I want to start my project with Mogre but...

i do following Mogre Basic Tutorial 0 and i try to run Testing Application but it error.

- i install MOGRE 1.4.8 SDK in "C:\MogreSDK".

- i use windows vista sp1 and vs2008.

- download MogreFramework.dll to "C:\MogreSDK\bin\Debug" and "C:\MogreSDK\bin\Release".

- download and install vcredist_x86.exe.

- download and install directx_nov2007_redist.exe.

- set path ";C:\MogreSDK\bin\release;C:\MogreSDK\bin\debug".

- create project.

- delete form1 and add references (Mogre.dll and MogreFramework.dll)

- place config file(media.cfg ,plugins.cfg ,quake3settings.cfg ,resources.cfg) in project "\bin\Debug" and "\bin\release"(manual create)

if i remove "Plugin=RenderSystem_Direct3D9.dll" in plugins.cfg and run project again will show






i can't run SDK mogre demos. What's wrong!!!

to use MogreSDK, i need to install OgreSDK ?

i am a beginer in Mogre and English, help me please...

- set path ";C:\MogreSDK\bin\release;C:\MogreSDK\bin\debug".


instead of setting path, copy the debug dll's of mogre to your project debug directory, and release mogre dll's to your project release directory, i suspect that, since both mogre.dll from release and debug have the same name, there is a confilct.

thank for help but it not work for me, may i mistake? T_T

If I recall correctly the MOGRESDK install only has the plugins in the debug directory. Make sure you have RenderSystem_Direct3D9.dll in the release directory as well?

i have RenderSystem_Direct3D9.dll in the release directory sure.

I am having the same problem using the vb.net tutorial 0.

Windows XP Pro
Visual Studio 2005 Professional SP1
Mogre 1.4.8 SDK
Directx 9.0c

Here is the error:


Here is the Mogre release folder contents which clearly shows the dll:


Here is my plugins.cfg:

# Defines plugins to load

# Define plugin folder
PluginFolder=C:\MogreSDK\bin\release\

# Define plugins
Plugin=RenderSystem_Direct3D9
Plugin=RenderSystem_GL
Plugin=Plugin_ParticleFX
Plugin=Plugin_BSPSceneManager
Plugin=Plugin_OctreeSceneManager
Plugin=Plugin_CgProgramManager


I have searched the forums, but none of the fixes seem to fit my situation.

Thanks for any assistance.

I was investigating about this problem, and apparently find the answer, the link to MogreFramework points to an outdated version, compiled with a previous version of Mogre, so the solution is to recompile the MogreFramework with the new version of Mogre ( 1.4.8 ). I don't use the MogreFramework anymore (i have my own framework) but as a favour to the comunity I uploaded a recompiled version with C# Express 2008, in release mode only (i don't use debug) the link is here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/129214459/MogreFramework.zip

This is a temporary measure, until the developer of MogreFramework makes an update. Or if you need a version compiled in debug mode, or with another version of visual studio (2005), you can download the source code of the MogreFramework here (SVN):

http://www.idleengineer.net/tutorials/MogreFramework

and compile it yourself, remember to delete the reference to old mogre and add the new reference before compiling.

Hope this helps

I've been trying to use Mogre 1.4.8 but so far I could only get it working in Release mode (using VC#2008 Express).

When I try to run Samples from Mogre Tutorials in debug mode, I get the same dreaded error of Could not load RenderSystem_Direct3D9_d.dll.

I've read many of the threads in this forum about the same problem.

I'm new to C# and Mogre. I downloaded the source code of Morgeframework via SVN and tried to compile it. I removed the old reference to Mogre and add it back by browsing to the Morge.dll (from the debug folder) from 1.4.8.

Then I tried to compile Morgeframework.

In the class definition of DefaultInputHandler, I changed the line

Timer mTimer = new Timer();
to
System.Windows.Forms.Timer mTimer = new System.Windows.Forms.Timer();

because VC# complained about ambiguity in "Timer".

Then it compiled fine. I copy the newly generated Mogreframework.dll to the debug folder of one of the Mogre Sample program (BSP) but the result is the same: "could not load .\RenderSystem_Direct3D9_d.dll".

I hope some good soul could help us!

I managed to get it working the first time by taking all the release drivers, dropping them in the project Debug folder and adding the _d to the end, never had the compiler complain since =]

Mephs, thanks for the tip! I did that for RenderSystem_Direct3D9 and my program runs fine from VS host with debugging features like breakpoints working now!!
