ERROR: NVSDK_NGX_D3D12_Init failed

Hey there everybody,

Diablo II: Resurrected only uses DirectX 12 so there’s no way to force it into DirectX 11. The fact that uninstalling graphics card drivers works is interesting and unexpected. Has anybody tried installing an earlier driver for their Nvidia cards to see if it works? If anybody else is getting that error, can you let us know what GPU you’re using? It doesn’t seem to be happening with all Nvidia cards right now so it’ll help to know what you have in common.

If swapping to an older driver works, please let us know what version works for you.

If you’re still having trouble after trying a few older nvidia drivers, please generate a text copy of your DxDiag using these instructions. Once you have that made, open the file. Copy the code below, then copy/paste everything from that DXDiag file between the rows of tilde (~) marks where it says “DXDiag goes here.”

If the file’s too large to submit, you can upload it to a file hosting site like pastebin and post the link in the code above instead.
