Sounds like a stack overflow during rendering.

It happens when either:

- - you did not have enough stack space

- - your renderer ran out of internal stack space.

FYI - ask the company who made the renderer to increase the "stack space"

(yeah, right...)

Subject: [delphi-3d] Finding OpenGL Game Development list.

A little while ago, I found a mailing list for OpenGL game development =

and signed up. About that time, I blew out my hard disk and lost all my =

old mail AND so did the list server.

As a result, I was dropped from the list and "sniff" can't find it =

again. Can anyone point me to it?

Subject: [delphi-3d] Win95 taskbar application

Hi, there

My application needs to start up as a small icon showed on the Win95

taskbar just near Clock area. It's just like Win95's System Agent, Dial-up

network modems status, etc.

I can't figure out how to do this, much appreciated anybody's help!

Thanks in advance.

Subject: [delphi-3d] DirectDraw and Components?

I'm trying to create a TWinControl derived component that uses DirectDraw Surfaces. When I try to install the component (package) I get an Initialization error from DDraw.dll. Now what initialization happens when Delphi loads the DLL that could fail?
