[Solved] PhysX error?

[LeandroHunter]

I tried to play this game, and after the instaled, I receive this message:

The PhysX Physics SDK could not be created.
Please download and install the latest version of the PhysX drivers from http://www.nvidia.com

Same error, pretty sure mine is up to date as well, downloading latest from nvidia anyway.

Win 7 x64
Q9750 (o/c but stable locked 1:1 mem timing)
ATI HD4890

Latest driver didn't work either. Until this is fixed, recommend anyone with ATI stay away as it won't even open.

I had the same problem, at first. A restart of Steam and my computer fixed the issue.

Solution:

1. Navigate to the install Directory (Steamapps/common/Dogfighter).
2. Go to the Redist folder
3. Create a shortcut of 'PhysX_9.10.0129_SystemSoftware' to the desktop
4. Edit the shortcut and put /passive and the end of the command promt (".... .exe" /passive)
5. Run the shortcut
6. Restart Steam once it has installed
7. Voila!

I was just going to post that from http://www.dogfighter-game.com/forum....php?f=5&t=245 under stephen's post. Worked for me.

Side note... the game sucks imo, not worth even the 12 bucks :/ Controls are absolutely horrible. I was hoping it'd be even remotely close to crimson skies feel... this is just clunky and completely un-natural in any sense of physics (arcade or not)

Oh, works so fine, thanks!

But, the controls... :/

Awesome that worked thanks for posting.

I think the controls are slick and intuitive. It's an arcade shooter, but you still need a basic understanding of angles of attack if you want to do well. Within 10 minutes, I had the controls down and was navigating the maps like I knew what I was doing.

I don't know - I have only played the game on my 360 game pad. Maybe the disgruntled guy was using his keyboard.

If you ment me... I'm using a ps3 controller being emulated as a 360 controller (much better analog sticks). My largest complaint is the lack of being able to roll properly, it'll just flip you over at random when you go full bore, and the "advanced" mode is about as accurate as driving down the road without your tie-rods.

Sorry just not my cup 'o tea.

Has the fix not worked for anyone?

Controls seem to be a divisive issue. Sorry that you feel that way Kyouto42, at this time I usually say submit your feedback to a forum but actually in this case I see its already on one. Will get sean to respond to this thread

[zenpunk]

had the same problem.. the fix worked for me

Sorry you feel that way Kyouto. We are always open to suggestions on how you would make it better though.

Sorry you feel like that mate. DogFighter is not going to be everyone's cup of tea and I've had comments ranging from:
"MAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THIS CRAP!!!"
to
"THIS IS TEH AWESOME SAUCE"

The sad fact is that I just wont be able to keep everyone happy.

However, if I find a growing consensus of thought about a particular facet of DogFighter, I always at least look into it and in this case we are looking at our control peripheral support if not the actual controls and flight model themselves.
