See subject and this remark on Farcry : https://github.com/Cxbx-Reloaded/game-compatibility/issues/62#issuecomment-381385105 for details.
The dialog is triggered by this line: https://github.com/Cxbx-Reloaded/Cxbx-Reloaded/blob/master/src/CxbxKrnl/EmuD3D8.cpp#L5099 or around that, the line reading : CxbxKrnlCleanup("CreateTexture Failed!

I found that Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4, and Tony Hawk's Underground 1 & 2 displays. I don't have any other Tony Hawk games to check if they do it too.

Persistent error in Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge (Format 80) (Edit: Nov 29, 2020 - Probably gone now.).
An old post (Just 8 days before the next post) showing that Cold Fear (Format 23. Same as Panzer Dragoon Orta.) has this popup message.
