Re: Advice needed throughout my first 3D project
Surprisingly enough, I solved this problem by installing DirectX 9. I already had v11 installed but it seems that PB, or Ogre, relies on v9.

....Try also Compiler Options/Library Subsystem: OpenGL
DX9c is the highest supported by Windows XP, so maybe that's an Ogre thing. OpenGL on the other hand works with most OS.

DirectX 11 is not an update of dx10 and dx10 is NOT an update of dx9.
These 3 DirectX are not the same and should be all installed (min. Win Vista)

Re: Advice needed throughout my first 3D project
Thanks for asking, IV. I'm sorry to tell you that I've had to abandon the project for now. There are just too many things on my plate and this one isn't top priority. My aim was to put the triangulation and other code into Tips & Tricks, as separate code-bases, and I will still do that if I ever return to the project and finish it.
