I'm seeing the exact same thing here, Windows 7 X64.
Previous versions worked just fine. The error is when trying to launch catapult.

Running openmsx.exe dircectly does work, though, but it'snot easy to cingure your machine.

Thanks, I asked Vampier to take a look. This means the library version of wxWidgets doesn't match the header file, when compiling Catapult.

@Murilo: openMSX just started to work okay for you, or did you manage to fix it / find the problem?

ren: as he said, openMSX works, but Catapult doesn't. It's a problem of the built binary of Catapult. Nothing he could have done could have fixed it, except for properly compiling it himself (including the wxWidgets library code).

I know, but surely you remember the seemingly unresolvable issues he (and others apparently) were having? So I was referring to that. :)

Yeah, I don't know about these, but this particular case seems pretty clear. EDIT: ah, this is the same guy... OK. Then I'm also very interested to know

OK, Vampier finished building in a new attempt And he double checked it so that it works.

So, if you're on Windows please:
1. uninstall the current 17.0
2. (re)download the updated binary package
3. install again
4. try again and report here

Thanks and enjoy!
