RIFT Requires DirectX 9 - Missing Buttons On Character Creation Screen

[Dadrhus]

I have not been able to log into a character screen with buttons to select a server add characters etc. I have access to a technical support team (non Rift/Glyph) that access's my computer remotely showed them this forum & while one session they were able to load additional characters when I viewed the screen there was no bag access or icons to do settings etc. I am paid a year in advance but have not been able to play since Summerfest. How would I go about getting Glyph or Rift technical support or remote support. Have upgraded to windows 10 in an effort to fix as well all to no avail?

Windows 10 wouldn't have the full, backward compatible DirectX 9.0c files Rift needs to run.

Use this link and let it update any missing files:

Clicked the link downloaded this file to the same file folder my tech support people used by hitting "overwrite all" loaded game after re booting and still same problem. Anything or other ideas for a solution would be greatly appreciated

I don't need a DirectX9 installation under Windows 10 anymore for a long time.
I just enable DirectPlay and Rift works fine.

There is a relation of people buying ready made 'gaming rigs' (usually overheating laptops) and going all karen on minor inconveniences.

The op and links are 7 years old- regarging drivers that's a century.
Money back for the computer or the free game?


You can literaly google the dx9 drivers and head to the Windows driver page.


Dx9 should be providet by Glyph indeed but my god you went over the top here.
