Original Post — Direct link

My Anno sandbox game has crashed 3 times today with a Direct X error. This has not happened to me before, is anyone experiencing the same and is the crew aware? Perhaps something I can do to fix on my end? TIA

Hello everyone, thank you for posting about this.

We are aware of error messages with DirectX, if you have been affected by this, would you be able to screenshot the exact message you receive?

At the moment we know some players who have played the game for some time, who then go to start a new campaign may be greeted with this error, but knowing that this can also happen when the game is paused for a time, is something we can pass onto the team.

If anyone could provide a screenshot of this DirectX error code message, that would be grand.

Before I ask anyone for their system files I would like to ask you to >

1.Make sure not to overclock your system and run your system at stock values, disabling any overclocking software whilst playing
2.Swap between DirectX 11 and 12 in the game's settings, to test the stability of the game
3.Run through all the steps in our troubleshooting guide >
