Description of problem: Upon trying to launch the ranked mod i get the error of directX 9.0c required . I have DX10 on this machine and have no problem launching the unranked mod .
I am a leader of a clan of 250+ members and will poll the members of our clan to see if this problem has occured with anyone else.
I will update this thread with info of others that may have experienced this problem as well .
We host your mod unranked on one of our servers and are looking at getting it ranked if we can get this problem sorted .
I have also reinstalled all video drivers and updated directX twice trying to resolve this issue .
Thanks for the help and a great mod.

Hi Sledge, welcome to the forums...I'm sorry you're having problems running our mod. Judging from the info that you have provided I can tell you without a doubt that it's nothing to do with the mod. A DirectX problem is a client side OS hiccup. I and the other devs run Vista 64bit and have no problems. If it runs on Vista 64bit... its past the test.

Go to Microsoft and run the latest Augiust 08 DirectX. This is not a requirement for the NAW Mod...but it might fix something in your DirectX installation.

Let me know how you get on  Wink

Well installed redis and looked at everything on my end i have had zero problems running the game as the unranked version , all problems have occurred when running the ranked version of the mod .
I have been through all dir paths and diagnosed everything on the video and security side on my end  i have found no other compatability issues except with this program .
One question that will help me is are both shortcuts paths supposed to lead to the same spot and if so then why if it is the same executable file why does one work and the other not?
Thanks for the help , I will also have some clan members looking into this issue ( they are a bit more computer savy than i am)

Both shortcut versions run ranked...the "Ranked" shortcut allows you to see your ranked stats in BFHQ ...that's all. If the  other shortcut gives you no problems...use that. You can always check your personal stats at www.gamestats.ws

 Thanks man i was confused about why both paths were the same . BFHQ stats are the very least of my worries . Now that it is solved and i know i can play on a ranked server we will be looking at clan interest of a ranked server and may very well apply to have ours ranked .
Once again thank you for your time and support .

Hi Sledge,

I have the same problem. Are you running Vista 64 bit or 32 bit?
