This has been happening to me for a few days now when ever I go to try and change my graphics or when I try to change screen the Resolution i get a 105 error and the message Could not initialize direct3D right I have Directx12 if that helps and I've tried reinstall both through steam and the client
Try the solution in this thread. Should work.
So, I love Hurin's posts. THEY ARE AMAZING, THANK YOU, you have solved so many problems for me. There is one thing not in your DirectX posts that fixes many issues for me (even without uninstalling everything) that I finally found - NVIDIA drivers break the DirectX settings if you are running the game in the 64bit client and through Steam (and this may work in the standalone client as well). From this post (https://www.legendarycasual.com/64-b...bit%20launcher.) the issue is that NVIDIA is attempting to run the game through "Integrated Graphics", regardless of its global settings, which looks like it causes it to fail to find the files.
So to fix it, what you do is enter your NVIDIA control panel, click "Manage 3D Settings", find in the screen "Select a program to customize" and click "Add" and look for the file "lotroclient64.exe". Add it, and back in the earlier screen find "Select the preferred graphics processor" and choose something like "High-performance NVIDIA processor".
After doing this, for the first time ever it RECOGNIZED MY DIRECTX 11!!!!! I am crying!!! I have played this game for years and it finally wooooorksssssss.
After wading thru so many posts, his nvidia solution was exactly what I needed!! I thought I was going to have to abandon the game. Thank you Jeffrico!:):):)
I'm trying to follow this but I don't know where you mean the earlier screen with "select the preferred graphics processor" is?Quote:
