Beginner Rendering

Postby StrickenKid » Wed Jun 23, 2010 06:29

Hi, I'm using CEGUI to interface a game-overlay (something like Xfire).

The overlay hooks the DirectX9 game's EndScene and inserts its own rendering logic.

Unfortunately CEGUI::System::create is giving problems...

I'm using the code from: http://www.cegui.org.uk/wiki/index.php/ ... _Rendering

First it was just crashing the game, no error message box, I did some reading on older posts, from what happened to them it looked like it was because some dll's we're missing from the exe's directory, to be sure, I just copied all of \bin\ from the SDK (not "_d.dll") over to the exe's dir.

Then, silly me... I found CEGUI.log in the exe's dir.

The log read:

Code: Select all

So I did some more searching, I found that it need SILLY.dll from \dependencies\bin, so I added it. Tried starting the game...

Now i get an "Assertion Failed" message box, and the log now reads:

(i included the whole thing just to be safe)

And here is the message box error:

I'm wondering what else is wrong?

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,
StrickenKid

EDIT: I fixed it, for some reason I had it calling init() twice.
