While playing "The Twin Heroes III"， When I go to the next map as shown in Figure 1, the game will pop up and report the error "direct_3d->CreateDevice" image image

There is probably nothing I can do about that. cnc-ddraw does only support 2D (DirectDraw) games and this game is trying to create a Direct3D device apparently

Maybe try out DxWnd, it does support Direct3D and it can also run games in a window just like cnc-ddraw

Another option would be to check the settings files of the game and/or the registry, maybe there is a way to disable Direct3D
