ffxiv directx error 1100002

So, I actually managed to "fix" it (Touch wood, hasn't happened yet since I've done this.) by disabling my steam-overlay and the "fullscreen optimizations" on both .exe files in the FFXIV game folder. Yesterday it'd crash once randomly during a dungeon or raid, now that I've made those changes it hasn't happened once out of 5 dungeon runs. Really odd. I've never had them off before, so maybe an update to FFXIV botched something?

Hey! Has this fixed it for you? I've been running the game using the 'normal' launcher and via steam so I'm wondering if disabling fullscreen optimizations is also a non-steam thing?

Ever since I've made these changes, not one crash in the dungeon I would always crash in, even after non-stop 10 runs. I'm still trying not to jinx it, but for some reason doing both of those where I disabled the steam-overlay and fullscreen optimizations for BOTH .exe files in the game folder has seemed to make a difference. They were never off to begin with, so it's quite odd as to why they're causing issues only after a patch.
