Just installed and don't have nor plans to install D3D8 and need to know how to use D3D9.

So far the only complie error I'm getting is:
"Cannot open include file: 'd3d8.h': No such file or directory"

Do I have to install D3D8?

There should be a config option in IrrCompileConfig or something of the like, that lets you turn off compilation of d3d8

I'm running the 1.7.1 under VS 2008 v9 and so far I can not find any switches or config files that will allow me to turn of the D3D8 compile.

Can anyone show me exactly where this switch is? Anyone running Win7 and VS 2008 v9?
