I think it happen, when I add a Waterplane. Using Debug and DX11 I get:

After that T3D becomes very unstable and crashes on exit. Using GL i've no problems.

Any ideas on that error?

Make a release build, problem solved.

Thanks for the answer

I removed the part "if(mWasLost) ..." in gfxD3D11Shader.cpp. Engine runs much smoother now in debug.

Sorry for cynicism, but that is how I fix most things, if I would bother to fix any little issue for real, then I would have probably never have gotten anything done like most others.

I only know that my game runs fine with that version of Torque, well relatively fine as they are errors that make it not run anymore in Debug mode, but I stopped bothering.

In short I have no idea where your issue comes from, the version runs fine for me and I have water planes in most of my levels.

Is that still the case now?

I'd used a development version of 3.10.1. The stable Version does not have this problem. I'm switching to Preview 4 at the moment because the 3.10.1 (dev) water is broken. Sorry for the confusion.

No worries
