Problem #1- For some reason, the command "hide mouse" doesn't work. I haven't used DB in a while, but I'm petty sure that if it worked before it should work now.

Problem #2- Whenever I use my created matrix made in MatEdit, whenever I move it appears as if part of the matrix is disappearing, but on a small scale. It looks like Polygons are constantly disapearing and reappearing, and it is EXTREMLY noticable and ugly.

Problem #3- Also a problem with the matrix. When I walk onto a tile that I have set to impassable terrain, it allows me to walkon it. the weird thing is, however, is that this used to work PERFECTLY, and I couldn't walk onto those tiles, but now I can.

Problem #1 and #3 are ones that have just started happening recently, and I'm not sure why.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as I've had a bad day and this would help to make it a little better before I head off to bed.

*Edit*

New problem, and this one is BIG! Whenever I try to run, through the editro for testing or even through an EXE, All I see is the mouse pointer, and the rest of the screen is black. Even when I try and move the mouse (which SHOULD be hidden) it is VERY choppy and VERY slow.

Please help.

u all patched up? You should be on 1.13 for DB, or Patch 5.1b for Pro. You need to do this before delving into your other problems.

Also update your DirectX and all your drivers if possible

I have the latest update for DBC (that's what I'm using) and I have the latest DirectX drivers.

Could it be something with DX9?

Well, try this code:



That works fine for me, it hides themouse and shows it. I have DBC v1.13 Enhanced, and WinXP with DirectX 9.1.

Hope I Helped...

Is there a sync on : sync rate whatever and a sync command in there?

so does it sync after every loop? Ive noticed the mouse will either move REALLY choppy and slow, or not move at all, without the sync.

Thing is, the screen went completly black, and mouse hardly moving at all, and yes, the sync command is in there.

Although it's weird, the black screen problem just suddenly disappeared, although the othere problems are still there. And also, I know how to hide the mosue, the command is there, but it's just not going away...
