Title: Max problems Post by: dave-s on May 01, 2003, 07:12:13 pm Has anyone had this problem before?
interactive 3D renderer initialization failed please check your device sttings using the -H command line option The instruction at "0x00000190" referenced memory at "0x00000190" The memory could not be "read" Problem started after I originaly reinstalled it and changed the renderer settings. Now even after to uninstalls and reinstalls it does the same. Cant understand how to open max to re select the corect renderer?

Maybe changing the setting exposed it, at least that's what it looks like from here.

Thanks Title: Re:Max problems Post by: dave-s on May 03, 2003, 11:38:38 am OK tried all 3 sticks of memory and even removed and reinstalled the video card, same problem. Ive reinstalled Max a number of times. W2K must remember some settings even after deleting a prog, short of wiping and reinstalling windows I dont know what to do.
Title: Re:Max problems Post by: dave-s on May 05, 2003, 09:33:22 pm Got it sorted had to run this
C:\3DSMAX3\3dsmax.exe -H to get the renderer settings, not sure if its running as well though? Title: Re:Max problems Post by: Cocobolo on May 07, 2003, 11:29:50 pm I didn't (luckily) have to do any additional configuration, and am running win2K now, although most DTD mods came out of win98 (gulp) in 3DS max3. Crashed 3 times in one year so I had to switch.

Ive not tried GR in W2k yet so cant say if Ive noticed any difference, I cant play the Raven Shield single palyer demo though, doesnt recognise my TNT2 card :( Looks like it will be another 12 months before I can upgrade :( |
