Re: Bypassing Driver requirement for launch

Thanks for your response, I found proper help somewhere else tho, was able to bypass the requirement but could only run about 10fps on lowest settings so I guess I have to upgrade my 6 year old card to be able to play this at launch.

Thanks for the answer tho.

    And if anyone has the same problem I simply changed a value in regedit to fake having a higher driver version - It's only used for checking which version you have, doesn't influence the performance in any way. 

    For my ATI card it was under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class and then I searched for Catalyst_Version and changed the value from 13.9 to 15.7 and then it ran the game. That should be enough info for someone to google a solution for their own card.

    Bypassing the driver requirement for Lenovo Y50-70's will become an interesting topic since Star Wars Battlefront now requires GTX860m users to be using 1 or the 3 most recent driver updates from Nvidia that basically cause systems to hard lock whenever a game is played.
