Hello SBDJ!

Enter Chinese characters.Very good.However,

When the user presses the load button, I get Direct3D Not initialised and error message.

By the way, I have installed DirectX 9.0 c.

Please help.

Try "Activating" the plugin first, then load your file. Note that you must create your text's first, then save them before you can load them with the plugin.

Did anything ever come of the new scrolltext version then, or did Tayla convince you to shelve it in favour of the Firetext thing? ;-)

I certainly hope not. Firetext is a great program but ridiculously expensive. I understand it's new and all but it's a little out of my price range. I didn't even pay that much for VDJ. I basically just want text to request and maybe polling for contests. I don't need a chatroom in my club. I love the plug-ins that Scott (SBDJ) creates for all of us here at VDJ and I hope he continues his work here for us all.

Thats a definate nope, there is no way that i could influence Scott in anyway on the progress of a plugin, other than like you guys putting forward suggestions that you would like to see included in his next release. Honestly my show wouldn't look as half as good without the use of Scotts plugins.

Anyway why would I, if you have never used the free Firetext plugin then you wouldn't understand how some of Scotts work and Firetexts both compliment each other when used together, get the plugin from the download section and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.

As for some of the guys not wanting or needing the use of all the functions of the plugin "it's horses for courses" as we say over here and we at Firetext understand that, thats why I'll be shortly announcing a solution for that dilema.

Paul.

As soon as Slideshow v2 is sorted, this is next on my list to finish off. I'm trying to get all my projects done so I can draw a line under them and move on with new stuff :)

On the General tab, make sure that Service Status is Started, and that Startup Type is Automatic.

There are plenty of hits for it on google, so I'd recommend doing a search there and seeing what you can turn up.

i tried, but still with the problem.
by the way i downloaded a new driver from n videa 9600 the size is 144 mb (195.62_notebook_winvista_win7_64bit_international_whql)
but still facing the same problem.
any clue?
by the way i cane format the notebook and put the win7 ultimate, the scroll text will work, but i am facing problems with freezing.
wherever i am using the vdj pro under the win7, if i want to use the slide show, or if i minimize the vdj to open any folder the picture freezes in my laptop but not in the other scream that people are watching.
so i do ctrl+alt+delete, the laptop will rework normally, but the picture on the analogue screen will turn to white, so i have to press the video activation button twice, than everything will work properly.
that's why i returned to vista.
any help?

Has anyone else had/have the issue where if you load a data file for scrolltext, it starts, but with invisible text until you open the font selector and close it again.

I rarely create my text, usually opening it for each shift from a sved file, but about 25% of the time it starts (after clicking open in load file), but there is no text. I know its showing text as the background pops up with nothing in it. Soon as i open and close font, the text appears.

Had this issue from the start of v1 but never really chased it up till now.

halo_djk :

I have a sort of the same thing as that but sometime the font/scoll is missing some letters & stuff i have to reload the file again...

I used to have that problem too, but not sure what fixed it, maybe the newer 1.1 version or newer runtimes. You may save some time by using my fix to correct the garbled text though and just open and close the font window.

@ Halo. Thanks for pointing out where to get info about the D9X link on the other thread. Got scroll text working but I saved some files and just like you pointed out when I load them nothing is shown. I did open the font and not getting the text to show.

Understand yours is corrected now but just wondering when do you remember it being corrected? When you mention the newer 1.1; was that a recent release?
