Re: DirectX Error

 

The Directx Error “CreatePixelShader” has been investigated; however this error is not caused by the game.

In order to assist players who are experiencing this issue; we have brought together some workarounds and troubleshooting steps.

Make sure Windows and all the drivers are up-to-date.

Updating graphics driver

Reinstalling DirectX

If you have not tried yet please reinstall DirectX from the application available in the Game Folder.

By default the folder is located here:

  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need for Speed(TM) Rivals\__Installer\directx\redist

Once you have opened the redist folder, sort the list by type so you can easily find DXSETUP.

This is an application - Double-click in order to reinstall DirectX and restart the computer.

 

Different error message

Some players are experiencing a different DirectX error, such as:

  • DIG_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED or
  • DIG_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG

If so, we recommend the following troubleshooting steps available in this message.

Please note: This method only works for the people who are having another graphic card installed in the computer.

Hi Bros, I hope this would solve the problem for people who are having secondary graphic card installed such as Nvidia, AMD, ATI etc.

Go to the My computer -> properties

                  Properties    -> Device Manager

In Device Manager, go to Display adapters, in that right click Intel(R)  HD graphics 3000 and then click disable and now run the NFS rivals and make sure that the another graphic card is enabled.

Please note : This method only works for the people who are having another graphic card installed in the computer.

 

This solved for me and NFS Rivals runs perfectly.I hope this solves for U people too.

    Iv`e finished Crysis 3 withouot any problems. Not single crash or instability. There`s must be something wrong with Frosbite 3 engine. All other game working without any problems only Nfs Rivals crashing with error GetDeviceReasonRemoved DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG. The game crashing after 15 or 30 minutues, random not only when racing also in menu. Maybe memory leaking or confilct with hardware, the game engine is buggy. Downclocking graphic card doesn`t help. My config.

    Gigabyte B75m-d2v

    Intel i5 3350p

    Ram Corsair 8 GB dual channel 1333

    Power supply Chieftec 500 watt

    How to install the latest version of DirectX


    It is a problem with the game. None of the solutions you provided work. There are links to youtube videos where one can download the fixed .exe file and then run the game. EA is simply not releasing an update which support older graphic cards. You and ATI/Nvidia wants us to spend our money to buy new graphic cards and this is one of your tricks.

    Update for Battlefield 4 fixed the same issue. Don't try to fool us

    i have big graphic-bugs (like red points over the screen, black objects and other suddenly appearing stuff) with the game and after some minutes of playing it allways crashes.  there is no dirextx in my C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need for Speed(TM) Rivals\__Installer\directx\redist    (where i installed it). Is it possible that nfsr dont accept my directx ? or what could be the prob, cause even my 5 years older pc dont have bugs/crashes with the game (but is too bad to run in without lag)
