CreateShaderResourceViewEx: Wrong Parameter

Must be nice to have enough spare $$$ to fix a game by replacing your hardware.
Maybe another year, one that hasn't been screwed so badly.

RIP Path of Exile. ;-(
If you are using laptop, try switching your default intel gpu to nvidia.

just play you game at home or ask your company IT guy to upgrade the card of your office computer

it's nice to know that GGG has no care for individuals who want to play this game on older systems, nor have the money to spend on new tech every single time there is an update. Shame on you, GGG. fix this crap!

I'm on the newest tech, albeit a MacBook Pro M1. Tried the experimental mac release and that didn't do anything so I downloaded a trial for CrossOver and that gives this error. I'll play on my PC but would have loved to have this option for even a suboptimal performance on the go.
It is a common sense that don't play computer game on notebook...also you are using native macOS or cracked with Windows? I don't know the spec of MacBook Pro M1, but if it is onboard display chip instead of dedicated graphic card , it may high likely not fully supporting Vulkan or DX11.


Also it is a common sense that to claim it is a bug / need tech support, state all the hardware spec and software info like OS, driver, etc.

Yeah, of course. I was only looking for an alternative to the poorly done experimental Mac release. This can run Civ 6 on ultra everything on large maps and cruise through late game. MacOS but with a trial of a wine bottler application called CrossOver that does run many Windows applications using DX11, I believe. I'm curious if this workaround would have worked before this bug showed up for PC users as well.

I really just have to hold out hope that they put more work into the mac release.
As a programmer and with having experience on working on several large game projects I know for a fact that providing support for older shaders is something that could have been done in this situation.

Normally when dropping older card support its done to eliminate graphics issues. Not because they dont work but because they perform poorly or look bad. By cutting those machines out it makes your game appear to perform better since the machines that would of lagged out cant run it anymore. Tacky but happens.

Another reason for doing it has to do with kickbacks. Lets just say it makes manufactures happy when people have to upgrade :)


But in this situation the part I find ridiculous isn't that they did what they did as far as rending so many people unable to play the game anymore. Its the fact they didnt even bother to answer questions about what THEY did on their OWN support site.

Its pretty sad when players have to provide tech support for a game.
