Problems with TechDemo.

Hi.

I have some problems with TechDemo.

1º - In OpenGL and FullScreen i see all the screen blurred. It is rare becouse when i compile the other projects (tutorials) in OpenGL all is OK and very good.

For that only problem and for try to continue lerning how this engine works, i have tryed to recompile this project, but i have some inconvenient.

1º - The first time when i compile this project and i try to ejecute this, it open a console and close this very fast and make a file called foo, that is zipped and have a text file inside than says "hello hello !"

i resolved this rare problem changing the main function from WinMain to int Main().

2º - I have removed all sounds becouse i want to change the API that it uses. Ok, it isnt a problem

3º - When i recompile and try to ejecute again, this works, at least the MainMenu, but when i go to start the game and change the video mode to:

OPENGL : The screen is very Very VERY blurred and in a second i get an error of the application (Windows XP), this error close the game but the screen continues very Very VERY blurred and i have to reset the PC.

Directx8 : I get an error instantly than i press "start". But in the precompiled TechDemo than irrlicht have in the bin directory, this work fine.
I know that is becouse i compile with Dev-C++ but there is no way to fix that ??

thanks.

OK, i have fixed the OPENGL very Very VERY Blurred to Blurred but in Windows Mode it works fine.

I get to know that the problem with DirectX8 is fixed in irrlicht 0.4.1 and i have update the source to irrlicht 0.4.2, i have changed the Device types to EDT_ and actualized the library of irrlicht.dll. I can compile without errors but when i open the techdemo and i select any driver, always i get an error.

thanks
