Direct X 11 not working - War Thunder

[Alliasjay]

Greetings.

I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get War Thunder to run with Direct X11. Keeps giving me this error..



Then after I press OK I get this...




I am on windows 8 with an R9 290.

I have used driversweep in safemode to remove my drivers and then re-install. It still gave me the error so I removed the drivers again and have used some slightly older drivers that my housemate is using as his war thunder works in DX11 without any issue.

Here is a copy of my DXDiag.

DxDiag.txt - 63 KB

I have run a file check in the War Thunder Launcher just incase there was an issue in there.
I have also some a disk check after boot on my main drive incase that is the issue, but that came back clean.

Have also run an SFC scan to check if it fixes the issue, but to no avail. Windows drivers are up to date. Not sure what it is that I am missing. I have also disabled the intel onboard graphics via the bios, incase that was causing an issue.

I have also run 3DMark to see if there was any issue there but came back fine. Ran DX11 without an issue.

Many thanks for your time in this.

Inside War Thunder folder there's a folder called "redist" where it's dx installer is located, try running it and let it patch your DX.

Ah yes, forgot to mention that I had also done that. I have done it again just I ncase, but DX setup has determined that a newer or equivalent version of DX has been installed already.

Thanks for your quick response.

SweetFX incompatability. That was the issue that was causing the error. 'Tis a shame as I do like the look of the SweetFX version.
