Unfortunately, there is no version of dgVoodoo2 that is compartible with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 under Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 or 11.
I've tried all of them - none working. Despite this graphics chip is DirectX 11 compartible.
It seems that the error is in here: "Cannot query supported resolutions on display output 0, list is empty.", according to debug logs.
Please, fix this issue.

Have you tried Feature Level 10.0?

Yes. All the same. Not working.

At the point where the error message is dumped, D3D backend is initialized so it's not related to unsupported hardware or feature level.

- Does dgVoodooCPL show the resolution list as expected?
- Didn't you accidentally disable all resolution by setting option DirectXExt\DefaultEnumeratedResolutions to 'none' without defining any extra enumerated resolution?

Yes, dgVoodooCPL shows the resolution list.

No, I didn't do anything like that.

Could you attach the config file?
Also, is this the only game with this problem?

The first debug log contains this string
7 0.017579 13308 Porsche.exe [dgVoodoo] INFO: Device 0: Name: "AMD Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Seri\\.\DISPLAY1", Description: "\\.\DISPLAY1", Monitor rect: (0, 0, 1600, 900), GUID = {67685559-3106-11d0-b971-00aa00342f9f}, system primary monitor

But the system name of the video adapter is AMD Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series.
Could this be a problem ?

Yes, of course. Here it is:

No, dgVoodoo2 is not working at all, not only with these games.

I was wrong. dgVoodooCPL doesn't show the resolution list.

Dear Dege, could you please give me some advice how to solve this problem ?

The phenomenon is like if you hadn't any display attached to the adapter output which is of course nonsense, the primary display is listed in the log. But honestly, that's the only case giving an empty resolution list.
What adapters do you have in the CPL 'adapters to use/enable' list? Also, if you select them one-by-one, do you get any display output (other than 'Default') in the 'full screen output' drop-down list?

Under "Adapter(s) to use / enable" I have the following options:
All of them
AMD Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series
Microsoft Basic Render Driver

If "Microsoft Basic Render Driver" is selected, I get only "Default" option, which, I think, is normal.
If I select "All of them" or "AMD Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series", regardless of "Output API" selection, I get "Default" and "\\.\DISPLAY1" in the "Full Screen Output" drop-down list.
Unfortunately, none of them gives any resolution options in "Resolution" drop-down list under "DirectX" tab 🙁

Then plz download run DX Caps Viewer to see what outputs, resolutions and pixel formats it lists for the DXGI devices:

https://github.com/microsoft/DxCapsViewer/releases

Maybe the pixel format dgv is looking for (DXGI_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM) is missing, or sg like that.

You should see sg like this:

DX Caps Viewer doesn't show any resolutions or pixel formats in DXGI section:

There are resolutions in Direct3D9 Devices:

Then it must be something wrong at driver level. It can't enumerate the supported resolutions through DXGI for some reason.
Maybe the problem is Win11 itself. I don't know if AMD mobility radeon HD 5000 has dedicated Win11 drivers (I couldn't find one), and the Win10 driver might not be fully compatible with Win11.

As to what I use, HD 5000 series is long unsupported and no drivers exist for Win11. Driver support probably ended in 2016

@esasoft there is a modded driver package available on techpowerup. If you can take the risk, maybe that driver for Windows 10 may give resolutions under Windows 11

I've found this package and installed it (previous driver was deleted by DDU). Driver version is the most recent available, 23.20.15033.5003 from 05/01/2022.
Unfortunately, still the same - not working. DX Caps Viewer still doesn't show any resolutions or pixel formats in DXGI 🙁

DirectX 11 games are working, but they cannot see resolutions too and will run in a window.
If the game configuration file can be modified to use certain display resolution, then game will run in a window which size is equal to that resolution.
