I don’t get any errors when I compile my game. The only problem is that it won’t apply the texture, instead it applies a color (I know it is weird). If texture has two colors white and red then white will be applied.

Here’s my code

    Your problem is that you do not use the declared textured_vertex at all and use the CUSTOMVERTEX instead. Because CUSTOMVERTEX contains only color information, it is quite obvious what result you will get 🙂 I’d suggest expanding the CUSTOMVERTEX struct like this:

    struct CUSTOMVERTEX
    {
        FLOAT x, y, z;    // from the D3DFVF_XYZRHW flag
        DWORD color;    // from the D3DFVF_DIFFUSE flag
        FLOAT tx, ty;   // from the D3DFVF_TEX1 flag
    };
    

    Also change the define of CUSTOMFVF to match the struct:

    #define CUSTOMFVF (D3DFVF_XYZ | D3DFVF_DIFFUSE | D3DFVF_TEX1)
    

    Also the global array CUSTOMVERTEX vertices[500] seems to be completely unused, remove it so that it doesn’t cause an unwanted behavior in the future. The same goes for the unused textured_vertex struct.
