Maybe reinstall the game itself?

Before you do that .. check the correspondence in your NVidia drivers.

If you mean in the Nvidia Graphics issues thread. There is nothing new since my last post. If not can you please elaborate. ?

So sorry my friend overlooked that, may I ask what Nvidia drivers you are using, your Nvidia Control Panel has a lot less options than mine ?

 

I have copied those options that I can and am testing now !

Turn off the internet connection.

install your new driver.

and install this .. it's old ..

but that doesn't matter .. try it .

.. then you install the new one from the Nvidia homepage ..online .. Good luck !

Hard crash just after clearing the airfield.

Scripted Campaign Wind of Fury

 

Had to cold reboot to end the crash. Please see screen shot ( forgive the quality, had to use my mobile).

 

In regard to the drivers, should I use DDU Driver Cleaner? Also if not using DDU do you make a custom install of Nvidia, eg no GF Experience and clean install ?

 

Regards.

O..wow ... I had that too ... your graphics card is defect..possibly overheated .. you tuned it beforehand ?

or.

Some graphics cards have 2 power connections .. I hope you don't forget to plug in one

 

Edited November 18, 2020 by Tomi_099

[fubar_2_niner]

No, also it runs all other games fine. Red Dead 2, CLoD Blitz, RoF, OFF only this seems bad at the moment. I'll try to snatch card temps on next crash.

 

Regards.

 

Fubar

 

[Tomi_099]

Only tune the graphics card if you are sure that you can remove the heat.

In addition, this card is fast enough ... you don't have to tune it.

[fubar_2_niner]

I have not o/c it Tomi, it is a EVGA factory clocked card. I have never adjusted it.

 

I am now running a stress test on my video card!

 

Oh and yes both connectors are plugged in

Then sell this card as fast as you can because it is not suitable for your matherbord.

Everything can go well in another PC with another matherbord.

But one thing I know for sure the error will come more and more often until the card is finally destroyed.

 

..Pity !

I'm running a X299 chipset, Asus Rog Strix board. I would have thought this mobo is more than suitable.

 

PCIe 3.0/2.0 GPU slots.

 

Stress test just finished, card never hit above 51C, no artefacts etc.

 

Also never a problem until the last two updates. I will however try the drivers you kindly linked.

No ..Stop ..

Have you put on the latest bios!

..

Please do not use my drives ..

I suspect that could be the end of your graphics card .

. please do not use !

 

This is not a driver problem .. this is a hardware error!

 

Check whether your graphics / monitor cable is properly seated

Does your monitor manage the graphic resolution?

Edited November 18, 2020 by Tomi_099

[fubar_2_niner]

Not real sure how to will investigate EVGA support, thanks for the timely advice. Will report back findings.

Monitor cable secure, GPU seated firmly. Both monitor and Nvidia control panel set likewise regarding resolution.

Now checking EVGA Support

 

[fubar_2_niner]

UPDATE

 

EVGA support keeps shooting me a 404 msg when I try to get a support ticket. There is a BIOS update for the 2080 Ti, however I'm not sure it applies to my FTW3 specifically.

 

Will try again later.

 

[fubar_2_niner]

Latest test, 

 

40 minutes in playing a scripted mission, latest nvidia drivers. Same render error, no anomalies. Lowering gfx settings a little at a time.

 

More weirdness!

Bodenplatte 262 bomber hunt is borked 262 never takes off! Then after some circles continuously on the field ?????

I have only 16 GB of RAM, but this issue happened only once on my computer. I've played tank mission "In the first wave" and restarted it twice after being destroyed in both attempts. In the third run this bug occurred.  I understand, that catching this error is tricky.

I'll try to run steps you recommended.

You were correct in foreseeing the death of my 2080ti my friend  It bricked two days ago. Still waiting to hear from EVGA.

[Guest deleted@210880]

I used to run the game fine, uninstalled some months ago, and reinstalled. Now I get a D3D_ERROR after a couple of minutes of quick mission flying, I can hear the game running for a bit but then after clicking the error messages it crashes fully.

 

I've reinstalled the game but still get it. Any ideas? When installing the game it tells me I don't need to install Net4.0 (or whatever it is) as I already have it, other than that it seems to install ok.

 

All other games I have installed run ok (incuding CloD)

 

 

[Guest deleted@210880]

@-DED-Rapidus

 

Checked temperature of GPU using GPU monitor and they remain steady until this error when it seems  the graphics cut out and so temperatures drop. I can continue to hear my aircraft fly into the ground.

 

 

 

 

 

UPDATE:

 

I think I may have found my issue. In my Nvidia control panel settings I had a setting of 'Optimise for Compute Performance' as On, I think after settign it to Off I'm not seeign the crash of my graphics, only done two tests so far but no error (fingers crossed).

 

So for NVidia users, check that you have this setting in place, not 'On':

I recenrly purchased IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946 from the Steam Store. I successfully ran PLAY and got the game to load.. I then purchased "IL-2 Stumovik: Battle of Stalingrad " and "IL-1 Stumovik: Flying Circus Volume 1" in the same order from Steam Store since I was told that you must have Battle of Stalingrad before Flying Circus would Play. Well, sir, both games throw a D3D Error 0x887A0004 to the sxreen and I immediately  get dropped back to the Play Screen when I click the OK button of the Error box. I have reinstalled both "Dxdiag SDK" from MS and the "NVidia GeForce 260" video card drivers from NVidia with no effect.  I have read the complete thread of this forum and have no idea how to fix the issue. HELP

[OlPaint01]

I recently discovered the genre of IL-2 Sturmovik games on Steam. I bought "IL-2 StrumovikL 1946" from the Steam Store since years ago I played the DOS game on my old desktop computer. I have now a new tower with a NVidia GeForce 260 video card. I am playing "IL-2 StrumovikL 1946" wiith no issues. A recent ad for IL-2 Sturmovik: Flying Circus Volume 1" caught my eye. I purchased it and "IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad" from the Steam Store. I installed "IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad"  but to my chagrin the game throws and D3D error 0x887A0004. I have attached screen shots of two particular Error popups. When I click the OK, I get dumped back to the PLAY screen.

