When running a map in A8 free version, it builds just fine but on running, I get the following errors:
Error E2005
Can't create DirectX texture
followed by:
Malfunction W1246
DirectX driver failure: D3DERR_INVALIDCALL
The "game" window then loads as a blank blue field.
I am running DirectX 9, video in onboad 32 meg, S3 Graphics ProSavage DDR.
Is it an issue with directX or the video device? Or both? I played around a few years ago with Gamestudio a few years ago and was able to run the A5 demo just fine on a system with half the graphics capabilities as this currant machine.

No script. Was following the tutorial to refresh my memory and it said nothing about adding a script at this point

wait....in the presets list, it does list the script as "include"
Never mind, now I reaslly feel dumb, I just realized you gave me a line to INCLUDE in the script, not asking if it was "include". sorry. Include is the path of the script (which doesn't exist yet)

Ok, lets backtrack a second. Lets pretend I'm stupid (not too much of a stretch) and tell me like a 5 year old, what i need to do.

ah HA! It is my direct X version. I guess the software requires 9.0c, I'm only up to 9.0b.

OMFG! I Installed DX 9.0c and I'm STILL getting the same error message. In fact, in the view options/vidoe out settings, 9.0c doesn't even show up as an option, still the same 3 that were there before, (8a, 9a and 9b) I even did some digging and found the necessary script to add that line to....it was already added though so that isn't the issue either. Ok...I am really stuck and am on a fast track to walking away from this software and looking at other options....someone please help me figure out whats going on.

You can make a test-run with the comandlineoption -w3d
run the level and write in the line "Engine options" after -nx 30 -w3d
and click OK. its the Weak-Modus for older or incompatible videocards.
