I use 64 bit how do you change it to 32 bit. When I played diablo I could change it to 32 bit but see no where possible I can for this game.


If you're using the standalone client, launching the game with the Client.exe or PathofExile.exe will use 32bit.
If you're using Steam, there should be a window that prompts you to choose which one you'd like to use.

I tried to use standalone client won't work as it is all black.
Man the game is working very well ...You Should see that blackness ... thats the new league THE BLACK LEAGUE.. actualy you dint get the whole concept there .... the new BLACK LEAGUE ...you have to kill all monsters into that blackness without seeing them .. the game went to the next level of difficulty.. Plus that now you dont hurt your eyes . everything is black it is so relaxing ..COOL things ..

and of course now you can vendor items more easy ... into that blackness if you cant aim for the ventor while you are moving arround the ventor goes everywhere cause the graphics dose not work properly , so actualy you are seeing his name everywhere on your screen .... easy to click now to his name and vendor items ... amaizing patch, speecless.... think possitive !!
lol
I've gotten tired of just waiting.

Time to start theorizing.

We've been stuck with this bug for quite some time now with very little information coming out about the cause and fix. Or even whether there will be a fix. If it were something they had well in hand, they'd have at least told us by now, wouldn't they? So here's my theory. The problem probably originates from using D3D extensions in the new DX9 client that older video cards flat out can't support at all due to hardware limitations. That by itself shouldn't be a big deal - you just find and revert the change using the versioning repository any code project of this size uses. After all, a very wide variety of hardware, both ATI and Intel, is affected, so finding hardware to test on can't really be the problem here.

Then what IS making it a big deal?

Cloaks.

My bet is that cloaks as currently implemented require one of the extensions they started using which older cards can't support. And that's where things can get understandably sticky. It's very possible cloaks and cloth physics cannot be implemented on the older cards with any sort of realistic framerate. However, they've already sold supporter packs using this tech, so they can't really drop them now. They also habitually hate having things look substantially different by video card, so they're probably also hesitant to just have cloaks not render on old cards - they may not have a choice, though, other than dropping support for the older cards entirely, which would alienate every user currently affected by this issue. So my guess is they're desperately trying to come up with some kind of alternative, but I'm betting they're not going to find one that doesn't ravage frame-rate on old cards when the cloth physics rendering is in use.

And, well. That worries me regarding the future of the game, especially considering their track record on unusable framerates with, for instance, Malachai. I'd kind of like to buy some stash tabs this weekend, but not with this issue still unfixed...

I doubt I'm alone.

Please, GGG, give us some updates on progress here.

I'd particularly like to know whether -nodx9ex is intended to download 7.8GB or not.
People who don't like the Labyrinth are not a minority: Be heard - say you don't like it in your signature. Don't leave complaining about lab to others - GGG needs to see how many people dislike it. Ascendancy must be gated on true ARPG content, not a poorly-crafted internet Legend of Zelda wannabe.
Cyber monday soon boys , time to open yo wallets.
i highly Doubt if they are reading our messages ...