The game absolutely refuses to PLAY. with the error prevent me from even installing the Game.

I have been reading these forum threads but cannot find a fix. I have reloaded DXDIAG SDK, and I have upgraded my NVidia display card drivers. But no Joy!

When is going to fix or repair this D3D error from interfering with installing and Playing any of these very interesting game. I tryed another game "IL-2 Strumovik: Cliffs of Dover" fo give it another go at a fresh install. But I again get the same old D3D error 0x887a0004 which dumps my back to the PLAY screen. 

It seems that not everyone has this issue and can run your games with no problem   ID3D Error 0x887a0004 Fix.txt refuse to buy any more of your DLC games on Steam until fix this problem for me. Sorry, I am extremely disappointed with your products.

It looks like you don't meet the minimum requirements to run the game.

 

 

You have a NVidia GeForce 260

A GTX 660 is the absolute minimum requirement and the 260 is significantly below this.

The GTX260 only supports directX 10 (just) and IL2 runs in DirectX 11. That is why you are getting this error.

 

You can find the minimum requirements on the steam store page you bought the game from. They are always worth checking.

I recently discovered the IL-1 Strumovik franchise on Steam. I had played the DOS version of "IL-1 Strumovik: 1946" on my old computer years ago.  So  I purchased DLC for both "Battle of Stalingrad" and "Flying Circus Volume 1" from Steam Store. After I installed both into my Steam Library, I attempted to PLAY Battle of Stalingrad. I immediately got D3D ERROR message "Can not create Direct3Device DXGI_ERROR _UNSUPPORTED (0x887a004)".  When I Click OK, I get unceremoniously dumped back to the Steam PLAY screen for the game.. The game has refused to run.  I ran the Verify Files in Properties with no effect on the D3D Error. It is interesting that "IL-1 Strumovik: 1946" runs with no issues in Steam. I then ran the DXDIAG SDK and I updated my video card drivers for my NVidia GeForce 260. Still getting the D3D Error. I ran WinZipDriverUpdater thinking that there might to a missing DLL file causing the issue. Still getting D3D Error.

I purchased the DLC for "IL-2 Strumovik: Battle of Britain Blitz" to see if I could play it. Still getting D3D Error for that game as well.

I have searched through all this forum for a possible solution. But No Joy. I am very disappointed that the entire DLC content for Strumovik refuses to play on my desktop computer With the exception of "IL-12 Strumovik: 1946". I promise I will not purchase any more DLC from Strumovik until this error is corrected by the developers. I am extremely disappointed.

Ah the GTX260. Happy days. I had hair I could brush (on my head not my in my ears) and could still laugh without involuntarily pissing myself back then... 

 

Sh.......I even thought Id gotten away with having kids too!

 

The titles you mention are not DLC to 1946 and not marketed in any way as such. Your error Im afraid.

I satisfy all the minimun computer requirements but I donot have a Video Card that is capable of running the "Il-2 Stumovik Battles" DLC. What card do you recommend and I will upgrade to it. Can you guarantee that the Video Card upgrade from your experience will run all the games? That will be quite and investment for me, for sure.

Its not DLC. Its a different game engine to 1946 totally. I would not rely on minimum specs at all either.  I think few would be bold enough to give you any guarantees without knowing your full system spec. 

 

[OlPaint01]

What Video card do you recommend? (DBS)Browning says that GeForce GTX 660 is minimum. I am not an expert of gaming video cards so I depend on other Gamers for advice. I would like a card with "toe room" for sure.

[BOO]

Please try to keep your posts in one forum or the other - that way people can can help you better and you will be better able to keep track of there replies. It will help others to help you if you post up your full system details (Processor, RAM, PSU etc). Minimum specs are not a great guide. Simply posting a GPU recommendation without knowing what else you have in the box isnt going to guarantee anything for you. 

[OlPaint01]

I ran DXDIAG and got the specs for my ASUS tower. I think I have the minimum Windows 10 OS requirements for running Stumovik DLC. I attach a screen shot. I just need to upgrade my Video Card, correct?

[PatrickAWlson]

I was playing with the 960 some time ago and it worked reasonably well on medium graphics settings.  Looked at them and they still go for around $200 while other, apparently later ones are are much cheaper.  Not really up on every NVidia card ever made so I do not know why a 960 costs 200 but a 1070 can be had for 80.

Your processor doesnt meet the minimum spec either Im afraid. I originally ran this game on similar but very very badly. Since then there have been many changes. I would not guarantee any success with your current system even with a new video card.

I am happy with the Gtx 1070, however the system as a whole needs to be up to date as simulators such als Il-2 are especially CPU heavy.

[[DBS]Browning]

If you post your full system specs, we can recommend a video card.

It would not be good for anyone to recommend a card until we know the rest of your system is up to a standard.
