DirectX error running Input Configurator

Post by squeezy99 »

Hi,
I have just installed the Covid19 free Warhawk and have an error running the Input configurator.
I am running Windows 10 x64 but with the latest Insider version Build 19603.1000

The error comes up as:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Impossible de charger le fichier ou l'assembly 'Microsoft.DirectX.DirectInput, Version=1.0.2902.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' ou une de ses dépendances. Le fichier spécifié est introuvable.
Nom du fichier : 'Microsoft.DirectX.DirectInput, Version=1.0.2902.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'

Any ideas gratefully recieved.
:shock:

Hi Squeezy,

When you installed the P-40, did the DirectX web installer run successfully at the end of the install process?

Also, just out of interest, which host sim are you using, FSX or P3Dv4?

Thanks,

Hi Nick

I do not remember any installation error.
I could remove and re install to check - is removal just a simple program removal or is some more work needed?

I am using P3Dv4

Squeezy :?

Okay, thanks for the info Squeezy.

No need to reinstall just to check the DX9. Instead you can download the standalone installer from here and run it: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... aspx?id=35.

Other than the input configurator, does everything else seem to be working as expected?

Cheers,

Hi Nick,
I assume it is OK to run DX9 on top of the DX12 installed on Windows 10.
Will give it a try.
Thanks
Squeezy :wink:

Hi Nick,
just ran the DX installer and all is now working. Wonderful.

I have not had a chance to try much yet but I can now take off without the swing to the left. That took some careful adjustments.

I have an early version of the A2A Spitfire on FSX. That was wonderful to fly.
Thanks to you both for the quick response.

Kind regards
Squeezy

:) :) :fsx:

Glad to hear you got it sorted, just a heads up on direct X they are separate so version 12 doesnt replace earlier versions but is additional to them.

And as Nick says, any issues just post 8)
