Hi,

It could be something with the vertex format.
Try replacing the line:
pD3DDevice->DrawPrimitive(D3DPT_TRIANGLELIST,D3DVT_TLVERTEX,(LPVOID)v,3,NULL);
With:
pD3DDevice->DrawPrimitive(D3DPT_TRIANGLELIST,D3DFVF_TLVERTEX,(LPVOID)v,3,NULL);

Hi all !!

I have a big problem. After playing around with a lot of 3D Engines, I want to write my own (just for learning purposes). I want it to do in D3D Immediate Mode. I am using DirectX 6 and MSVC 6 !!
Ok, I went through a lot of tutorials and read a lot about DrawPrimitive and DirectX. Initializing is fine (I think so, I don't get errors). I simply give DrawPrimitive a simple triangle with screen coordinates, but it does not display anything. I tried to use 3D Triangles, nothing. The backbuffer is flipped, because my window gets blue (I clear the backbuffer with a blue, the window background is black).

I post my complete render and init-code, perhaps someone finds the error:
