I've been cursing and swearing at DB Pro for the past half hour. Added a few lines of code to delete objects, and the whole thing went Pete Tong.

Reboot...all is fine again! Turns out, Theme Park screws up my DirectX.

Theme Park / DB....DB / Theme Park...adios Theme Park!

I have to do my design in seperate 'runs' as I do my gaming. Half of the games I have, DOS or not, screw up something critical in using DBP. Many screw up others too. Some don't run or just screw up anyways.

I hate my...

Well I've replaced the sound card, video card, and RAM myself....

Uh, I hate my motherboard.

Over and out.

I had this problem, but came apon a solution..sort of.

Get yourself a cheap video capture card, get yourself a cheap games console (Gamecube+3 new games+4 old Zeldas=£99), and run the games console though your Video capture window

I now play games all the time when doing DB or 3DS Max work without any problems. In fact, for 3DS Max its particularly good, as the capture software hardly effects rendering time at all.

Yeah, that's if you even WANT stinky console games with their ugly resolutions, low detail textures and clunky controllers! Pah, PC for me .

Good idea tho .
