   Wanna give a try for my work-in-progress map editor?
  Hi,Some time ago I announced the first release of my hobby project Core 3D,now I have released Alpha 2.0 for public testing. Here's some quick links for screenshots:http://koti.mbnet.fi/blender/pics/pic19.jpghttp://koti.mbnet.fi/blender/pics/pic20.jpghttp://koti.mbnet.fi/blender/pics/pic21.jpgIf you want more information and download the binaries, justhead for the Core 3D website, which I'm updating actively (I'm currently usingjust some ftp path that is named after my user name, so don't mix upthe name blender to the editor named respectively, please ;)http://koti.mbnet.fi/blender/Quick link for the release: http://koti.mbnet.fi/blender/files/c3dalpha2.rarI really hope you could give it a try and give some feedback,it has required some hardwork to get to this point.   
  I really like the interface, very sleek.  The mouse movement in the 3D viewport was a little jerky, but may just be my machine.  Also, the office level did not seem to generate the lightmap correctly behind the office chair right under the window.  There was a big black rectangle along the wall even though 2 light sources were projecting light around it.  Other than that, really nice program.  Also, is the gui your own custom gui system?   ;  Yeah the GUI is my own design, based on OpenGL so I'd think it could be used in any OS that ogl supports.   ;  I tried to start the editor, but got the following error message:This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.Changing the paths in Config.ini didn't work, so it seems there's something else going on...Anyway, from the screenshots it looks like a nice tool. But I'd like to be able to test it before saying anything else... :)   ;  I get an "unable to locate DLL error " for MSVCP80.dll   ;Quote:Original post by Captain PI tried to start the editor, but got the following error message:This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.

But I'd like to be able to test it before saying anything else... :)This sounds like a problem with win XP setup, are you sure you have the latest updates, or at least SP2? I'm using visual c++ express edition with windows platform sdk to compile. Try installing .net framework binaries. Also thatMSVCP80.dll error tells me that something for windows needs to be installed. Not sure what though.   ;  I've got SP1, not 2, so I assume that causes the problem?Personally I'm not a fan of having to install .net or some service packs to run software, though I can understand it may be hard to work without certain libraries. Oh well...   ;  Yeah I usually hate having to install some 3rd party stuff, but I'm not very familiar with vc++ nor .net framework, so I really don't know how to compile the app in a way not to include that specific framework.
