Make sure your Irrlicht.dll is up to date along with the executable.

Reinstalled VS? That's a little drastic.

Did you put an older/newer Irrlicht.dll anywhere else in your path that is, like in c:\windows\system32? You will need to remove or update those.

Crud, how do I do this again?

Looks like a c++ name mangling problem to me... i use vs.net 2003, and never had problems, cause i always recompile irrlight in all my projects...
So try to recompile the irrlicht dll, it might help

Do you have a 3D graphics card? :)
Is DirectX 9 installed?
Have you installed the latest drivers?

Looks like there is some problem when calling a procedure in the driver.

i have a Geforce card with the latest drivers installed,
i have also the latest version of DirectX

:(

-> Celhtar ----- i thought of a possibility that maybe i didn't do right when i choosed the link adress / include folder adress..... i am new to VS.Net and havent really found out where everything is in the menus.

maybe you could tell me how to 'initialize' irrlicht to VS??

Do the examples that come with Irrlicht work on your PC? At least you have then isolated the problem a little bit if you know this. When I don't know what an error message is, whether it be a compiler error or a runtime error, I always try to narrow the possibilities down to a minimum.

Also, try running in OpenGL instead of DirectX. Not saying that is the problem but at least you can discount it if you try.

Do you use the original Irrlicht.dll?

Because I have the same Message, when I use Irrlicht.dll which was compiled by myself.
Look at http://www.z-software.de for interesting games.

I'm getting the same message, but it says the procedure entry point instead of startupprocedure.

Any body? My dll is in the right folder. This is the only installation of Irrlicht that I have.

When I bring in the project listed in the examples i get the same error, so i'm assuming it's related to the VS .NET configurations.
