Sorry for the late answer. So, it's an app using ddraw + d3d9 together? Shouldn't be a problem, but what if you remove dg d3d9 and let it load the system one? Its ok. I anyway switched my attention to another application. Its Direct3D 7 app, but i used dgVoodoo in conjunction with DxWnd (thats the …

Yes, I know. That app fumbles directly for data in DDraw objects, at binary level. So it's not complatible with dgVoodoo. I didn't want to have binary layout compatibility with MS ddraw just because of this app. I see. That code is the shader compiler thread(s) which aren't utilized starting from …

My "adventures" continues. Now i got constant crashes. This looks like some memory corruption or double free (possible at thread exit). Seems offending thread was spawned by dgVoodoo (or, possible, in d3d11 runtime?). The call stack is strange (possibly wrong): ntdll._RtlpFreeHeapInternal@20+D7 …

Are you sure? That's a perfectly valid cap flag combination, describing a primary surface. I gave it a go in my test app Confirmed - the root of the problem is in the dxwnd. It replaces some parameters later and then call dgVoodoo.

A backend object containing D3D11 impl couldn't be created. I think you should enable the D3D11 debug layer (part of the Win SDK) to find out more about that. I see. The problem here is this error is floating and not 100% reproducible. Are you sure? That's a perfectly valid cap flag combination, …

The game you're debugging is probably kind of badly coded. Its terribly coded. Mix of win32 and mfc in one application (3 windows - 2 mfc+1 win32, win32 for rendering, one of the mfc transparent for input reading) some hardcoded stuff (as you already noticed). Anyway, I changed the first 2 of my …

In addition. One more small feature request. Is it possible to have in "debug build" of dgVoodoo more detailed output for Create* functions. For example: [dgVoodoo] ERROR: DirectDraw (0B89E4C0)::CreateSurface: creating surface has failed, DDERR_INVALIDCAPS Its really would be nice to have some …

I am using latest build (atm 2.62.1) to debug a D3D7 application. It calls DirectDrawCreateEx twice. First time it use NULL as a first parameter (GUID*) and its fine. But next time it calls method with wierd {67685559-3106-11d0-b971-00aa00342f9f}. This cause dgVoodoo to fail with error: [dgVoodoo] …

Yep there's a lot of post-2001 3D going on here and how OpenGL is implemented in many newer games that don't care for redirecting to any other ICDs than OPENGL32.DLL. Just a small note. Opengl32.dll itself is not an ICD driver. It contains software OpenGL (1.1 or something like that) implementation …

However those game series have one problems that seem to be unresolvabe to me for the time being: additional windows on top of the rendering window. Nice to hear that. Yeah, that wierd thing with two …
