    Seriously, Fix the DirectX issue already!

    [/rant on]
    Im getting really tired of the DirectX error that occurs when playing the game in Full Screen. I know having it in Windowed removes this, but why should we have to do that?

    I always seem to encounter it when I initiate a levequest, or go into a Dungeon and it's really grating on me.
    [/rant off]

    Could one of the Community Team members have a look into how long it will take to fix this... please

    The rendering engine needs a major rework. But I doubt anything will change before PS3 release :/

    I think the full screen toggle crash should also be dealt with it's 2011 people! This seems like a major bug that affects every user of XIV you'd think they'd have some plans of getting rid of it by now...

    I've played quite a few PC games in 2011 that still has programming and DX utilization issues. It's 2011, issues will always exist in gaming, especially PC gaming.

    I haven't played ANY PC games that take nearly a YEAR to fix an issue like this. If people found a 3rd party temporary fix months ago, SE should have had this fixed by now. It's getting a bit ridiculous at this point.

    Use a program called 'Gamer's Window Relocator', and play in windowed mode. It's removes the border and works flawlessly. Then you can even tab out of FFXIV to check out items on yg.com for example.

    If you use Windows 7 you can also turn frame snapping off and just drag the window outside the screen. I'd still like a fix to the issue though as I prefer to browse, work, and play in different resolutions.

    It's still a major issue. Especially if you have to control+alt+dlt in windows 7, then that shuts down the game as well.
