Hello! i have sold my primary pc, and want to play the GORGEOUS update, so i installed steam on my htpc.
Started natural selection 2, menu is ok, but when join a game, i got a lot of these
Error: IDirect3DDevice9::CreateTexture(256x512, 10, D3DFMT_DXT5) failed (Out of video memory)
and game close.

But i have one AMD hd6950 with 2gb of gddr5 and 4gb ram on pc
i have followed the steps, with no luck.


Game not loading issues or crashes on connect:
Run dxsetup in drive\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Natural Selection 2\redist\directx\
Delete the folder drive\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Natural Selection 2\ns2\shaders
Press the Windows key and R (Win+R) (No Windows key? Try this) and type %APPDATA%\Natural Selection 2 then press enter.
Delete all the files in this folder
Verify the Integrity of the NS2 Game Cache:
In Steam, go to the Natural Selection 2 menu option, Right-click>Properties>Local Files>Verify Integrity of Cache
(this will re-download the files you deleted, but it will be the correct files this time)
Disable all mods or even unsubscribe from them in Workshop
If all else fails, delete local Steam files for NS2 and reinstall NS2.
Crash on startup? Disable any overlay applications that might interfere such as mumble, fraps and GPU tweakers Source
Lower texture quality in NS2, this *may* allow you to get through pre-cache

Any Ideas?
thanks!
