[OT] QD3D not returning a Renderer Object

[Tom S. <to...@as...>]

Hi,

Apologies that this is not a Quesa question, but relating to QD3D.DLL running under Windows 98. I hope this is OK, I thought people
on this list might know.

The problem is a strange one:

Q3Renderer_NewFromType(kQ3RendererTypeInteractive) always returns 0 if the app was run from the Shortcut in the start bar, (as
installed from .msi file). Obviously this causes the app not to work.

However, all works fine if the app icon was double-clicked.

Running the app with Quesa returns the Renderer Object correctly in all cases, but due to other unresolved problems this particular
app has with Quesa on Win98. I am currently having to explore this route.

The same app works no problem on WinXP (Quesa or QD3D), MacOS 9 and X. It just seems to dislike Win98 for some reason.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Tom
