| I couldn't get the engine to work. I installed noor03.exe, and then tried a few of your example programs. I get the error "Object variable or With block variable not set" on the line "Engine.Engine_Init Form1, 1024, 768." The screen resolution gets changed, so the problem must be after that section of your code. |

Big Hi to everyone
It might be :
1- its Based on DX8.1 and not DX8.0
2- the sitting ( try to change the current setting ) ; i didn't write any code for finding the card Capabilities (Enumeration) becouse I am not good with hardware stuff |

Okay, I installed it, but when I tried to run the particle viewer, the graphics never showed up, just colored blocks. Tried all the renderstates too...

.com or .net (we still be the same person :) )
at least something is working
hmmmmm ,, it might be the texture ,,, try changing the texture
did you tried the Ex12 (for Particle System ) ! & it contains alot of Pre-created particles systems (ie .par files) like snow , rain , waterfall , tv , DNA , electric balss , protecter ..etc (i've done these systems while I was playing with PSC program ) ... if it works (Ex12) then the problem from the program and not the engine
Is it the only problem you have faced it ?
regrads ,,, yazeed |

| I have Directx 9b installed, so its not a DirectX version problem. I do have an old video card, so that's probably the cause because you may be using something that my card doesn't support. I tried to change the Engine.Engine_Init to something that would be compatible with my video card, but that didn't work either. |

"Color : D3DFMT_X8R8G8B8"
Maybe the problem is the graphics card doesn't support 32-bit resolution? I know mine doesn't... *sniff*. |

your countries are exporting computers (and everything  ),,, so its cheaper than our computers (or computer parts) that's for sure & you are game programmers that means a new feature every 2 year (like Pixel Shader ) ,,, how can you fallow that ? I mean if you programming engines (3D Engines you will have a lot of problems I think) ,,,
have a nice day |
