Title: can't get DirectX to work
Post by: secretfj on 13 November 2004, 05:33:30

Voodoo3 3000
DirectX 9.0C
AmigaSport 3.0XP
Windows XP (w/o any Service Pack)

OpenGL is alright (CS:CZ 800X600 very smooth with MESAFX, just witout the mouse pointer)

but i can't get almost any DirectX Stuff to run (Freelancer can, but not CS:CZ in directX mode and 3DMark 2001, it just says that can't create device)

does anybody ever encountered any problem like this?
Thanks a lot!

You are not trying to run some applications in 32 bits color instead 16 bits ?
Try to change also the desktop colour depth (16bits).

Why don't you try SFFT alpha15 instead? They're way more advanced (for D3D) plus you'll have more DX8 support[:X][xx(]
