Irrlicht Compile in Devcpp with Directx14

Post by r3i »

IN file readme:
"settings and something like -ld3dx9 -ld3dx8 to the linker settings and
press 'compile'."

SOMETHING LIKE???

Can someone help me telling the appropriate names of the settings above?

I think it just says "something like" to suggest you only need to use whichever one(s) you are conmpiling with.
If you are not supporting dx8, then obviously you won't need to link to it.

It does sound kinda vague though, doesn't it?

:) yeah.... I've tried but doesnt work: the right maybe are -ld3d8 and
-ld3d9 ... but i don't know exactly: I'm trying to rebuild irrlicht with DevCpp following some steps of a guy who made it for Irr version 0.9

but it seems that I make some mistakes and it output a linker error on Zlib.h
