Problem with directx and demo app.

Howdy all,
Just purchased the SDK today. Looks great so far. I do have 1 nagging problem that the demo app will not switch
to directx. I am running 8.1 DX, Win 98, card is a Visiontek MX200 GE Force.

Tribes 2 demo, crimeforce test all let me pick directx.
What was wierd was at first I could select it then it would crash. Now can't select it at all.

I also tried command line -directX .

Ok I re extracted the zip file and overwrote the old demo. Now it will let me select it but it looks like goop. Here is a screenshot.

There's a D3D bug in the Release_1_1_1, you can find a solution/workaround here: www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=forums&page=result.thread&qt=3541
