I just trying to compile Irrlicht to have my own compiled irrlicht and try to make that found with DirectX8+DevCpp.
In other Topics there are some bague instructions on how to do this, so following this instruction and some of my personal modifications, i am trying to get it work, but i have some little errors.
the step y follow are:
1) UnZip the Source of irrlicht.
2) Open with DevCpp the file called Irrlicht.dev
3) In Project Options select the tab folder or something like this (i have this in spanish).
4) There are 3 SubTabs. Here there are some configuration of the developer and it dont work for own PC, so we need change this.
In "Library folder", First remove the 2 entries clicking in "remove", and clic in "..." at right of the EditBox, find the source folder and on it there are 3 other folders, select jpeglib and press OK.
We will see the path in the EditBox, now press Add.
Repeat the step with the folder zlib.
5) Now in the SubTab "Include Folders", remove the solitary entry and repeat the last step with the folder "Include".
6) Now select the Tab "Parameters" and in "link" we will see an string, just add "-ld3d8 -ld3dx8d" in the end of it string.
7) Accept this changes.
9) comment the lines 23 to 25
10) Add after this :
#if defined(_WIN32)
#define _IRR_COMPILE_WITH_DIRECTX_8_
#endif
11) Open The file dxfile.h and in the end of it remove the symbol
12) Save all changes and try to compile.
I only have the next errors but i dont know what i have to do.
