Video crash question

[Boogerhead]

Up front: I really don't think Red Orchestra isn't causing these crashes. I don't know if it's the video driver itself, Windows, or DirectX, which is to say I don't know whom to blame, who to get the error messages to, or what to try to fix.

What I -really- love is when I hit "Submit bug report" it tries sending it across the Internet ... to a server called bug.report.url, which obviously doesn't exist.

Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

That error is usually the result of a bad DX 9 install. Go to the MS website and grab the latest DX 9.0c install. They release a new one every month or so.

Alternativly you can try to change the rendering patch from d3d9 to d3d or opengl in the redorchestra.ini

Thanks so much for helping with something that wasn't your guys' responsibility.

I'll keep trying to experiment. I'm still amazed that a developer would create a bug-reporting mechanism but never put in a URL.

It is part of the engine and I keep bugging ramm to fix that bit up. One of these days we will.

Ack! I thought that was a DirectX crash directly. It was easier to blame the behemothic Microsoft. You guys are smaller and have a much better excuse. =)

After one and a half years, I would have thought this would have already been fixed. Well, I would have.

Thread necromancy for no good reason is bad. Can lead to a ban.
