New Release D3D9Client Development

jarmonik · Sep 15, 2012

Here is a new build of the client. Debug controls are working atleast on my computer. I did some cleaning up but I still don't understand what was wrong from the first place.

Has anything changed there ?

Works nicely here again. Something did change between R3 and R4 as I rolled back to R3 and the debug controls was working again. Installed R4 and they were non-functional.

Here my build works, too. I've looked at your changes and can also not really see why it now works :hmm:.
But in R4 the debugger couldn't access vObj (but DebugControl::vObject).
In R4b I havn't debugged it, but when it works, no need to debug :lol:

I would say: ...don't know why, but the issue is fixed!

jarmonik, what is the status of displaying cloud textures? So far, I've found that the clouds look brighter and whiter than in the inline graphics. Also, they are limited at a texture base size of 256x256, so the earth cloud texture I made for the inline graphics (which has a base texture size of 512x512) does not work in the D3D9 client.

Unrelated- I noticed the normal (bump) map capability, and now I'm happily adding normal maps to all of my vessels and stations. Thanks for such an easy way to enhance existing textures.

I look forward to when we can have level 10+ clouds, with normal maps!

Your D3D9 client is amazing. Keep up the good work!

dumbo2007 · Sep 16, 2012

Hey Felix24,

you should make a bump map addon pack and upload orbiter hangar

The DeltaGliderIV is not compatible with D3D9-client.

It is. The new version anyway.

Ripley · Sep 16, 2012

Maybe you are a beta-tester and you have the latest version?

The version publicly available now (DeltaGliderIV2_20100114.exe) is NOT compatible.

Next DG version will be both D3D9 & D3D11 compatible.
The good news is that it is "nearly" ready for release, maybe tuesday, maybe in a couple of tuesdays...

In case you don't follow Dansteph's forum, have a look at this:

ok, then i guess ill just have to wait

Is anyone else having problems with the D3D9 client under Windows 8? When I start up Orbiter with the default DeltaGlider scenario it crashes right away on load with this in the log:

**** Creating simulation session

This is with a GTX 680 that works fine under Windows 7 (the test was in windowed mode). Any ideas??

[The internal DX7 client works fine on Windows 8 for me, BTW.]

Could you re-install the DX runtimes. The link is in the first post and in the D3D9Client website. Could you report back if that will fix the problem. If yes, then I'll add instructions to the error messages to install them.

I am pretty sure it's a missing D3DX9_42.dll

EDIT: I have added a runtime library check. If the runtimes are missing the client should display an error message and reference to the documentation and the Orbiter won't launch.

dbeachy1 · Sep 17, 2012

That did the trick! Thanks a bunch, the DX9 client works great on Windows 8 now!

Ripley · Sep 18, 2012

Sorry for the shameless plug, but we recently had some brainstorming at FOI about Junctions & Symbolic Links.
This little guide is the outcome, I hope it can be of some use.

There shouldn't be such limitations. But I can't test it because I can't find the clouds you created.

Felix24 · Sep 20, 2012

It was a project I did a few weeks ago. I haven't uploaded it to Orbithangar (yet), as there are still some rough edges in it, but maybe I could send you the file.

I'll download it when it's ready, please let me know about it. It belive must be somewhere around 100-200MB in size.

Felix24 · Sep 20, 2012

It's not that bad. Currently it zips very nicely into 56 MB.

The Client seems to have a Problem with black transparent color key in 2D panels. The black area is not transparent, but black.
I am using white (0xFFFFFF) now and it works.
