Look up the reference for the "ID10T" error, and then you'll get the joke.

Dark Falcon:

Try this build. This is the one I use and its rock solid stable. If it crashes on your end, then its either a driver or software conflict issue. Be sure to read the readme file and make sure you have the up-to-date "SDL.dll" and "SDL_image.dll" files.

If those give your problems then I'll e-mail you the versions *I* have that I know work with D2x without a hitch.

Hmm... there is one other thing I thought of...

Which is that D2x COULD be setting the screen to an in-game resolution your video drivers don't support...

It wasn't sarcastic, whatever way you put it.

So, you're into mind-reading now? I wonder if you can get Ms Cleo's old job....

Seriously dude, yes it was sarcastic. The smiley sitting next to the comment is a rather blatant clue. If you don't find it that way, then its not my fault.

Maybe 'sarcasm' means something different in America than in Europe then.

For me, sarcasm is somewhat more refined and more ironic. I found your remark simply rude, smiley or not.

I think we've heard enough of this... it's not the topic...

Dark_Falcon,

what statements are in your d2x.ini file?

Have you already tried to do a clean reinstall of Descent 2 and then copy D2X-W32.exe, SDL.DLL and d2x.ini your Descent 2 folder?

Edit: Dark_falcon just PM'd me that a clean reinstall solved his problem with d2x.

Just a heads-up. D2x-W32 "forgets" it's brightness setting. How it happens is you go into a level, press F2, go into the control settings, then return to the level after pressing excape.
