My game is currently displaying weird shadow/alpha blending after playing it for a while (5-10min) I think render-targets get somehow corrupted during gameplay. When i capture it with PIX tho, the framebuffer (d3d surface) rendered by last rendering primitive has nothing wrong. ... I'm a bit confused here. I see the visual corruption in the game, but don't see it in PIX capturing. Any idea?

Are you doing your pix capture when you see the corruption in game?

Comparison screenshots (one of the actual in-game view with artefacts, and one of the pix capture) might help understand what's going on.

Which version of the DirectX SDK are you using as well? I would recommend moving to the August SDK if you haven't already and see if the problem persists.
