directX 9c March 2008

Hey guys.
VVVV seems to be a little bitchy together with the newest release of DirectX (March 08). I faced some strange behaviour like render windows which pop-up grey from the start and would not render anything. Really unreproducible stuff.

It seems that it does have something to do with the newest release of directX (March08) as it works much better since re-installing the older release (August 07).

When I’ve had renderers go funny, I’ve found that deleteing the node and recreating it can help, especially with patches that come from a pc with a different gfx card. Is this related?

False alarm.
All the weird stuff happening in vvvv seems to be related to the known problems with renderers starting-up fullscreen.
The new release of directX has nothing to do with it…

“…known problems with renderers starting-up fullscreen”…not on the primary device.

beta14 will feature a commandline-switch workaround for this. see Change Log
