Direct x 11 error Can't Log In

[goblingoil]

I tried to log into the game with the launcher after maintenance this morning and now I'm getting this error message with directx 11. My system can definitely run it. The game launches fine, and then suddenly goes black screen after hitting the play button and closes. I've seen some others having this issue.

After fresh installing the game, apparently i got the same EXACT error as well when trying to log in as both my main and alts

I really hope they will fix this issue

[Warcurious]

I am having the exact same errors but it occurred during the game. I tried to restore game data but it had no effect


Here is my system info:

I am having a similar issue. At a friend's suggestion I restored all of my files and after that didn't work the game ran fine with the direct X 9 option in the launcher settings. Been playing since May 2021 and it was working just fine before maintenance yesterday 3/7/2022.

Note: my error message is slightly different in that the writing is Japanese but the DX 11 issues are similar.

Good morning everyone and thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

Please try the following to see if these methods help resolve the issue:
- Try switching to DirectX 9 by selecting the ‘Config’ button on the launcher.
- Update and reinstall the drivers for your graphics card and sound drivers (if applicable).
- Perform a clean boot by opening the task manager and select the 'Start up' Tab. Disable everything.
- Please be sure that Final Fantasy XIV is installed to the C: Drive.
- Please be sure to disable or remove any overlays (Discord, Steam. etc.) as they may interfere with startup.
- Make sure that the Windows OS is fully updated.

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums!
