I thought I'd ask since I now know you use d3dxfont. I made a quick test using it in roadclub from various tutorials online. When I start the game I see it for a second while it loads and then it never shows up again. I think I read somewhere that blendstates need to be handled or something. Does anyone have any experience with this? |

It sounds like your probably not handling lost / reset devices properly.
Most of the samples in the SDK are based on that DXUT stuff. In these samples you can check out how they handle lost / reset devices.

in the docs they didnt seem to tell me much but i guess i can see if anythings really off.
thanks.
btw did you see my response to your dualscreen problem in roadclub in the other thread?

thanks. yeah thats exactly what I suspect so I thought you may have some code handy.. i know I read somewhere that that could be a problem.

found the problem. i just
found the problem. i just got lost in old code. it seems it will be too much work to convert the current font. we'll have to wait for bigger demand to fix the resolution issue. we'll concentrate on getting the task switching and dual screen handling to work better instead.
