n0vis0ry 10 Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Hello, got a problem with my Arma 2 OA/ DayZ Mod. Since some days I am getting a error which says "display adapter does not support format d24s8 for x8r8g8b8". I figured out BE triggering this error but I dont know how to fix that. Anyone of you guys have any solutions? Edited February 22, 2015 by n0vis0ry Forum fucked around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 3948 Posted February 22, 2015 Change the format for which its being displayed. and what format is format d24s8 for x8r8g8b8? Does it actually say that or did you just fill it in with odd numbers and characters? Display adapter is your GPU (graphics card) from my guess is your gpu handle a resolution higher then what it supports and since you chose a higher res you get the error, just my guess.

badluckburt 78 Posted February 22, 2015 I dug up an old thread so please don't necro it but: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?129694-Display-adapter-does-not-support-format-D24S8-for-X8R8G8B8 The solution appears to be updating your drivers / making sure it doesn't try to feed off your on-board GPU. I doubt BE has anything to do with it to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough, I can't argue with that :) Have you tried reinstalling Battleye? And regardless of BE, it does also seem to be related to on-board / dedicated graphics so if you have both, try disabling on-board to see if it goes away.

ProfTournesol 956 Posted February 23, 2015 Still cant open the game with BE. Getting directly that error. Sorry for that. I was just pointing you to a post of the dev of BE, because there have been several troubles with it recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n0vis0ry 10 Posted February 25, 2015 No one got any solution not even the Arma or BE DEVS? Things I tried which aint working: Reinstalling Battleye several times. Reinstalled/updated gfx driver Checking the game for problems with steam. I got no clue what can I still do to fix this problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunter Severloh 3948 Posted March 2, 2015 Did you review most of the posts in the thread for steam, as what I have read there alot of the issues have been fixed, you should post on there and ask that EYE character see whats wrong for you. Really not much help other then that from the forum here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
