When I attempt to start my arma 3 game off the client, I click play and I am met by this error message. http://gyazo.com/6c171867eb11c85eb99b138297dbe0af . I am launching the game in dev mod as it wont work in normal mode. I have tried downloading direct X11 off the Microsoft website many times, I have tried validating the cache a lot as well. I even deleted the D11 files out my Arma 3 folder and then validated again, it didn't work. I also reinstalled the game twice, still broken.

Hello,
Could you give us your last rpt- file? (users\username\AppData\Local\Arma 3).
It seems that your error comes from DirectX. Try to reinstall it via:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\_CommonRedist\DirectX\Jun2010.
You just have to start DXSETUP.exe and to follow the installation instructions.
Have you already tried to start the game by not passing through the Arma3 luncher? (i.e. without Steam)
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3 => arma3.exe
François.

As hit001 suggested try starting the game without launcher. This can be done by either navigating into your Arma 3 folder and launching arma3.exe or starting Arma 3 from steam with parameter -nolauncher. You can set parameter for the game by right clicking Arma 3 in your library. Selecting properties and clicking set launch options from the general tab. Thank you.

Hi sorry for the late reply, I did try this before and it does not work. I am also running the game in 'dev mode' This didn't work aswell. I did the -nolauncher in both dev and normal mode, again no result unfortunately.
