ArcadeVGA card and Direct 3D
(1/3) > >>
Sharkfin:
Is there an issue with Ultimarc's arcadeVGA card and directx 9.0c. My Direct X panel reports that the following (3 items) are not running and certain emulators that require Direct 3D won't run:

directdraw acceleration
direct 3d acceleration
agp texture acceleration

Should I go back to directX 8 and if so does anyone know of a download anywhere.
Scanner:
I am experiencing the same error.  Virtuanes and FCEU_NES won't run full screen.  I get "DirectDraw: Error Setting Display Mode".  If someone know's what's up please let me know.
Troz:
Add me to the list with the same problem as well.  Just noticed it last night and was just going to post here about it.  I have the newer 9200 card.
Troz:
Small update...

I had some free time so I whipped up a fresh XP installation, no service packs, default directx 8.1... Same problem, "DirectDraw: Error Setting Display Mode" so downgrading your directx will not make a difference.  I'm going to fire off an email to Andy to see if this is something he can help us with.
Space Fractal:
I have no problemo at all, did you installed the ArcadeVGA drivers from the ultimarc CD?

ArcadeVGA (old version, wich I have) 7200 does NOT support 320x240, but 321x240. This can cause some problems in some emulators.

You may have the graphic accelerator set to minimum, that have disabled DirectX 3D.
