Sorry your browser is not supported!

I've installed all the compiler updates. I'm pretty sure i have the newest version of direct x. I've read other posts about patch 5. i've even manually unzipped the upgrade and placed the files in their folders, and yet patch 5 just won't work. When i would run the upgrader it would unzip all the files and then just close without doing anything else. help will be rewarded! (with what i dont know)

See another version of this problem in the bugs section.


Thats not really good enough - you have to know whether you do or not.

Yep, also DX9 isn't good enough either. You need DX9b

putting the files in their folder won't help since there is a compiler upgrade within too

the updater is worthless. i can't get it to do anything either. sadly you have to manually extract and place all the files.

i couldn't get P5 to work either, until tonight indi suggested that i reinstall DBP and use the patch. that worked. just copy all your projects and stuff into a temporary folder, and delete the DBP folder. reinstall DBP, then the patch. copy your projects back in.

and like they said, make sure you have 9b go to start>run, type DXDIAG, and run it. at the bottom it should say "DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0b". if not, update it!

1) Make sure that you are running DirectX 9.0b and nothing earlier. You can check this by running dxdiag.exe from your START->RUN menu.

2) Make sure that you have downloaded and installed the latest drivers for your video card. If you have an Nvidia video card, go to www.nvidia.com, if you have an ATI videocard, go to www.ati.com and install the very LATEST drivers that they have on their website.

3) Make sure that you uninstall DBPro and reinstall it from CD or upgrade from 4.1 or earlier of DBPro. DO NOT UPGRADE to UPGRADE 5 RELEASED VERSION FROM A BETA OF UPGRADE 5 THAT YOU INSTALLED PREVIOUSLY.

4) Nvidia Geforce 4 MX DOES NOT SUPPORT SHADERS, so you won't see any if you use this video card.

5) If you did a reinstall from the ground up of DBPro and did all of the above, then you might have a bug in your code and if you don't then its a bug in DBPro.

If you you did all five things and know its a bug in DBPro, please send the folowing to [email protected]

1) List in detail your System configuration (video card, video card driver version, processor, memory, hard drive space, Operating system, etc..).

2) Send some code with media that you are using thats causing the problem.

3) Take screenshots of what you are seeing (use print screen to take screenshots and paste it into MSPAINT.

4) Explain in detail what the problem is and try to get down to the point of what works and what doesnt.
