Demo_PagingLandScape2.exe Runtime error with VC++9.0 build

I am newbie to OGRE, just trying to evaluate whether the terrain paging features will satisfy my requirements, but I can't seem to get the demo to work.

When I run the demo I get an "Access violation reading location 0x00000000" in ..\PagingLandScape2\src\OgrePagingLandScapeOctreeSceneManager.cpp line 1758

mPagingLandScapeOctree->traversal(RegisterCameraTraversal(c), 0);

mPagingLandScapeOctree appears to be null when it shouldn't be.


Watch window of mPagingLandScapeOctree :
- mPagingLandScapeOctree 0x00000000 {mChildren=0x00000028 mNodes=[...]() mMovingNodes=[...]() ...} Ogre::PagingLandScapeOctree *

Anyone have any Ideas?

VC++9.0 (VS2008) debug build.

I have read this post to the end, but to no avail. I am unsure what he did to make his project run... http://www.ogre3d.org/addonforums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7265&start=60


I downloaded the tarball from here http://ogreaddons.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ogreaddons/trunk/paginglandscape/


I ran into compile errors that i managed to resolve and posted solutions here: http://www.ogre3d.org/addonforums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9479

I guess I should clarify. It appears that the pointer is not properly initialized, but I cannot find the code that initializes it.

First use the forum search^^

Here you find your Solution in the second Answer viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9386&p=54750&hilit=mPagingLandScapeOctree#p54750 .

Zero,

Thanks! I think I did read that post, and the one I linked above referenced the preprocessor setting as well, but apparently fatigue got the better of me and I applied it to the demo app instead of the PLSM project. Just needed a fresh brain on it.
