Folks,

Some people will have had difficulties in running a new project if you are using Windows Vista 64bit. The included samples of the toolkit were built using the x86 platform, and therefore run correctly on this Operating System.

What I've neglected to do, was to update the Template Project files for both C# and VB.NET to default to the x86 Platform. When you create a new project, can you change your Platform build configuration to x86, and this should resolve any issues when running the project under 64bit mode.

I will fix the templates for the next release update, but I hope this resolves the problem in the meantime.

[EDIT] Fixed spellings, sorry, flu bug has knocked me down a bit.

Paul.

I can add that also for the C++ version of DGDK, in Vista 64 I had nothing but problems with things like shaders and sparky's plugins.
Did an install into WinXP and everything works right out of the box!

Oh,

I know what I mean, but I never had a problem that way, only when using a real windows forms.

Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to try the new toolkit

I use the message because it was Vista related I think and I did not have this with the previous version just wanted to let Paul know about the problem

It is not stopping me from developing or running the program but just hope that if it is something in the engine then it could be corrected with the next version.
