Text (EX9) doesn't work

hey,

i’m sitting on a clients machine with latest vvvv, directx and net framework installed. but the Text (EX.9) doesn’t work. Means that I’m able to see and create the node, but it shows nothing in the renderer. Also the helppatch has no rendered text inside, just a green background.
i first thought it’s a .net problem, but timeliner and lindenmayer work perceftly fine.
no tty output on text node creation. win7 pro, nvidia geforce gtx 460.

any ideas?

phl

tty output on starting a patch with only Text (EX9) connected to Renderer (EX9) and one Renderer (TTY) inside:

try installing slimDX june 2010…

oh yes, worked. thanks kalle.

forgot about that because
i thought it’s not necesarry anyomore at all?

or all the Microsoft Visual C++ Redist files. and please tell us how it worked out.

on my laptop i had to reinstall slimdx last week.

honestly i don’t know why; because i have had installed it before already.

had the same situation when i updated to the latest version of vvvv.
installed “DirectX End-user Runtime update”. it solved the problem.

Installing (was not installed before!) SlimDX solved the problem in my case. Reinstalling DirectX and .Net did not.
