We have wired gloves from Immersion that we'd like to use within the newest version of Vizard. Unfortunately, when loading the cyberglove.dls plugin, winviz.exe crashes.

First I run the virtual hand device manager followed by the DCU. The DCU successfully shows the movement of my hand / fingers. Next when starting up a vizard demo, Winviz.exe crashes and supplies the error dialog boxes (see the bitmaps).
I just installed the newest version of Vizard today, as well as uninstalling and reinstalling the Virtual Hand SDK.

I did have some problems with the SDK working initially, however. I had an issue getting the authorization utility to work. The utility issued the following error: Init Failure: NETWORK: REPLY FROM NETWORK DRIVER IS BAD (-103) for C:\....\LICENSE.TXT. In order to fix this issue, I had to delete the c:\windows\system32\esnecil.ind file and re-booted my machine. I am wondering if this would have anything to do with Winviz.exe crashing.

Please help! Thanks.

The second screenshot seems to suggest that the crash is occurring in the VirtualHand library. We have a wired CyberGlove connected over serial and it works fine. We are using the Aug 21 2006 build of the DCU. I really don't know what could be causing this. Do you have a minimal script that reproduces this crash?

import viz

sensor = viz.add('cyberglove.dls')
hand = hand.add(sensor,hand.CYBERGLOVE)

viz.go()

Send me an email at lashkari@worldviz.com and I will provide you with a debug version of the plugin. Hopefully this will let us know where the crash is occurring.
