DirecX9 rendering issue

Ok I installed the new Ofusion CE version, but it keeps wanting to default to OpenGL.

I have tried opening 3dsmax, setting viewport from GL to D3D. Save the settings. quit max and then restarting.

At this point it says it is DX9.

I then create a simple scene and a light. and then create the viewport.

At this point the standard Ogre options config window pops up (never used to happen). There is no API selected. So I select DX9.

There are the default options that are enabled.

NVPerfHUD no
Antialiasing none
Floating Point fastest
Full Scrn yes
Render Device NVIDIA GeForce 6600GT
Vsynch no
Video Mode 800x600 @ 32-bit color

------

I click on the OK button. and it seems to be ok.

However the next time I go to the viewport menu, I get a popup

"New Render System will be udes at the next oFusion Activation"

when I reactivate the viewport, sure enough it starts in GL again.

I can go through the process again to change it back to DX9.

Everytime I load my scene back up I have to restart the process and get it back to DX9.

And often when I save it with the viewport on, and then immediately try and open the saved file again 3DS max will crash to the desktop.

-------

The latest build of ofusion only seems to work as expected in OpenGL (Expected as in no Ogre rendering setup windows, and it stays in openGL)

On my Nvidia cards Ogre is over 70% slower in GL than DX9 and worse on older cards so we don't use it.

Any help with stablising DX9 would be great. I uninstalled Max and reinstalled a fresh copy incase there was corruption from my test version, but that doesn't seem to be the problem.

I will review this inmediatly

oops double post.

Did you manage to replicate this problem? I went back to the test version for the moment, as that seems to work fine.

I got exactly the same problem :)

It have been fixed, expect the hotfix available for download on Monday

Heh, nice one

Hello,

Is the hotfix available now ?

Thanks
