Advice needed...vireio nightly works 32bit not 64bit win7...

Post by yankebupt »

At first the D3D proxy version works fine...
I'm using win7 64bit.
I downloaded 2.0 to try out and found out it asks for BaseDirect3d9 dll Entry point.....
I doubt it was the directx so I tried Installing directx 9.0c and later directX sdk 2010 but none worked.
Then I tried it on VM runs win7 32bit, it worked.

Advice needed on how can I start the program on 64bit win7 or which snapshot I need to build myself for use on win7 64bit. Thanks. Any advice would be grateful.

You may need to copy the Vireio DLL files to the game's EXE directory. In a future version of Vireio, this will no longer be necessary.

After a few hours of playing around the dll files I got Perception.exe started on a windows server 2012 x64 VM....It seemed something is broken with my win7 directx....
Sorry to have troubled anybody.
Reinstalling my OS in a few hours....

update:
I renamed d3d9.dll in system32 and sysWOW64 and rebooted...serveral warnings during next reboot. After that I renamed them back. And it worked...
Looks like some program is hijacking the d3d9.dll already(maybe the video streamer maybe something else).
Sorry about the post.
