Sorry for some inconvenience, but link in my comment leads straight to my post with RC2 link (just checked).

Sorry didn't notice your comment after OlderTroll's. The link in the news article links to the next page in the forum.

be5e0471067549cf48f9a882f4961151bb934fcb apparently caused a launcher regression. Zini, could you please revert it, so we can get new builds while i look into it?

[Zini]

Done.

[scrawl]

Then make RC5 builds please

Right, 32-bit build for RC5 can be found here:
http://ace.haxalot.com/projects/OpenMW/ ... -win32.exe

The 64-bit build will take a bit longer, CMake decided to remove my build environment.

Edit:

64-Bit build now available here:
http://ace.haxalot.com/projects/OpenMW/ ... -win64.exe

I just downloaded the rc5 and have a bug. It's a fresh install of MW and OpenMW on Windows 7 64 bit.

Launcher crashes when I try to open run it. Error message is:
---------------------------
Error creating Ogre::Root
---------------------------
<br><b>Failed to create the Ogre::Root object</b><br><br> Make sure the plugins.cfg is present and valid.<br><br> Press "Show Details..." for more information.<br>
OGRE Exception(7:InternalErrorException): Could not load dynamic library /\RenderSystem_dicrect3d9.
System Error: The specific module could not be found in DynLib::load at B:
\Programming\Projects\Ogre\Source\OgreMain\src\OgreIDynLib.cpp (line 91)

Trying to launch OpenMW directly gets this error: The program can't start because d3dx9_43.dll is missing from your computer.

I thought OpenMW used Ogre, etc as a replacement for DirectX. Also, the Morrowind install didn't popup the error message that I needed to install DirectX 9. Do I still need to install DirectX 9 in addition? Or is this some other problem and I should submit a bug report?

Either a problem with the release by Ace or an issue with your system. Not a bug in openmw.

I thought OpenMW used Ogre, etc as a replacement for DirectX.

It's not a replacement, Ogre is a layer on top of DirectX (or OpenGL).

Ghills: I take it that you have had previous versions of OpenMW. If so, have you deleted the old openmw folder in the mygames directory before installing RC5?
