Tomb Raider 3 hangs with dd7to9 enabled

[thekovic]

So I saw Tomb Raider 3 listed as a supported 3D game here but I've had no success getting it to work. When I enable Dd7to9 and launch the game, the process appears but I never get a window and about 5 seconds later, the process hangs, forcing me to terminate it in Task Manager. I tried enabling all the options suggested under Troubleshooting and their different combinations. I'm using the Steam install of Tomb Raider 3.

Here's a log: dxwrapper-tomb3 - kopie.log

Maybe that was with some of the patches?

You mean the compatibility was tested with some patches? I used a completely fresh install from Steam, no additional enhancements

Uh, the support column says "none"; in fact that's for the all 3D games.

Yeah, I am working on the Direct3D functions, but today only the DirectDraw 2D functions work. You could try enabling DDrawCompat instead of Dd7to9.
