HRESULT:[0X887A0022], Module: [sharpDX.DXGI], ApiCode:
[DXGI_ERROR_NOT_CURRENTLY_AVAILABLE/NotCurrentlyAvailable],
Message:A resource is not available at the time of the call, but may become available later.

Do you have DirectX installed? It looks like your graphics card either doesn't support DirectX or you don't have it installed.

It wasn't DirectX but I needed to get a different driver for my video card.  Once I started digging into the directx possibility it showed me my driver issue.  Thank you!

If the issue is repeatable, contact the TI staff at ppmforums.com/index.php?f=466.


The issue is very repeatable, as it happens every time I launch it. I tried running as administrator, I checked to make sure the .zip checksum is the same, I have the XNA 4.0 framework installed, the Microsoft .NET framework installed; everything seems like it should work properly. Only thing to note is that I am running this on a virtual machine off a MacBook Air because it's the only computer I have. The VM has 2.5 gb of allocated memory; I'm not sure if this contributes to it.

EDIT: I fixed the problems, I had to install extra helpers to enable Direct3D and I had to switch the compatibility to TS-DDRAW before it worked. Works (mostly) now Smile

It's most likely a graphics driver issue. You can give a try to an alternative client version though:

1) Install DTA by downloading and unzipping this ZIP package: http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-dawn-of-the-tiberium-age/downloads/dta-v1169

2) Install Microsoft XNA Framework 4.0 Refresh Redist from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=27598

3) Go to the directory where you installed DTA, then go to the "Resources" sub-directory, and from there run "clientxna.exe".

Does DTA work then?
