Hmmm. PyroBoy (0 replies, 0 views) (2000-Aug-24) Tried. I can't get the reference drivers going. IID_IDirect3DRefDevice is undefined apperantly...
In any case, say I do get it running on the ref drivers and it works. What then? Run the bloody game on ref drivers? Not likely!
If this problem really is related to card drivers in any way, I think I've got a MAJOR misconception about how D3D works under the hood... I was under the impression that software T&L is performed in the D3D dll and the hardware drivers just provide access to the hardware (as drivers tend to do)... If the video card drivers handle CPU transformation, lighting and access to hardware rasterizing on HAL hardware, just what the hell does d3dim700.dll do?? |
