Serious Bug?
« on: December 05, 2003, 06:06:16 PM »

Yeah, well, I upgraded to 037, and now when I run my project, I get massive bands (like, 30-80% of the screen in thickness, height-wise) of pink flashing rapidly in a vertical pattern across the screen!

I tried turning off hardware acceleration, and the only difference is the bands turned black. I tried using Window mode, and with Hardware Acceleration on, it renders OK until I move the window, at which point the whole screen goes either green or pink for a few moments. The only way it works at all seems to be in Window mode with Hardware Acceleration turned Off.

What on Earth!? HELP! I am dead in the water until this is fixed! Whats more I'm worried about possible damage to my video card or monitor, it looks horribly unhealthy.

There were no changes in the renderer in the last build. Did you do some other changes to your configuration? Hardware, drivers, DirectX etc. Other Direct3D applications work ok?

Right after posting that I checked DXDIAG, and noticed it said that some of my files were debug versions. I installed the DirectX SDK earlier this week, and I guess I chose the Debug version of the runtime or something. I reinstalled the retail version of the DirectX Runtime, and now things seem to be working better. I apologize for jumping the gun!

I still have some oddities in my DXDIAG list, and a few things seem a bit slower than they should be. But thats obviously not your problem -- WME is apparently not at fault for any of it.

Again, sorry for jumping to conclusions! I should know better.
