PS : I've tried a bunch of fixes from google, nothing seems to work >:

thats a lot of pop up window errors at the same time

im also having this issue now every few minutes, i got this crash

they are usually stacked. next time that happens, try moving the error window, you'll see that there is more than one pop up :((((
mine only happens when i try to log into the game though :c

Try to find if there is any updates of your graphic drivers.
If not, you can try to delete and re download them.
If it still does the error, reinstall the game.

It’s a directX error and it is mainly related to your gpu.

how is it? still having error and crash?

yep :>
starting to freak out a little bit. everything else seems to be working fine :((((

Do you have the game installed on the C drive (same drive as your OS) if you don't, I would completely uninstall and reinstall on the C drive.
Usually those DX errors pop up after certain game files get corrupted, usually related to the drive the game is installed on not being C, but a secondary or external drive being used.

You can try installing the game in the Program Files folder (if the x86 version folder still gives this error), or install the game directly on to the C drive "This PC > Windows > Here" for example.
If you still get the errors, I would test by installing on a different drive, even an external drive and see if it makes any difference at all.

unfortunately i can't install it on c:. it was always on an external drive, so idk what changed. at this point, the game takes up too much space and my ssd don't have a lot of it :(
i'm gonna try another drive though, i'll update if it works. thank you!!! xox

PS : Installing the game on a separated hdd seems to be working. Logged in a few times and haven't gotten that error yet. Not on (C:) with OS, or (D:) with the usual storage stuff. Although, can't confirm or deny that'll work on (C:) because i don't have that much space left to try it.

Thank you all for the help!
Special thanks to [Final-Fantasy] xox ~

idk what that is, but probably not. if it's something related to enhancing graphics or any type of mods, DEFINITELY NOT!
my setup is cheap and humble so i play on low settings with everything turned off.

but as i've stated in my previous post, installing on a separate drive worked.
thanks for the help ~
