I had this issue on a stream the other day but I fixed it going back to an older DxWnd profile or something (I couldn't tell you how I fixed it exactly, but I'll try and figure it out when I get home).

  • First, is your DW up-to-date to v1.04?
  • Second, are you using the older version of DxWnd I call out in the video description? The profile doesn't work with newer versions of DxWnd.
  • Third, don't have the d3d8.dll in your Dangerous Waters directory with DxWnd. It won't work with the d3d8.dll in your directory.
