FxTextObject2D and window creation

Ok, it's me again. This is driving me nuts. I'm using the fxTextObject2D resource and for some reason when I set the text, the rendering window is coming up as NULL, even though as far as I can tell, it should be active.

Here's how the code is getting called in client.cs:

function setupT2DScene()
{
	...
	
	// ************************************************************************
	//
	// Add your custom code here...
	//
	// ************************************************************************
	
	createPlayer();
	[b]createGameStatus();[/b]
}

Ok, now the createGameStatus() function:

function createGameStatus()
{
	%score = new fxTextObject2D() { scenegraph = t2dSceneGraph; };
	
	%score.setFont( "Edit Undo Line BRK" );
	%score.setSize( 24 );
	
	%score.setPosition("-50 -36");
	[b]%score.setTextAlignLeft( "SCORE" SPC 120000 );[/b]
	%score.setFontColor("255 255 64 255");
}

Ok, and finally, I here's the C++ setTextAlignLeft(). Note that I've combined setText() with updateSize() for testing purposes:

void fxTextObject2D::setTextAlignLeft( const char *text)
{
	mTextString = StringTable->insert( text );

	fxSceneWindow2D *window = Parent::getSceneGraph()->getCurrentRenderWindow();

	// we don't have a render window yet, this requres it so wait until we do
	[b]if(!window ) {
		Con::printf( "setTextAlignLeft(): WARNING: WINDOW IS NULL");
		return;
	}[/b]

	mStringFontSize.x=mpFont->getStrWidth(mTextString);
	mStringFontSize.y=mpFont->getHeight();
	
	// we need to convert the size from window to scene
	Point2F cameraScale=window->getCurrentCameraScale();
	Parent::setSize(fxVector2D(cameraScale.x*mStringFontSize.x,cameraScale.y*mStringFontSize.y ));

	// adjust the position accordingly to align the text
	Parent::setPosition( fxVector2D(getPosition().mX + (getSize().mX / 2), getPosition().mY) );
}

Now, for some reason, the window is coming up as null. As far as I can tell, the window should currently be active, correct? Does anybody have any idea why this is happening?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
