Irrlicht->Dev-C++->DX8 problem

Tequilla · Post by **Tequilla** » Wed Nov 12, 2003 9:42 am

Hmm... I can't build the irrlicht.dll
Compiling works fine (after removing several includes, which are included twice or more), but in the end i get an error in makefile.win without giving me any reason:
[Build Error] [irrlicht.dll] Error 1

What does it mean??

Ha! Everything's fine

I forgot to remove a " in the link-options

Oups, i forgot to log in to write the last post... I am the guest

If it's ok for Niko, I'll build the DLL for Irrlicht 0.4.1 and upload it on my server for all, who can't build it.

Irrlicht.dll (0.4.1) for DevCPP with DirectX-Support (please update your engine to 0.4.1 before using this dll):
http://www.oliverheaven.de/downloads/Irrlicht.dll

By the way: Respect to Niko for the nice code! It's compiled without any error or warning... It's just perfect!

i have had the same probs i can compile the directx stuff but whenever it run it crashes i have just been using opengl until i figure out what is wrong

Are you compiling with Irrlicht 0.4.1 and DevCPP?
When yes, it should be no problem... I tried it out on several PCs without any problems

Compiled app in Dev-C++ with DX couldn't work well in my case.
First it asked d3dx8d.dll. Ok, I find it and paste into the app's dir. But now it simply says:
---------
The procedure entry point
_ZN3irr12createDeviceENS_5video11EDriverTypeERKNS_4core11dimension2... dIiEEjbbPNS_14IEventReceiverEPKw could not be located in the dynamic link library Irrlucht.dll
---------
Maybe it's necessary to set some flags in compiller? (I use mingw32, Dev-C++ ver 4.9.8.0, DirectX9 package installed)

Irrlucht.dll???. Maybe somethings is wrong there. Otherwise be sure no directx9 stuff mixes with irrlicht, though I sincerely think this is not the cause
Good luck!

When the DirectX-enhanced dll was created, it also produced a new libIllricht.a, which you need to compile with to have your programs working properly with the new dll.

Hmm.. I didn't need the new library...
