Hello, try to deactivate PysX in the option.txt file usually located in C:\Users\<your account>\AppData\Local\Ascaron Entertainment\Sacred 2 (AppData is hidden by default), find the line detail_physx = and put 0 instead of 1 (hoping it's on 1 already), you should so have detail_physx = 0. Save and close the file and start game to see.

 

Hope this helps. (?)

It was "0".

Maybe is a patch or something that can help?

There is the CM patch but I doubt it resolves this error => http://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?/files/

 

Alternatively you can read this post https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/933200-sacred-2-fallen-angel/47357848 , basically it says to update your video card drivers (important), update PhysX version (even if you are on an ati. I would recommand to install PhysX Legacy Driver http://www.nvidia.com/object/physx-9.12.1031-legacy-driver.html ).

 

You can try that.

I installed patch, DX9, Physx Legacy, and still not working. :/

Maybe I will redownload and reinstall the game? I verified a integrity of files against I write this topic, but when I redownload and reinstall the game all redists will reinstall.

(Yes, I can install redists from Sacred 2 folder but a PhysX is bugged, I think beacuse I have a AMD.)

If you dont have any ideas I will do that.

I don't think reinstalling the game will solve the issue. You have updated your video card drivers?

 

edit: found that on another forum:

ok it works now. I had to reinstall all 3 files (PhysX, VC, DX) + start this game in steam with "-nocpubinding -skipopenal"+ run it in windows XP SP3 mode + run it as admin

Still no luck? pff :)

 

What are the PhysX drivers version you have? If it's anything else than 9.12.063, uninstall them and install this instead => http://www.nvidia.com/object/physx-9.12.0613-driver.html

 

If it still doesn't work, you can try the latest one => http://www.nvidia.com/object/physx-9.16.0318-driver.html but first try the 9.12.063 as it seems to be the good ones to run Sacred 2 when having difficulties.

 

Good luck!

 

edit: don't forget to reboot the pc

I Installed PhysX from second link and this is working so much! Thank you!
