Hey, I've got a problem with dbLine(), its a weird one though, say for example I make three calls to the function creating three separate lines on the screen, only the first and third lines will appear when I run the program, the second line does not. I could create many lines but only the first call to dbLine() and the last call will appear on the screen and all calls in-between will not.

+ Code Snippet

#include "DarkGDK.h"

void DarkGDK ( void )
{
	dbSyncOn   ( );
	dbSyncRate ( 60 );

	while ( LoopGDK ( ) )
	{
		dbLine(50,50,200,50); //this lines is created
		dbLine(100,100,400,100); //this line does not appear
		dbLine(150,150,600,150); //this lines is created
		dbSync ( );
	}
	return;
}

I am running windows vista with an NVIDIA video card with the drivers fully updated and I believe I am using the latest version of the DarkGDK.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

The 2D drawing commands have issues with Nvidia cards, look here for some fixes: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=188703&b=22&msg=2250871#m2250871

Thanks but the problem is that I have already been to all the forum posts I could find and tried many things to solve this issue before I started this thread including the link that you posted. I have ensured that my drivers are updated as well as DarkGDK. My DirectX version is DirectX 11, I'm not sure whether I should try using DirectX 10 or something ?

Thanks
