Hi,
We have just bought Flightgear Simulator G 4.5 version just the other day - got it brand new. We have run it on one of our computers. Everything went fine, and the Simulator Control Device (the one with the joysticks, haha) installed nicely too. The DirectX program also installed without any problems.
Then, of course, we open up the program for the first time, enter the serial numbers, and then......WE GET TWO ERROR MESSAGES !! And you can't get rid of them unless you use Task Manager and kill off the whole program. The two error messages just keep repeating over and over again - they alternate between:
Error: D3DERR_INVALIDCALL
File: .\DXEffect.cpp
Line: 896
...and....
Error: D3DERR_INVALIDCALL
File: .\DXEffect.cpp
Line: 836
What can I do??? I am stuck and I got NO idea what to do about it. (I'm from Australia by the way !!).
BTW, I have updated the program via the internet, and it installed some files, but aside from that, no difference at all.
This is our computer specs, if that is of any use:
System: Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3 (2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.080814-1236)
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz (2 CPUs)

Date: 2/15/2008 11:54:16, 57344 bytes
CD-ROM (?:\) ATAPI DVD A DH20A3S (?)
Installed in: C:\Program Files\RealFlightG4
Free Disk Space (C:\): 207188 mb free
Launcher Version: 1.00.039
LauncherHelper Version: 1.00.322

If anyone can help, I would REALLY appreciate it greatly.
Thankyou in advance,
Kind regards,
David
