Unhandled Exception Upon Program Start

[tgibson]

Hi,

Downloaded and installed the latest development version of MCX. The previous version I had downloaded (on 2/16/12) worked fine. I see it may be a shader issue - is there a way to avoid this problem if my video card doesn't support this?

Details:

Upon program start got an Unhandled exception error:

Object reference not se to an instance of an object.

If I choose Continue there is a big red X on the 3D display screen.

The details of the error:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Hi,

You still have this issue?

If you previous development release was from february it was still a version without shaders I think.

Send from my phone using Tapatalk, so excuse the short sentences and possible typos

Hi,

It's an older computer with a very weak video card. I will be updating soon, so the problem will eventually go away. It works fine on my main FS computer.
