So, I downloaded the Double Deluxe Sims 2 game and have followed all the instructions to a tee. Now, when I try to play the game I get an error that says, "Failed to enumerate and DirectX 9 compatibl...
@Ra1nbowBlendI recommend editing your message to remove references to that website in your post and the title because it shouldn't be talked about here.
As for your DirectX 9 error, let me know if you have used Graphics Rules Maker. If yes, then which settings did you apply. Also let me know if you have tried running the game in windowed mode.
Hi, thank you for the recommendation, I edited my original post. To answer your other statement, I have used Graphic Rules Maker and have had the same pop-up as before. I used the auto-detect option which disabled texture memory estimate adjustment as well as enabled driver's memory manager. Also, I can't figure out how to run the game in windowed mode. Thank you for the response.
@Ra1nbowBlend To run the game in Windowed mode, right-click on your Sims 2 shortcut on your desktop, and go to Properties. At the end of the Target line, add one space and then -w so in the end it looks like "...exe" -w
Save those changes and try to run the game again.
Unfortunately, no luck with that either, still got the same pop-up message.
@Ra1nbowBlend Please attach your dxdiag: https://help.ea.com/en/help/pc/how-to-gather-dxdiag-information/
Also, send your Sims 2 config log; it should be a file named similar to [DESKTOP NAME]-config-log.txt located in Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Logs\.
