Hi, All
Some days ago, after having evolved to Woff 2.14 and motley crew 2.0 (with balance of power 5.0 installed ), my Woff .exe brings me systematicaly back to desktop ...
The log shows the following :
full path: D:\WOFF\OBDWW1 Over Flanders Fields\
redirecting CreateDevice
initialising shader environment
D3DXCreateEffectFromFile failed
SweetFX_preset.txt(1,10): error X1507: failed to open source file: 'D:/FlightFX/FX/SweetFX/Presets/SweetFX_CFS3_settings.txt'
This happens on my ASUS laptop , I7 with turbo boost reaching 2.9 Ghz, nvidia GT 540M, 4GB RAM...I know these specs are not top notch for WOFF, but everything ran quite well though till a few days ago...
any help would be welcome !
Cheers

Kaa, I'm no expert on this but it looks like you are having some problem loading the shader code. Did you update SweetFX or some such software since your last successful run of WOFF? It might help the devs to know what has changed.

Hi Robert and thanks for your answer
I did not touch anything in the SweetFX thingie, and to be honest, I even did not know that I was using it with WOFF 2.0 (installed it for WOFF 1.0 IIRC).

Have you tried a re-install of the DX9 as recommended on the WOFF site's FAQ (see item 40 in the following link on how to do this). WOFF FAQ, scroll to item 40 and read details

Pol makes a good point that I should have thought to mention.
Before updating with any WOFF files, always remove all mods and non WOFF add-ons, then test WOFF and then put the mods and add-ons back in to test again. Standard procedure.

Ok ! WOFF runs now by uninstalling the SweetFx files following these instructions : http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3847952They even 'corrupted' my BoB2 install , everything goes now better on this side too.
