Archive from 12_9_07 - 3ds max doesnt like directx debug drivers

Hi All,
I have discovered that 3ds max 9 doesn't like the DirectX debug drivers. it causes a strange disappearing object effect where some objects appear while others are overwritten.
I tried swapping to OpenGL and reinstalling my video drivers. Neither fixed the original problem. Although the OpenGL render was fine.

Finally tweaked that I was still using the debug version of the DirectX libs. So I cracked open dxcpl.cpl and swapped the drivers over, restarted 3dsmax and everything is now sweet. Way to waste a whole day.... bugger.

later...
