As of February 15, 2022, STO and NW will no longer be supporting Windows 7 or a Video Card with a Direct3D Feature Level less than 11. Players who do not meet the updated requirements will get a pop-up over the launcher indicating this and the launcher will close automatically when clicking OK. It will not be possible to…

Also the banning part that is being harped on is not what I originally said. I didnt say a user is getting banned over it. I said "banning it" reffereing to windows 7 being barred/banned from running their game.

Directx version the windows 7 machines I have here is 11 DDI version on them is also 11. Ran into this when path of exile upgraded a few months ago. Tons of people ran into problems with the game suddenly not loading after a patch. The directx requirement went up to 11. Its all graphics card related as to what you can and…

Discontinued support doesnt cut it when you block someone from running your game with the hardware they have. There isnt inflaming. Its called FACTS. If the hardware cant run it aka gives a crash or windows error then that might fall under discontinued support. Forcing the program to close because of some lame version…

Now if this is poorly worded and it really means "If you dont have d3d feature level 11 the launcher will close and you cant login or patch the game. But we dont support windows 7 but that will not cause the launcher to close and not allow login or patching." Then I dont see a problem at all. But their post says windows 7…

I think this ... Not being able to log in or patch the game is pretty clear on the not being able to play the game aka banning them.
-
Not supporting it makes perfect sense. Banning it from playing doesnt.

I have no idea wtf your babbling about. I RUN windows 10. Im pointing out there is no reason to prevent windows 7 users from running the game.

The work around doesnt change what the game was trying to do with a component of windows 10. Also I didnt say windows 10 wasnt secure or anything else. What I said was that there is no reason to "try" to make people not use windows 7 for this game. My main complaint with windows 10 in itself is its flat UGLY to look at…

Your not understanding how its being used. Windows has an off option for location data. But when a program uses it inside itself via calling the function your choices are ignored. One example of a recent program using this is outriders. It wont run unless it can call that function. Took awhile to make a work around for…

The engine in this game is so out of date that "requiring windows whatever..." is beyond stupid. There is nothing in this game that would make an os check needed since windows 7 supports dx11 just fine. It can even do dx12 if a game developer wants to provide it. So doing a version check and shutting down based on it not…

I had a friend that had this problem with another game. Run dxdiag. You can either click start then run and enter dxdiag there or in windows 10 enter it in the search box. Now look for the ddi version. Its the actual hardware version you running. Just because you dx whatever installed doesnt mean anything about the actual…

I did find some places claiming the M version of the 1800 being able to do 10.1 so its strange its not working. Your drivers in the screenshot show 2016 so maybe update the video driver?
-
According to nvidias specs your fx 1800 card is ddi 10.0 not 10.1 which is probably the requirement they set in the launcher. Strange it shows 11.1 for the ddi screenshot you posted which it definitely is not able to do.

The game pve wise as it is now is FAR better than the original. I played back when it was in beta and the game itself was near as nice as it is now. That said pvp in beta ROCKED. Its why I bought a lifetime subscription the second it was available. Then a few weeks after launch they nerfed it into crapola. Thats the only…
