d3d

when useing kicks.exe and doomsday...i get an arror saying...

GL_Init: Initializing Doomsday Graphics Library.
DG_Init: Direct3D 8.1.
Direct3D: Call to GetDeviceCaps failed:
D3DERR_NOTAVAILABLE
DG_Init: Failed to initialize Direct3D.

..from the console...and the thing is...i DO have d3d and it is working fine for dx8...anyone know how to bypass thios or fix it?

Have you tried running from the command line, without kicks.exe?

doomsday -file sumthing.wad -gl drd3d.dll

same error...

If that's the case, use the OpenGL renderer and pray it doesn't crash within fifteen seconds of booting up doomsday.exe....

Try reinstalling your graphics card drivers.

when i use openGL everythign is hunkydory...expt the fps is like -50

i did reinstall drivers...like....a week ago
