jackadision: Apply the below-given solutions to fix DirectX errors with ease....
Fix 1 – Install the previous version of DirectX
Fix 2 – Reinstall your graphics card drivers
Fix 3 – Reinstall one of the previous updates
Fix 4 – Download Visual C++ Redistributables
Fix 5 – Download the missing .dll files
Edit3: Updated error logs as it was in the wrong place.
Edit 2:
in my case the library that's missing is d3d9_39....the installer logs go to 37 and the error reported here says it's 35...so If the installer doesn't have it....that's a big mishap.
dxdiag of course reports everything is fine under DX12.....
Edit: Found the support libraries in GOG\Dependencies\__redist
Same results:
.NET 4 already installed
VC++ already installed
DX FAILS.....
with the same error.
I moved to Windows so I could mod TW2 from Mac OSX....it seems that I can't even run it....weird...
Necroing again because this is ridiculous.
Is 2019 now and on Windows 10 1803(that's the April release of 2018 patch Windows distro) apparently one can't have Witcher 1 from steam and Witcher 2 from GOG on the same system.
When I finished downloading Witcher 1, Steam automatically installed DirectX for me. The game works fine now.
When I was downloading TW2 through the NEW GOG manager I saw the Direct X runtime and the C++ runtime precompiled libraries. Now they've disappeared.
So I've followed the instructions here(except from the posts before me since I've yet to find yet another version of C++) and get a generic error from the offline installer:
It looks like Direct X 9 is already installed but TW2 can't find the D3D libraries....
This is even more ridiculous when you consider that the original installer I used was for the original TW2 as I was an early supporter of GOG and that had the same problem. So why the hell didn't the GOG manager finished its job on the first place?
