    I've been playing PA for a While when in the last couple of Builds it suddenly stops working I would like it if someone would take a look at my Dxdiag and tell me if its anything there.

    Why do I need 9 When I've got 11?

    Okay I pulled two d3dx9_43.dll off my system. This is only a temporary workaround until Uber starts shipping them with the game. Every time there is a update you are going have to put them back in their respective directories. Each one has to go into the proper directory.

    Non-steam version
    The path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Planetary Annihilation\PA\bin_x64
    The path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Planetary Annihilation\PA\bin_x86

    Steam version
    The path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Planetary Annihilation\bin_x64
    The path is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Planetary Annihilation\bin_x86

    Link here is: DX9cWorkarounForPA.zip

    Hopefully this will work

    If you running game though Steam try those two workarounds:

    First try to run game without Steam overlay:
    Right click the game in your Library -> Select Properties -> On the General tab, uncheck the box next to Enable Steam Community In-Game

    Second try to run non-Steam version. Download Uber launcher and try to get game though it:

    Can you please open directory where non-Steam version installed, open "PA" sub directory, then "bin_x86" and run PA.exe from here? E.g:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Planetary Annihilation\PA\bin_x86\PA.exe

    I'm able to open the program. But if I hit start game after creating the lobby or if I just have the program open for too long it crashes.
    Please assist.
    The thread says I'm a new user so I can't post a link to my log report.
