Strobe Utility v2.0.9 crashes

Post by syXzor » 10 Mar 2019, 15:29

Strobe Utility v2.0.9 does not work for me.

It opens, and ufos start moving for 1 second, then it stops and I get 2 dialogs in the background:

1: Create vertex shader fail : DrawBasic.fx

I click ok and I get another dialog:

2: m_fnInitialize Fail

I click ok and the program exits.

Details:

Benq XL2720Z, firmware v5
Asus RTX 2080 Rog Strix
Nvidia driver: 419.35 (release 2019.3.5)
Ryzen 2700X
Asus X-470 Prime Pro
Windows 10 Pro
1080p@144Hz

Hmmmm. This might be an RTX-series specific bug relating to the graphics framework I use for the UFO animations.

Try launching again and immediately pressing spacebar to turn off the motion test as quickly as possible.
(Spacebar turns on/off the motion test built into Strobe Utility)
Does that bypass the error messages?

I've got a full plate in the near term but in April/May, would you be willing to help me debug Strobe Utility with the RTX series?
