Hi all, First of all, I'm sorry if this is a trivial question. I have spent hours on this but still can't seem to find a solution. I have an old project that was compiled with the 1.4.9 version of Ogre with the addon MyGUI. I have downloaded the new version of Ogre (1.6.4) on this PC and decide to recompile the code. I had minor problems in the start but managed to actually compile but the program won't run. It won't render anything on the screen. Just opens a window and then crash. I checked Ogre.log and there's some errors that I have no clue how to rectify. Below are the errors from the Ogre log :

(This is the last line in the log)

The first 3 errors can be "fixed" by deleting the relevant .material files from the scripts folder. However, I can't seem to remedy the errors after that. I have double checked and I am sure that Metal.jpg is in the media/models folder but that doesn't seem to help. I have tried to remove Metal1.mesh but then I get a window saying the resource cannot be located. Any advice/input welcomed. Thank you.

This thread's a little old, so I hope you figured it out. In case you haven't, though, did you create the models/materials/textures you're trying to load? How did you do it?
