Hey everyone, this seems like a basic problem and it's probably right underneath my nose but I can seem the problem in this statement.

	
if(FAILED(pDevice->CreateVertexBuffer(18 * sizeof(CUSTOMVERTEX),
                                               0, D3DFVF_CUSTOMVERTEX,
                                               D3DPOOL_DEFAULT, &pVertBuffer)))
    {
        return false;
    }

CUSTOMVERTEX is a structure I'm using and creating cvvVertices cube. The error I get is: error C2660: 'IDirect3DDevice8::CreateVertexBuffer' : function does not take 3 arguments It's possible I missed a line of code somewhere above because I was following a tutorial just by looking at it (not copying and pasting, the true n00b way). Also, pVertBuffer is declared (in case you thought that was the problem).

if(FAILED(pDevice->CreateVertexBuffer(18 * sizeof(CUSTOMVERTEX),
0, D3DFVF_CUSTOMVERTEX,
D3DPOOL_DEFAULT, &pVertBuffer, NULL)))
{
return false;
}

I've tried that and it still gives me that same error abour 3 arguments.

Ah, sorry, didn't see that this is DX8. My solution was for DX9.

Well, parenthesis count matches so I'd say the problem is in the definition of
D3DFVF_CUSTOMVERTEX. The compiler gets only 3 params for the function. D3DFVF_CUSTOMVERTEX is the 3rd, so the param listing stops there for some reason. Don't have any better ideas.
