Problem With Skinning Animation

[rifter1818]

First off i would like to thank robyDx For his wonderfull tutorial on the subject of skinning animation, i used his source code to start getting my project up and running, slight problem though it doesnt work in full screen mode, ive tried using dbmon and unmannaged debugging and couldnt get any more information with either of them. the problem occers at

            RootFrame = Mesh.LoadHierarchyFromFile(filesrc, MeshFlags.Managed, Device, alloc, Nothing)
or if your using robydxs class (Same error on full screen)
        animazione = Mesh.LoadHierarchyFromFile(filesrc, MeshFlags.Managed, device, alloc, Nothing)

the error reads somewhat like this

InitializeWorld:Error in the application.
-2005530516 (D3DERR_INVALIDCALL)
   at Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.Mesh.LoadHierarchyFromFile(String filename, MeshFlags options, Device device, AllocateHierarchy allocHierarcy, LoadUserData userDataLoader)

Hmm

Doesnt Appear to be fullscreen anymore, But its still crashing at the excact same spot in my application the exact same code seems to work fine in roby dxs and i cant figure out why same code same file?! anyone know of any settings i might have changed that would prevent it from working?

The Source Code For the Skinning Animation

Im Attaching the code for the class its the same as robyDxs But translated and it works in robydxs sample program (i used this exact code) but with the same files it crashes in mine (see error above).

Try setting VS to break into debugger when any exception is thrown (Debug->Exceptions). I hope this helps, I havent had the time to check your code.

Didnt help just stops at the line but nothing seams out of order..

Ive taken the time to test your code. It works ok for me. Where do you get an exception. Do you use HAL device? The most common mistake is that your device does not support that many bone weights as are required by the mesh.

Found it

yet again another stupid mistake by me, hardest kind to see, my refrence to the device was wrong Just by passing a few instances of the device to the classes it worked, really wierd that nothing about the device came up in the error message though. *hides from people who spent thier valuable time helping my stupidity*
