[FIX] DirectX8 problem

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

This is a topic on how to fix the DirectX8 issues you have on your system.

 

Nin Online folder is located at program files by default

  • First off make sure you have installed the run time files. The installer can be found in the Nin Online folder. If this doesn't work move on.
  • Download the DX8vb.dll from here. (This is from the installer.)
    Extract the archive and place the DX8VB.dll in the client folder within Nin Online folder.
    Register the dll by going to cmd in elevated or administrator mode. 
    Type in regsvr32  {Where the .dll is located.)
    It would be like this for me
    regsvr32 "c:program filesnin onlineclientdx8vb.dll"
    Hit enter.
    A box should appear saying that it was registered.
    If this doesn't fix the issue then move on.

If the above steps didn't work then you have issues with DX8 not rendering device not initializing properly. To fix this go to the Nin Online folder and from there go to client and then data files.

There should be a config.ini file. Open it up. It should be something like this.

Change the Device=1 to Device=2.

Save the file and re-run the game.

My file is just "config", not "config.ini". And it has no number D: What should I do?

 

Can you tell me exactly what your "config" file says now, that it's fixed?

That was on a diff computer. But just open up config.

The last value before the (') should be changed to 2.

".ini" is the file type, seems you aren't very tech-savvy.

It's still the same file, .ini is the extension just like a .jpg is an extension. I suggest you to look up how to enable it so you always see extensions. I would explain but I am on my cellphone >?< googling "how to enable file extensions in explorer" should work :3
