!

What graphics settings are you running at? I think this is happening if you try putting the graphics settings beyond what your gpu can handle.

No, just no…it’s a game/driver issue.

Ok, well don’t bother trying it then i don’t really care.

I’ll explain a bit more than he did lol. Even if your card can’t handle the settings you have it on it will just result in low FPS not the DirectX errors we have been receiving. From the posts I’ve seen it’s been happening with guys running low settings on high end cards as well

I might be completely wrong here, but i haven’t got anymore of those crashes after i went to Origin games—>Battlefield1—>installer—>vc and re-installed both the vc2012update3 and vc2013.

Played 3 hours straight without crashing, whereas before installing those files, i could only play 5-55 minutes…

Doesn’t work.

It just started happening to me tonight on my first game. I’ve been playing since Origin early access, no problems for hours on end, but tonight, first game, BAM! Error. Very irritating since this is the release version. I have a 780Ti, I7 4770, 16GB Dual channel ram.

i only got that error on dx 12 11 works fine

Calm your and wait for the omptimized drivers from Nvidia, latest drivers (373.06) isn’t optimized and causes only problems with BF1. New drivers should be released soon™.

you might be right. EA support has been total garbage, but I think it might not be a problem on the BF1 side.

Now EA wants me to contact them at 9am British Standard Time, which is 3am my time. This is fubar.

Nope, does nothing to fix this issue.
