Any ideas on what to do. I know it has something to do with d3derr. Just dont know what to do about about it

Thanks

That's the same error I get. Have you tried using Darkmatters viewer?

get xp service pack 2 then get dot net fix or w/e its called it worked for me

Do you have the latest version of Directx? Looks like you are getting that error because of your directx.

yea, i have the latest version of DirectX. I have DX10. And I dont have the XP service pack, Im running Vista.

Also i get the same error in Dark Matter

Can your computer run a 3D game? I don't mean 3D operations I mean a full scale 3D game like WoW or anything that has been made around this time. (A game can be 3D but run 2D, like Mechwarrior)

yea, im actually playing WoW right now

Edit: Its weird, I got one map to load in the BSP viewer, Coagulation, but so far thats the only map that will load.

it must be your maps try getting them off the disc if you havent already
