Hello again. Sorry to be filling up the board with all of these newbie problems lately. Anyway, I'm having a very strange problem with my program. I am using bitRAKE's fpc macro, com (d3d), and local variables inside of a proc. The three of these things in one proc result in a crash. If I remove any one of them, it works again. That's not the oddest part though. If I copy and paste the function into another function, and call which ever proc is defined second, there is no problem. I've included my code if anyone could take a look at it (or even not look at it but point out possible solutions to look into). It requires some MSVC++ libraries to get d3dx to link, so not everyone will be able to build and run it. This is just baffling me to no end. :confused:
Probably somehow the stack is corrupted.
Yes, I'm doing a ret. After playing around with it more, I've also found that sometimes after I add or remove stuff (from where ever, not just the proc), things start working correctly again. Then I will add or move some more stuff and it stops.
Works great - no error. :)
What version of MASM are you using? I'm using VS.Net and fresh install of dx9sdk (retail DLLs). I just loaded the ASM file into RadASM, changed the directories, and assembled and ran it.

I'm using masm v8. I'm also using VS.Net. Does it work even if you call the other function instead of the one I have being called? I posted it calling the function defined second which always seems to work. If you call the first function instead, it should crash. Thanks for testing it out bitRAKE. :)
I'm sorry, should have noticed right away that your using an old version of the fpc macro.
; bitRAKE's Floating point constant macro
fpc MACRO val:REQ
LOCAL w,x,y,z[b][COLOR=red],dummy[/COLOR][/b]
;; split type and value, defaulting to REAL4
z INSTR 1,<&val>,<! > ;; TAB doesn't work!
IF z EQ 0
y TEXTEQU <REAL4>
x TEXTEQU <&val>
ELSE
;; REAL4 REAL8 or TBYTE
y TEXTEQU @SubStr(<&val>,1,z-1) ;; Type
x TEXTEQU @SubStr(<&val>,z+1,) ;; Value
ENDIF
;; replace . with _
z INSTR 1,x,<!.>
IF z EQ 0

ENDMAwesome. Thanks a lot for helping me out :grin:
