Posted 10 years ago
Hi. I can't install SweetFX for Risen 3. I used this guide from http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/view/install/ But when i start game crashes. I have used manual installation, did not help. In BF4 SweetFX working correctly. Log: full path: D:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Risen 3\system\ redirecting CreateDevice initialising shader environment D3DXCreateEffectFromFile failed try to use "D:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Risen 3" for shader files

Hi there, It sounds like you're having trouble installing SweetFX for Risen 3. I understand how frustrating that can be. From the log you provided, it seems like there might be an issue with locating the shader files. The error message "D3DXCreateEffectFromFile failed" indicates that the game is having difficulty loading the shader effects from the specified path. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you could try: Verify File Paths: Double-check that the file paths specified in your SweetFX configuration match the actual locations of the shader files on your system. Sometimes small typos or incorrect paths can cause these kinds of issues. Compatibility: Ensure that the version of SweetFX you're using is compatible with Risen 3. Sometimes certain versions of SweetFX might not work well with specific games due to differences in how they're programmed. Permissions: Make sure that the folder where Risen 3 is installed has the necessary permissions for SweetFX to read and write files. Sometimes, restricted permissions can prevent SweetFX from functioning properly. Reinstall: If all else fails, you might want to try reinstalling both Risen 3 and SweetFX from scratch. This can sometimes resolve any corrupted files or configuration issues that could be causing the crashes. I hope one of these suggestions helps you get SweetFX up and running for Risen 3.
