Guys, I'm getting the dreaded DirectX error whenever I try to join the server or SP campaign.
"DirectX function "m_dxgiFactory->CreateSwapChain( m_device, &sd, &screen->swapChain.assign.Get())" failed with DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL..................
i5@3570 @ 3.4GHz
8GB RAM
Gigabyte GTX 570
2560x1600
Windows 8.1 64-bit
nVidia Drivers: 331.65
I have lowered GPU core and memory clocks by 10%. This used to happen on BF3. It would be fine after a restart. This trick doesn't work on BF4. BF4 BETA was fine ironically...
Anyone else getting the same issue?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi guys,
I did some digging into this and have spotted a few others that are having this problem. In my research I did come across something that has helped one or two others. Could you please try the following:
Control panel -> Time, Language and Region -> Region -> Administrative tab
Change Language for non-Unicode programs To English(US)
After changing this, try to run the game again. If I'm right you should not get that DirectX error any further.
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks.

When I doubleclick BF4 in Origin, after a few seconds, a dialog box appears, the text as below:
DirectX function "m_dxgiFactory->CreateSwapChain(m_device, &sd, &screen->swapChain.assignGet())" failed with DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL ("The application provided invalid parameter data; this must be debugged and fixed before the application is released."). GPU: "NVIDIA Quadro K1000M", Driver: Unknown
I have reinstalled DirectX and updated the GPU driver, but it still exists.
Any advices?
Thanks in advance.

[quote]To those of you who are recieveing the DirectX function error when joining the game (http://gyazo.com/0062baf5c1a12b41da613d5dd59e1399) try this.
It appears in battlefield 4 folder in my documents there should be a 'settings' folder with 4 files in. This did not exist for me.
After stealing a friends folder and putting it there it worked!
I have uploaded the files here. Download these http://joshtatam.co.uk/battlefield%204/
extract them and put them in your battlefield 4 folder in MY DOCUMENTS
It should look like
My Documents / Battlefield 4 / settings
Hope this helps! [/quote]

if this doesnt work its because your PC doesnt match the requirments or that you have another issue
and update your driver,
if you have NVIDIA Geforce plz download

Thank you for your answer, but in fact, there is only one empty folder under "Documents/Battlefield 4/", only the "Screenshots" folder.
