NFS DELUX EDITION - NOT WORKING WITH DIRECT 12

Hi Community,

so i just spent $100.00 on this game only to find out it wont work with directx 12.

im runnin a GTX 1070 8GB GPU and cant downgrade to DX11

Is there any way i can have this game working on my PC?

Please let me know anything at all.

  • Last I checked, the game is dx11. Your gtx1070 is still very, VERY well capable of playing DirectX9+ games. Only with your Pascal based gpu, the game would play smooth. Probably even at 4k.

    Here is a pic of the error and a pic of dxdiag.

  • Try going to Microsoft's online download site and try finding "dxwebsetup". Unlike other executables, this one scans your hardware and only downloads and intall's the correct API's specific to your pc. Also try looking for the most recent "Visual C Redistributable". Be sure to download and install both the x86 and x64 version as some games/app's use both. As for the whole dx12 thing. Your card supports dx12 natively, and it's backwards compatible. When you install the dxDrivers, it includes 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, and 7. Just in case you run older games. Just in case too, and I know you might hear this a lot so I'm sorry. But make sure your graphics driver is up to date. Me personally, I go to Nvidia.com and download the driver manually (older ones too in case there's issues). Do a clean uninstall of the old drivers and use a DriverClean to clean any left overs. Then do a clean install of the new driver followed by a restart (even if it does require a restart). Hopefully this helps you.. Hit me up if anything..

  • Oops, forgot to mention. Make sure the drivers you download are "WHQL" drivers, don't use beta's..

    Thanks for posting @juan_darksamurai

    I just want to add that when you are installing nvidia drivers choosing advanced/custom install and then clean install will remove the need to use any additional software to get rid of previous driver components.
