I am glad you found the problem and I am waiting for the next beta release.

This does not clear the question however...how did you get CT 2.9 and 3.0 beta 1 to start on a real XP machine when all of us couldn't ?

You must have done or installed something extra in your XP testing machines other than the DirectX End User runtime you told us because CT >= 2.90 apparently doesn't work in none of our true XP machines.

Sir
we have 5 old computers in our lab with WinXP+SP3
I don't know the OS setup history of these systems.
We make all CT tests for XP, on these systems.

Please, don't forget PilotLogic is a "small" software house
with about 23 computers and 15 people (10 crazy programmers) for now...
"Small Budget Schema".

But, I give you my promise for better "Commercial Level" tests and support for WinXP OS

Thanks you, sternas, for your answers
But again, may we ask a list of installed software/updates (if any) on the one of those machines and some other info? You may not know the history but you may obtain current status of the OSes - and that we are asking for
You may have full config info in no time using pc-wizard - it's absolutely free (not an ads).

Thanks for all that you've done and doing right now!

Some more of the strange things:
I've installed CT 3.0 under win XP (home, sp2, just installed it + directx june2010) running in the virtual box. Virtual box is installed in win xp sp3 (the very same home edition, cause the guest and the host systems are fom the same disk).

Then I copied compiled CT from guest to host and got the same d3d9.dll error as in the 2.9 version...
For some strange reason I can't compile 3.0 under my host system even after cleaning %PATH% and uninstalling various software (dev-c++, ds gamemaker, cygwin, GNU win package etc.)...
So my point is CT need some other way to check OS's librares and it's capabilities. I mean, some time ago one could successfully compile CT under guest and then copy it to the host. And now one can't.

Oh, this is just my thoughts, if problems with d3d9.dll allready solved, then ignore them

Yes Sir
WinXP problem with DirectX, solved

It will be Beta 2 or a 3.1?

Cheers,
Miquel.

Sir,
we prepare CT Ver 3.00 beta2

Hi

I am running:
1. A KVM virtual machine under Linux without 3D hardware acceleration (there is no drivers available at this stage).
2. Windows XP installed from a XP CD with service pack 2 and then applied service pack 3.
3. I disabled updates to the operating system.

I have installed CodeTyphonIns.2.90 and it is running without problems.

It seems as if I would not be able to run CodeTyphonInsb3.0.1 because it depends on 3D hardware acceleration?
Would the next release of CodeTyphon be dependent on 3D hardware acceleration or would it only be an option?

Thank's
Pierre

It is possible to install CT 3.0 in a virtual machine, although REAL OS on a real HW wouldn't let you to do this

Guys
we solve REAL XP OS Direct X problems
please test CodeTyphon 3.0 and report here

All working on my XPSP3 at work, a big thanks you from me.

Tested at home XP.

Solved!

Cheers,
Miquel.

Thanks Sir
