Cannot initialize 3d engine

Silent Hunter III

Thank you! This helped me get the game running. I didn’t have any luck using the custom DirectX9 DLL suggested in other posts. Here is a restatement of Liderc’s instructions:

1. Change the Windows desktop resolution to 1024×768
2. Run SH3.exe to start the game
3. In the video setting menu, uncheck the full screen option
4. Save your game settings and exit the game
5. Return your Windows desktop resolution to its normal value
6. Re-run the game and it will appear in a 1024×768 window

When i got it running in window mode, like is discribed above. I checked the full screen option again, saved it, exited the game, started it up again. And now it’s running fine on fullscreen with a 1920×1080 desktop resolution.

this worked for me win7 64 bit, 2 screens

Aside from the fix posted here, is there any other work around this problem?

My native resolution is 1920×1200, has anyone got it to run at this res without the tiny window?

I confirm it works well : change desktop res to 1024×768. Start the game and follow all the procedure described upper.
While the game runs correctly in window mode, check full screen again and quit/relaunch.
It works for me in full screen with 1920×1080 wide screen
Platform info : Windows 7 64 bits Pro. NVidia GTX 560 Ti, DirectX 11

Thanks to all helpers for the tips. You’ve saved me !

This solution didn’t work for me :c

I have a Windows 8 computer, and changing the screen resolution didn’t help! It still comes up with the same error, PLEASE HELP ME!

The problem on the Chessmaster 10th Cannot initialize 3D engine is that the game support only 1024×768 on screen resolution. Do that and works fine. Peace for all.

"Cannot initialize 3D engine" that’s what I read every time I try to play Chessmaster. I tried with 1024×768 screen resolution, however the game still doesn’t work.

If the sphere of diameter decrease by 25% then what would be curved surface area after decrease?

Initial dia. = d
Initial r = d/2
Initial S.A. = 4*Pi*(d^2)/4

New dia. = d-(25% of d)
= d-(d/4) = 3d/4

Thus, New S.A. = 4*Pi*(9d^2)/64

Now %age increase = [ (New S.A.)/(Initial S.A.) ] * 100
= (9/64) * 4 * 100
= 56.25 %

So, %age decrease = 100 — 56.25 = 43.75 %

Thus, the answer is (A).

How to adjust for best picture a Sharp Aquos Quattron 3D LED LCD 52 inch tv. I’m having problem maintaining perferred brightness. Also when initial turn on the screen goes to channel then shuts down and.

This sounds like a setting that can be adjusted. What I like about some of the Sharp televisions is the av mode setting (preset brightness/contrast adjustments). I am not looking at the manual for this model so I’m not sure if this is an option on this television. However with this being a high end aquos model there is free assistance available to you. You can register your television at aquos advantage and chat live with an aquos advisor at Sharp’s Midwest Corporate Headquarters. The agent may advise you to call in if your television need and Industry Initialization because you have to be talked through it. I advise the chat reps initially because when you call you aren’t able to speak with the Midwest Corporate Sharp reps unless your call is being escalated.
