Dx12 : won't launch

from AshesoftheSingularity Forums

moved to Win10 this weekend.

 

If I select "Dx12" from inside Steam, the screen flickers and then nothing (back to steam)

If I go manually to the file location (inside \common\ folder), and run the Ashes_Dx12.exe, the game starts but I believe it is only DX11 based on the results from the benchmark tests.

 

So DX11 laucnhes with either .exe and DX12 won' launch from Steam at all (DX11 does launch from steam)

 

System Specs:

GF560-Ti-448

Asus P8z68

2500K

Windows 10

 

What am I doing wrong?

I have test a Gtx 780 that not have dx 12 but runs on dx12 windows 10  on this game,dont use dx12 but runs on Ashes_DX12.

What you showld do like i did when not work its unstail all ashes game and instal again and be sure lunch from local directory has admin.

 

If will work or not dont know, but try.

But on my tests the diference between Dx11/Dx12 with a card that suport only DX11 its minimal.

umm...gtx780 does support DX12

 

 

...and...as I said (and you quoted), I am running the _dx12.exe version from the game folder...it runs, but in DX11 mode.
