'failed to start direct 3d'
A required .DLL file, D3D8.DLL, was not found.
If you're getting this error dialog, then you haven't got Microsoft DirectX 8 installed on your machine.
Do you have DirectX8 installed on your computer?
The demo WASN'T supplied with DX8. The game WAS suplied with DX8.
You can download DX8 from
http://www.microsoft.com
directX8.1?
The 'failed to start Direct3D' message could be because the demo is looking for the DirectX8.1 runtime.
The demo (note, not the full game) was built using this
- a beta version of DX8.1 has been available to developers for some time.
