DirectX problems

jlawson · 09-10-2001, 04:10 PM

All the 3D modeled characters are blank with no textures just their form in the 3D world part of the game. I have tried changing my desktop from 32bit to 16bit color to correct the problem and it seemed to work, but now the characters have textures like the skeletons in the graveyard, but the magic they throw at you is not textured or any color but blank white with no textures. It seems like textures are not loading on effects and characters all the time, but the scenery seems fine. Very weird! I switch over to software mode instead of D3D mode and of course everything returns to normal. It hates my 3D graphics card I suppose. None of my other 3D hardware based games have any problems.

Hardware config:
MSI K7 Master motherboard also referred to as the MS-6341 (AMD 761 AGP Northbridge chipset and VIA VT82C686B Southbridge chipset).
ATA-100 Western Digital 60GB 5400rpm Hard Drive (DMA mode enabled)
AMD 1.4Ghz TBird 266Mhz FSB version
512MB DDR-2100 memory
NVidia GeForce2 MX-400 64mb AGP graphics card running at 4x - Ref Detonator Drivers from NVidia v12.41.
Sound Blaster Live! Platinum
Windows 98-SE with DirectX 8.0a
Graphics aperture size in BIOS at 256MB

Anyone had this problem with textures on moving objects not loading?

The only times I had those kind of problems was when I was ATL-TABbing out of W&W. Check out the Sazerac help desk and best tips for some ideas on how to solve you problem.

Good luck and welcome to the board.
