Showfps just Blt's (copies) the number box onto the primary (fake or real) surface, immediately after unlocking or flipping that surface. I wouldn't expect it to have the side-effect you described, unless it is related to the use of the DDBLT_WAIT flag. I would recommend you try some of the other …

FireFox ships D3DCompiler_43.dll, and D3DCompiler_47.dll I'd recommend looking for their discussion(s) around the legality of distributing. Edit: shipping D3DCompiler_47 is legit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=294840

also SDL_Delay(0) maps to Sleep(0) on windows which causes the thread to yield its remaining time slice... IMO this call should be replaced with something that just spins http://www.windowstimestamp.com/

you'd have dump the graphic file formats, I'd assume. perhaps xentax would be a good place to start.

( AFAIK the game's fullscreen code is bugged because it doesn't work correctly with IDirect3DRampDevice either... ) This game appears to have two problems with WIP9: 1. Blt and BltFast FROM the primary surface fail with E_NOTIMPL. 2. Blt's with …

MS/Opengl32.dll (x86) on Win8 still links to ddraw.dll However, I've never personally seen the recursion problem actually occur... but someone, somewhere, sometime, must have. I've used (parts of) wined3d without modification on vista, win7, and win8...

There is no reason to create a ole32 wrapper dll, etc. CoCreateInstance just calls the ddraw.dll DllGetClassObject export. IIRC, DllGetClassObject returns a IID_IClassFactory interface which is then used to create the DirectDraw Interface. This is handled in my ddraw wrapper https://github.com/aqrit …

can probably test it when D3D1 support is ready. There is no D3D1. DirectX3 was the first DirectX release in which Direct3D appeared (the one Carmack blamed so much in his open letter), DX1 and DX2 provided only DirectDraw. DX4 never existed, so the D3D order is 3, 5, 6, 7. IDirect3D --> DirectX 2 …

If a version of wine works out of the box I actually just tried WineD3D without that proxy dll, mesa opengl(llvmpipe), or hex-edits and it worked fine...
