I have installed 3D Gamemaker Lite on my PC with the latest update for Windows XP. However the screen flashes white every few seconds on all screens through out the prgram when running making it unusable. Does anyone know how to fix this bug? I am running an Athlon 2800+ PC with Windows XP SP2 and a GeForce FX5200 graphics card.

I would just try re-installing T3DGM. I had the same kind of problem when I got mine, and that worked just fine.

I was under the impression that it wasn't compatible with XP. I remember buying it cheap in Asda on a trip back to the UK for use on my laptop.

Never got it workig properly and gave up, so good luck!

Might be wrong, but isn't that for the full version? The last time I looked there was nothing for 3D Gamemaker Lite.

May have changed then...

There is an XP patch for Lite now but the reply I have got from tech support seems to say that the 3D engine doesn't work with GeForce cards. Seems a major blow given that Nvidia rule the graphics card world! What graphics cards does any out there use and don't you find it a pain that you can't share your finished games with anyone else?

No, it's a particular GeForce model, not all of them.

Do you know which one(s) have the bug and which are ok? I don't want to buy another card and have the same problems!
