| Does blitz plus suffer from the same problem as blitz2d with regard to the new nvidia driver/direct x/whatever issue as mentioned in this thread: http://www.blitzbasic.com/bbs/posts.php?topic=21020 Id happily buy blitz plus and convert the games across if it would solve this problem. |

| once the software rendering is introduced this should NOT be a problem if you use software rendering. |

| ANY product which uses the DirectDraw component of DirectX7- is affected by this nVidia bug. So yes, BlitzPlus is currently affected, however with the next update it will gain software rendering and preliminary OpenGL support, which will be coming in a couple/few weeks. Which is bloody good news for -everyone- =] |

| ANY product which uses the DirectDraw component of DirectX7- is affected by this nVidia bug. I thought blitz+ used direct x 1 or something. Is that also affected? |

| Yes. DirectDraw is what gave birth to DirectX ;] It exists in DirectX1 to 7, but was scrapped for DirectGraphics in DirectX8. |
