Hi guys,
alot of people are having problems getting DirectX 9 to work in irrlicht, so I've recompiled it with DirectX 9 support. I used CodeBlocks with Mingw32
you can download the lib and dll from:

Hi Virtualx,
Thankyou very much for writing that tutorial, it's something I've been needing for a while! I do seem to be having one problem though, and wondered if you faced a similar problem. During compilation I'm getting the errors:
CD3D9ShaderMaterialRenderer.cpp undefined reference to 'D3DXAssembleShader@28'
CD3D9ShaderMaterialRenderer.cpp undefined reference to 'D3DXAssembleShader@28'
CD3D9ShaderMaterialRenderer.cpp undefined reference to 'D3DXAssembleShader@28'
CD3D9ShaderMaterialRenderer.cpp undefined reference to 'D3DXAssembleShaderFromFileA@24'
CD3D9ShaderMaterialRenderer.cpp undefined reference to 'D3DXCompileShader@40'
Both the include file and the d3dx9.lib file containing these troublesome functions are included and linked as described in the tutorial, so I'm a bit unsure as to why they can't be found.

Hmm... to be honest with you I'm not too sure why, I used the Feb 2007 DirectX SDK, perhaps Irrlicht 1.3 was developed with a slightly older directx sdk and something was either added or changed in the new one, that's all I can think of really. I tested the DLL with alll the examples and they worked fine, so I wouldn't worry to much until you start using shaders lol.
sorry I couldn't be of anymore help
