Compiling Irrlicht problem...

When I try to compile Irrlicht.dll I get a warning that says DX9 mode will be dissabled and an error which says it can't find something like dx8.h... I think that was the name of the header file..

You need the directX sdk. Not the current version, it doesn't include directX 8. If you don't need DX 8, just comment it out.

Where can I find the right DX SDK?

In case that you it wants to compile the IRRLICHT with support to the DirectX, already a ready DevPack for the DevCPP exists.

For download in its proper system of Downloads de Packs. It looks in the cession 3D Graphics. In case that M$ VC is using, it is enough to have DirectX SDK installed and configured correctly.
