Problem with directx

Post by Josepho »

In the examples when I choose in the driver options, a or b, it doens run

In the console, I can see this error:

Engine version 0.7
Windows xp professional service pack 2 (build 2600)
Driver was not compiled into this dll. Try openGL
Build not load buit-in font

If i use opengl it runs correctly but I want to use directx.. I have a Geforce 6800 gt, and I have directx installed...

Ah, but did you compile it in Dev-C++ without having the DirectX DevPak installed? This would probably give you the error you're describing.

Are you sure your flags are ok in irrlicht.h? Did you define that everything is compiled?

Dev pack is not enough ...you have to recompile Irrlicht.dll and use it instead of old one.

Also d3dx8d.dll or d3dx9d.dll have to be in your path.
