Hello!
Im having some trouble here, and i don´t know if someone can help me. This warning "A D3D11-compatible GPU (Feature Level 11.0, Shader Model 5.0) is required to run the engine." Is appearing to me when i try to play the game "Path of Titans". I already tried to update all my drivers, update direct x, update vc c++, and a bunch of other stuff that i saw online. I don´t think its my machine, here is my configs: AMD Ryzen 7 5700x 8core 16CPUs. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060ti. Anyone had this trouble before? I can play Avatar Frontiers of Pandora, Planet Zoo, Red Dead 2, and heavier games than Path of Titans. Thanks for reading!

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
Does GPU-Z show all the fields? To me this reads like an Nvidia driver issue, or the engine itself. Other possibility I can think of off the top of my head would maybe be an iGPU that the game somehow detected before the discrete; but that isn’t an issue in your case. I’m just speaking out loud. Try DDU.

Should probably check with Alderon Games, if they have a discussion community for the game (I looked, and couldn't find one, but I don't own the game) -- there is a chance that someone else besides you has run into this issue before you, and someone might have suggested a fix. Or submit a support request directly.

Other than that, potentially check your C++ distributables to make sure they're up to date. You could also try and clean uninstall (DDU in Safe Mode) and reinstall of the GPU drivers, just to rule them out if nothing else.

RTX 4060 Ti definitely supports that. I'd reinstall the drivers if I were you. If problem is not solved check device manager for an error code.

Make sure the GPU is connected to the Monitor and not the Motherboard.
Start with the basics.

If they had done this, they wouldn't have seen the error message.

Not surprised, like many other devs they seem to be exclusive to discord so all info is in a sand boxed part of the internet.
