Assumed incompatibility between CortUI and the R4 DX9 client

[Henrik Heimbuerger]

Since the release of the R4 DirectX 9 alpha client, various people have raised the question of an incompatibility between some part of CortUI and the DX9 client.

Examples:

• Forum thread ​Allegiance exits with code: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION by djrbk
• Forum thread ​DX9 + CortUI Compatibility Issues by Drizzo

Apparently, there's a higher chance of crashing with the DX9 client when CortUI is installed.

At this point, not enough data exists to track this down. No error reports have been posted. No report states when exactly it happened and which steps led to it. It's not even known which HUD and settings the reporters have been used.

It is unknown whether the same problem exists with the R5 beta client.
