DarkBASIC Professional Discussion / some of the games from the Showcase don't work for me...

This is not a DBPro-specific problem, but I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem as me... I've downloaded and tried every game in the Showcase (DBC and DBP) and although most of them work fine, a few games don't at all. Namely "Creative Racing", "Skyline Riders", and a few games I've found on the forums. The games all exhibit similar-behavior: the game is playing but I can't see most of the objects in the game. Usually I can see one or two random objects (like another car, etc) but the entire ground/skysphere is missing.

Anyone else have this problem? Just wondering.

P.S. my video card is a NVIDIA GeForce4 ti4200, I'm running a dual-monitor setup, I suppose that could be a factor.

Most likely the dual monitor thing, I don't think DX likes dual monitors outside a windowed environment - have you tried a windowed mode game?

yeah, now that you mention it... the games that run in full-screen exclusive mode seem to have more problems... I'll try disabling my second monitor, see if that clears up the problem.

thanx-
