King's Bounty DirectX error

Post by SpaceBooger »

Did anyone else get Kings Bounty from Steam last week?

I did.

I installed the first game and keep getting some "/bmrender/rmode.cpp" direct x error. Everything is updated and I have a good win 7 x64 gaming rig (can play SF4 with everything cranked up) but I cant play this game for more a couple minutes before crashing.

Google wasn't much help, so how bout you guys any ideas?

I downloaded it as well but it's working fine for me. It did have to update my DirectX, but I haven't had any problems. Hopefully you can get it working!

Did you manually update it or was it the update that happened during installation?

Thats not what I was hoping for... Steam also updated my DirectX and I still have the problem.

Yeah, I did all of that (except for the copying of my directX files to my Kings Bounty folder and rolling back my drivers - I refuse to roll them back since they will mess with my other games) and searched google before posting here... so yeah Google fail thus far.
