kklownboy 43 Posted March 8, 2013 Go to MS and install DX Web updater, or even get the full Redist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carzilla 2 Posted March 9, 2013 Go to MS and install DX Web updater, or even get the full Redist. Cool thank you for the tip. I was browsing the Arma 3 folder and found a DirectX subfolder. -I ran the installer within the folder and it did a patch -Then I did a check game integrity on steam, I had to DL a file that was bad -I launched it again and steam did the DirectX install again and the game launched properly. ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gorbachev 1 Posted March 9, 2013 kovacs, I'm going to assume you're set up like 99% of average users.. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ From there, go to ArmA3 then look for directx or similar. In there is an executable that will update your directx. I just did mine, so thank you Carzilla. It's been a long time since the redist decided I was over-due for an update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
