DDRAW OBJECT HAS A NON-ZERO REFERENCE COUNT - Arx Fatalis Error FIXED



Another game another obstacle! One would expect nowadays by putting old games on steam that they d spend some time to change a bit their compatibilities etc so they won't give us trouble but thats not the case. A while back i purchased through Steam the legendary Arx Fatalis and when i tried to launch it i got this error

"DDRAW OBJECT HAS A NON-ZERO REFERENCE COUNT" 


Frustration hit red as you can see, but you know what i say in ravenous times like this? The internet is your friend and indeed it is. It didnt take me much to find a really simple and fast solution to that stupid problem. Just follow the steps below and it will run like a hamster on the treamill.

- Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam

- Copy Steam.dll

- Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Arx Fatalis

- Paste Steam.dll

- Launch Arx.exe (Arx application)

- Create a new desktop shortcut (the Steam shortcut doesnt work)

Now the game is yours to play and thankful it was not a waste of money. Enjoy!
