Latest 1.76u Update
Subject description: New Update Crash
Hello,
I had the auto update update my DTA install to the "u" and it has since crashed. Reinstalled the game (to the U update) and it still crashed. Guess I need to update to the last good install point and run from there. Just letting everyone know about the latest update. If anyone else has this issue, please post. Any quick fixes would be appreciated. QUICK_EDIT
For the DTA team to identify the problem, you should give more information like check the client.log file in Client sub-folder where the game is installed.
Tried 3 uninstall and reinstalls. No go. Reverted back to earlier version. Everything runs good. So, don't know what the issue is. Running Windows 7/64. Even the newest y crashes. The error looks like a GFX error. Had everything set up right. Unless the new install reset the GFX driver to "Default" and won't let me run the game. Went into the config file and attempted to reset the drive manually. It was still a no go. Anyway, running older version works great. Maybe next update will work for me. QUICK_EDIT
Anyone having problem with the new SharpDX version, has problems at different places, probably the developers didn't test it thoroughly. So the entire DX code could be put into the try catch exception construct and when there is problem could switch to XNA. Or even go back to older version of SharpDX if there is not much change.

That's not a good idea and also practically impossible, there's a ton of graphics-related code spread in multiple libraries.
The top-level exception handler could still detect it, but we'll first see if the next update's better check helps. From what I can tell, most incompatibility crashes happen right on startup when the first texture is loaded. _________________ CnCNet Client | CnCNet TS patches | More Quality-of-Life Improvements for RA Remastered
Hello,
Yes, I tried the auto updater and the full install. I will attempt to update to 1.176y again. If it has an error, I will posting. Busy this weekend but I will try and find time to upload the error message DTA sends. QUICK_EDIT
Still a no go. Just install old version and it works. I think that it is definitely a DX problem. Don't know what broke, but it won't even allow me to load up anything. QUICK_EDIT
I updated the the Usx but the game still does not load. It give me the error of simply contact the DTA staff. Seems that I need to play the older version for now. QUICK_EDIT

Fixed the problem (sort of). DTA used to be able to run in 4k. Now, xna will not run it past 2048 (or something like that. PLEASE fix the xna to run at 4k. The game looked beautiful running at 4k. Thanks. QUICK_EDIT
I am also getting windows error 80070103 on my laptop screen after the windows update. Kindly let me know if anyone has idea regarding this kind of error in windows OS. QUICK_EDIT
The link for Windows update in my previous post is for Windows 7 only, which implements partial DirectX 11.1. It is not for any other operating system. Windows 10 already has better DirectX version. QUICK_EDIT
