I am new to Banished modding but have been playing the game for some time. I am attempting to install and play with the mod kit (version 1.0.7.170910), but am having an issue whenever Tools-x64.exe is called. I have placed the tools in D:\BanishedKit and have copied data0.pkg, data1.pkg, patch0.pkg, and patch1.pkg to the WinData folder. I have installed and reinstalled DirectX runtimes and VS 2012 Redist. I have updated video drivers (and have no other problems with other games) and installed the francophilSans font.

I am on Windows 7 x64 and when I open a command prompt (as admin) and attempt to run the BuildResources.bat as described in the documentation, I get the following message in a dialog box:

Assert: hr == D3D_OK && _device != NULL Failed to create D3D device!

Video\VideoDevice_dx9.cpp(296)

Callstack:
VideoDX9-x64-profile.dll(0x00000000f4f57543)
Runtime-x64-profile.dll(0x00000000eb20e949)
Runtime-x64-profile.dll(0x00000000eb1e488b)
Tools-x64.exe(0x000000003f853a80)
Tools-x64.exe(0x000000003f9d47a3)
kernel32.dll(0x0000000076e3570d)
ntdll.dll(0x0000000076f9385d)

After playing around, it seems anytime Tools-x64.exe is launched it causes this message. I can run the developer Application-x64-profile.exe.

Any thoughts?

Oh, if I switch to DX11 I get this instead:

Assert: VideoDX11: Failed to create color buffer with format DXGI_FORMAT_B8G8R8A8_UNORM [116x0 2xAA]

System\Error.cpp(18)

I know the problem some setups can have.
It is probably not your graphics driver or your card.
It can manifest itself because of...? I don't know.

Here is a link to a discussion on Steam.

The solution there is the same as on Shining Rock's homepage for some similar problems

I have never heard of this problem in the modkit, but try to change the resolution.
(You can change back later. The game has to update itself).
