I don't even know WHAT d3dim.dll is :-) What does it contain for API ? I know about D3DRM.DLL (that won't be supported) for the 'retained mode' API but I thought that all 'immediate mode' API was in ddraw.dll and not in a separate library. Why not first test with an empty DLL with just the version ressources in it and see if it's enough ? Lionel -- Lionel Ulmer - http://www.bbrox.org/
