d3d9.dll crash, help?

[Guest]

Can't figure out why my game constantly crashes now with a d3d9.dll error. All my drivers are up to date, I've tried rebuilding the fs9.cfg file, dx is installed correctly. I thought I did a good job of going through and getting rid of bad or duplicate afcads, bad textures in aircraft, etc.Can anyone help me get rid of this annoying crash? I can't fly for longer than 2 hours now, this is ridiculousThanks

Did you apply that ATI fix for shimmering? I think that's where I recognize that file from. Anyway, try removing that from your main FS directory. That file did strange things to my system as well.Tim

I was using that, but I am not now, and I still get the crashesThanks for the suggestion though

Alex, you might have remnants of that shimmering fix since that is the DLL from that package. There was a config file as well as the DLL, might want to double check to see if it is still there.I removed mine after reading that it wasn't a good thing to have from the MS team on their blogs.Regards, MichaelKDFWhttp://www.calvirair.com/mcpics/mcdcvabanner.jpgCalVirAir International

so tell them to work with ATI to get better drivers so we don't have to stand this stupid shimmering.I think that they were insulted some programmer figured out in a few days how to fix something they haven't been able toThanks for the suggestions but I removed those files before
