Rome Total War 1 (Not Working - DirectX 9)

[epcbacn77]

Hello

Im having a problem with getting Rome 1 working on my Windows 10 machine. It says DirectX 9 is not installed which it is.

I downloaded DX9 from this site: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=8109

Hope someone can help!

Thanks

I had the same problem with windows 10 and rome 1. I forgot what I did exactly but I did get it to work, I think you have to go into the prefrences.txt file and disable anti aliasing or it wont launch for whatever reason. It should be in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Rome Total War Gold\preferences. If you use steam.

"AA_Quality_AA:" needs to be set to off it should look like this "AA_Quality_AA: Off".

Basically find your RTW preferences folder and change your resolutions to the resolutions of your display.

Have fun

Yeah I knew it was something in that folder. Weird I never had that issue with win 8.1.
