Title: mgalaxy crash on my new computer :(
Post by: davhuit on November 13, 2013, 10:25:44 PM
I am sad, mGalaxy don't want to work on my new PC (Windows 7 64-bits).

"Run_away" runs but don't display any texts, and so when I try to activate something without seeing anything, then save, it crash.

Mgalaxy only display a blank screen then crash if I press ESC (but it might came from the unconfigured "Run_away").

I tried to copy/paste the directory of this PC (as it's a portable version) but same.

Not to mention I have Microsoft's .NET Framework 4.0 and DirectX 11 installed, and that I have all the admin rights (I use the admin account). Windows Media Player version is 12.0.7600.16667

Here's a pastebin link with the whole error log : http://pastebin.com/0jZTP71f

I hope we can find the problem :o

Pics will be posted soon.

Old : Windows XP SP2 (32-bits) / New : Windows 7 SP1 (64-bits)
Old : Core2Duo E6750 (2.66 Ghz) / New : Core2Duo E8600 (3.33 Ghz)
Old : 4 Gb of RAM / New : 8 Gb of RAM
Old : GeForce 9800 GT (DirectX 9.0c) / New : GeForce GTX 660 (DirectX 11)
Old : Windows Media Player 11.0.5721.5280 / New : Windows Media Player 12.0.7600.16667

Found the problem by searching again on the forum, it was that : http://www.mgalaxy.com/forum/index.php?topic=507.msg1736#msg1736 and it seems to work now.

I really think, but that's just my opinion, that you should say in the download page that "DirectX 9.0c" is required even if you have DirectX11 installed.

I mean, I had DirectX11 installed as my graphic card is compatible with it and I really though it was backward compatible and so that it already had everything required for DX9 programs only.

You're right! That's the reason why I've added some weeks ago a DirectX 9.0c detection at install...with components installation if they are not present on the computer!
You'll find this functionality with the next mGalaxy release installer.
