Re: WoW unable to start up 3D Acceleration

Not sure why only one account was having this problem after so long, but finally figured it out. Found this line in the config-toonname-realm.wtf file. Hope this helps someone else out.

SET gxApi "D3D11"

I changed it to 9 and it works fine now.

SET gxApi "D3D9"

For anyone who stumbles upon this in the future...

You can already change the API that the game uses in the advanced section of the video settings, and Inner Space (assuming you let it create game profiles for you) also has a specific profile for WoW that forces DX9.
