DirectX 11 Errors

[kejoca]

Update: The worst has happened. I've always been able to do the non-5.1 content until tonight. I tried teleporting to Rak'tika woods and I crashed (no error, no popup) before even ending the teleport. Now my character is in that zone, but I instant-crash before the loading screen finishes when logging back in. The loading screen appears to be in an endless loop (the image with a spinning loading wheel).

I AM NO LONGER ABLE TO LOG ON AND PLAY BECAUSE OF THIS.

Same thing just happened to me, been playing new content just fine. Up till an hour ago got my first crash, thought nothing of it logged back in and decided to go to crystarium, and I instantly crashed with the dx11 error, and now that I'm there, the game crashes during loading screen. Funny thing is I'm still able to play on my other characters with no problems, as well as on my laptop

Similarly, I can log onto one of my alts just fine on another shard, but I have not tried bringing him to the same zone as my now stuck character (since he is too low level).

It is quite depressing that I now cannot play my main just before the weekend starts...

Same here. In my case , the game worked just fine even after the 5.1 patch . But today it suddenly crashed while I was flying over Lakeland . Now I can't even log in because it keeps crashing on loading screen . I've tried everything and nothing worked . I tried to log in on like seven different PC and none of them made any difference . I think it's not our problem. I'm sure that game itself is causing this error . This is my guess, but maybe something has gone wrong with our character data uploaded to the server.

Think found what might be causing them for me he has no face and before 5.1 he had his face for me.

A complete reinstall with absolutely no tweaking of graphics settings or resolution, etc results in the exact same problem (crashing upon login before loading screen finishes with no error popup).

Unplayable.

Same problem here, got these error messages when I tried to enter in Copied Factory new raid. Kept crashing on loading screen until I got kicked out of the instance.

Switched to DX9 :

Clean reinstalled graphic card driver (GTX 1060 laptop), still crashing. I'll probably try to reinstall the game.

I'm wondering why the error date is from a week ago though...

Following my first post, I've tried some manips to see if I was still crashing :

- Video card reinstalling with Display Driver Uninstaller : Crash,
- Game reinstalling : Crash,
- Unplugging all my devices and switching off bluetooth : Crash,
- Deactivating Windows security system : Crash,
- Synchronizing graphic card parameters in Full HD 1080p in 60Hz and 75Hz in Nvidia Config : Crash,
- Deleting and reinitializing FF14 config files in My Documents > Games : Crash,
- Tested in 60, 75 and unlimited FPS in FF14 config according to Hz : Crash,
- Changed install folder from my External SSD to my internal HDD : Crash,
- Switched back to old launcher : Crash,
- Tried to enter in the raid in both DF and PF : Crash,
- Tried in windowed, windowed without borders and full screen modes : Crash,
- Tried with and without my monitor : Crash,
- Did all my Windows updates : Crash.

Only thing that changed after reinstalling the game was I am now crashing without the above-mentionned error pop-up, loading screen is now freezing then back to desktop.

If anyone has another ideas excepting buying a new computer, that would be nice... !

UPDATE: Every PC I used to find problem had window10, so this time I tried logging in with windows 8.1& dx9. Surprisingly, I was able to exit the loading without error, and even succeeded to escape from lakeland. I tested it only for a short time so idk if the problem is completely solved. Maybe the same error may occur again if I stay logged in for a long time, or log in with windows 10. Hope this helps!

Should we try something like launching FF14 with W8 compatibility mode, if anyone can give it a try, don't want to wait 30 more minutes to see if I find a party before crashing... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

When I opened a SE support ticket they recommended I try launching ffxivboot.exe/ffxivboot64.exe in Windows 7 compatibility mode and that actually let me load into the game for once before I moved into a new area and the errors and crashes started again. I just tried with Windows 8 compatibility and I'm still getting crashes. It's worth a try at least.
