Question Resident Evil 8 Village uses AVX technology or not?

[HuNTeR-]

cheers to all,
Someone know to tell me if Resident Evil 8 Village uses AVX technology or not?I can't find nowhere this information on internet,even on Capcom site.
thanks,
i tried to use latest AVX emulator Sde from intel site,i add row: " C:\Program Files (x86)\Resident Evil Village\sde.exe" -cpx --"C:\Program Files (x86)\Resident Evil Village\re8.exe" and still can't start it
i have an old CPU without AVX and i'm not sure if this game used AVX or not

Click Window key + R and type CMD. [Press Enter]

Type the following:

cd /d C:\Program Files (x86)\Resident Evil Village\
[Press Enter]

Then type:

sde -ckx re8.exe
[Press Enter]

If that's too slow, you can also try:

sde -skx re8.exe
[Press Enter]

 

[HuNTeR-]

what can i do now?

 

[igor_kavinski]

Type:

sde -ckx -- re8.exe
[Press Enter]

That's a space after x then two minus symbols then space and then re8.exe

 

[HuNTeR-]

ok and now?next step to start the game?Nothing happened

 

[igor_kavinski]

You will have to check Task Manager and see if RE8.EXE appears in the list of processes. If it does, it was launched but it is so slow that it can't display anything yet. You may have to wait a lot. Otherwise, try -skx option. That might work. If that also fails, you are outta luck.

after i type all possible command in cmd,nothing happened,,the aplication re8.exe it doesn't start in task manager.So im out of luck.My CPU it doesn't work with SDE emulator from intel site.
In any case,thanks so much to trying help me

 

[igor_kavinski]

There shouldn't be a slash after re8.exe

 

[HuNTeR-]

i eliminate slash...still nothing happened

 

[igor_kavinski]

Are you sure that the file re8.exe is in that folder?

 

[HuNTeR-]

i'm not sure.I download latest emulator sde 9.14 from intel site, then i copy all sde 9.14 files in folder where Resident village were installed,then i watched this tutorial step by step....and nothing happened...
I don't know where I am wrong....i followed step by step that tutorial

then i typed how u teach me
cd /d C:\Program Files (x86)\Resident Evil Village
[Press Enter]

Then type:

sde -ckx re8.exe or sde -skx re8.exe
[Press Enter]
still nothing happened

 

[igor_kavinski]

Click Window key + R and type CMD. [Press Enter]

Instead of doing that, type cmd when you click Start menu. Then right click Command Prompt and choose Run as Administrator. Then type the other commands.

 

[HuNTeR-]

if u look closer i already run as admin all commands....

 

[igor_kavinski]

When you run it direct by double clicking, does the game give any error saying that your CPU is not supported? Maybe the game is not installed properly.

 

[HuNTeR-]

when i run directly re8.exe nothing happened,no message,nothing,i mean is loaded in task manager....and nothing happened...it stay there until tommorow and forever, doing nothing

My gpu card is an R9 Fury X.Maybe my video card is weak for this game that's why don't started?
but i don't think is this the cause....driver is up to date !!
And i have 24 GB of RAM memory in system...
i give up.....

Your GPU is actually pretty good. It's not the issue.

The issue seems to be that you are running a repacked version.

Google says, disconnect from internet, change your PC date to May 7th 2021 and then run the re8.exe without any emulator. It should work.

If not, install all the redistributable setup files in this download:

Then try once more.

 

[HuNTeR-]

i tried once more time the last solution which u suggested me,and verdict was the same......nothing happened
i change date to may 7 2021,i installed all-in-one visual C++ 2022,i restart PC...and nothing.The same behaviour.

 

[igor_kavinski]

Search the Resident Evil Village installation folder for steam_emu.ini file.

Open it with Notepad and change Language from English to Spanish. Then try double clicking re8.exe

 

[HuNTeR-]

same result...Seems this game don't like my PC

Not the game's fault. It's a repacked version you are using, which means that it's not an official version. Maybe you should try some other version.

Try Spanish with a capital S.

Also change Offline=0 to Offline=1

Ignore that. That's just a message. Doesn't mean there's a problem.

Here's a suggestion: Why don't you uninstall that completely and then BUY the game?

It's only $17: https://www.indiegala.com/store/game/resident-evil-village/1196590

Please, JUST BUY THE GAME and save yourself the misery of constantly thinking about the game. It will run fine if you activate the bought key on Steam and then launch the game from your Steam library. Cheaper than trying to upgrade your system and then finding out that the repacked version still won't run.
