Finally, a DirectX 10 video driver for Irrlicht

[Nadro]

D3D11 driver is available in shader-pipeline branch.

[robmar]

So is there one link where I can download Irrlich x.x + D3D11?

[Nadro]

http://sourceforge.net/p/irrlicht/code/ ... -pipeline/
You can 'download snapshot' from above link.

[robmar]

Okay thanks, so the snapshot is the whole package, will give it a go!

[AReichl]

Peeeeerfect!
I still cannot compile shader-pipeline with mingw (unless of course i disable DirectX11).
It's no problem of yours, Nadro; i only mention it.
I found some solutions for DirectX11 and gcc/mingw, but they don't work for me, even
if i follow every step to the letter.
Anyone any ideas?

[Granyte]

Wait you guys integrated the dropbox files I posted in the svn?

[Nadro]

Do you mean files uploaded by you on dropbox? Changes available in those files are integrated partially.

[Granyte]

oh that's cool I didn't expect this to be integrated until I cleaned it up I'll try to catch up to the lasts rev this week end and split the remaining changes in clean patches

[airc]

i successfully built it with tdm-gcc 4.7.2 , but after some modifications of both irrlich and dx11 headers
when i have time , i'll collect the steps and put it here

[AReichl]

I use "mingw-64" (64 is only the name, they also have 32 bit).
URL=http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w ... gw-builds/
The "distribution" contains DirectX11 headers/libs, but probably not totally compatible with the Microsoft files or what Nadro uses.
If i include the Microsoft headers, it's even worse.
So yes please collect your steps and put them here.

[robmar]

OMG, before Irrlicht dies a complete death, can we get this together?

[airc]

well , in order to get irrlicht+dx11 compiled with gcc you have to :
1 - download DXSDK_Jun10 , install it
2 - define its include and lib directory to CodeBlocks
3 - create gcc_d3d11.h , and fill it with :

#define __in
#define __out
#define __inout
#define __in_bcount(x)
#define __out_bcount(x)
#define __in_ecount(x)
#define __out_ecount(x)
#define __in_ecount_opt(x)
#define __out_ecount_opt(x)
#define __in_bcount_opt(x)
#define __out_bcount_opt(x)
#define __in_opt
#define __inout_opt
#define __out_opt
#define __out_ecount_part_opt(x,y)
#define __deref_out
#define __deref_out_opt
#define __RPC__deref_out

#include <d3d11.h> //from D3D SDK
#include <d3dx11.h>
#include <d3dcompiler.h>
#ifdef __uuidof
#undef __uuidof
#endif

4 - put this file in irrlicht include directory or DXSDK_Jun10 include directory
5 - open codeblocks and import Irrlicht11.0.sln solution , click ok , choose Release-Fast FPU Win32
6 - open IrrCompileConfig.h --> line 162 --> remove gcc define
7 - replace every #include<d3d11.h> in irrlicht source by #include<gcc_d3d11.h> which we created already
8 - open CD3DDriver11.cpp and replace every __uuidof with the appropriate IID (e.g __uuidof(ID3D11Texture2D) becomes IID_ID3D11Texture2D )
9 - open CD3DDriver11.cpp and replace line 339 and 340 by :
char tmp[512];
sprintf(tmp, "%s Rev. %d", adapDesc.Description, adapDesc.Revision);
10- add d3d11.lib , d3dx11.lib , d3d9.lib , d3dx9.lib , dinput8.lib , dxguid.lib to the linker
11 - Build ( don't forget to check strip all symbols in the project options dialog ) .

hope thats all

[airc]

i run the demo example with d3d11 driver but there is a graphic glitch , with d3d9 all works ok .
can some one please put the binaray of this demo compiled with MSVC , so i can check if its because of gcc mess or not ?

[Nadro]

I have the same issues when binary is builded in Debug mode. In Release mode all works fine.

[airc]

i build it without debug info .
i'll try to debug it later
