Obviously, I must of had something coded wrong. Even though Exotica
worked when I compile it with 6.1, But when I compile it with
7.0, a computer with only DirectX 6.x will get errors from Exotica.
So, yes, If I go back with DirectX6.1 and recompile Exotica with that
it "should" work with 6.x and 7.0 just fine.
I know that my off-the-shelf games that require 6.x, works fine
for with DirectX 7.0. It's all crazy, ain't it?

So, I will immediatly dive in and figure out this DirectX hazards
being cause in Exotica and hopefully will release a quick update before
I continue with anything else except I do want to add the
switching mode compatibilty which Exotica despiretly needs.

So, have you found out what that t3de bug wuz yet?
