i downloaded the C3 demo and it will start up. the text in the menu and the game itself isnt visible, just black bars.
in the 2d-part of the game (it seems to be 2d (outside) and 3d (inside)) you cant see any interactive objects, such as yourself, soldiers, or turrets. 3d view works perfect apart from the black bars where there should be text.

i made a screenshot, and benchmarked with Fraps:

Frames: 7013 - Time: 286047ms - Avg: 24.516 - Min: 5 - Max: 27

this was aquired with 2xfsaa on... since i cant read the text in the menu, i dont know the resolution, but judging from the screenshot it was set at 800x600.

i tried 3DAnalyzer as well to try and fix the garbled text, but if it did anything, it made it worse... (tried several options)...

perhaps it will work with the amigamerlin 3.0 driver, cant remember if it had new directx code right now....

commandos 3 is only a demo, until the game this finishing cannot be done nothing.


try to disable "Guardband Cliiping" & change the valors of mipmaping to try it´s work fine

i tried this because someone on another forum asked if it would work... i searched some more info, and this is still a beta demo, so it is far from finished.... although the bug reports didnt include this problem, so it might be solely caused by directx 9.0 incompatibility
