Your graphics hardware is having a hard time switching back to 3D mode, but this might be caused by several different things....

    You'll have to tell us about your system configuration -- OS, graphics hardware and DirectX version for starters. Then we might be able to toss out suggestions, and if we're lucky one of them will turn out to be helpful!

    its XP system, using a renderer: LithTech Direct3D renderer (3d3.ren) apparently for display settings. Does the game not have software graphics such as in the last 2 MM games? maybe that is the problem. I do have directX installed, proberbly a far advanced one, but that shouldnt be the problem. Any ideas?

Little Spotted Kiwi makes a good point. Did you possibly initiate travel while in turn-based mode?

Can you turn off the renderer? at least until you get off the initial isle.

    Not sure if showing the video was the problem but bear it in mind in other "video" places
    i.e.
    Mines
    Bathhouse
    and iirc
    1000 terrors

I always needed to "touch book" real time, instead of TBM, see video, move off Island.

Loading screen fixx
12/04/2009, 18:08:08

    This is only a partial fix, it doesnt keep the loading screen from hanging, but it DOES allow you to alt tab back into the game without getting that blank screen with blue borders problem 95% of the time.


    1: Turn off anti aliasing in your display driver settings if you can. (Not super important just helps a little)

    2: Turn off "optimize surfaces" and "trilinear" in the video options of the game (important)

    3: Right click > properties > compatibility > disable desktop composition. Do this on your shortcuts and the exe file. (important)

    4: Change your desktop resolution to 800x600 while playing the game. This is the res the game plays in. (important)

    The alt tab fix should now work properly without giving you blue borders blank screen issues. It still sucks compared to not having the load screen problem at all, but it at least makes playing bearable. If you have a fast computer its hardly even noticeable really.
