hi folks, spent some time getting irrlicht to compile on my old win2k via
the supplied makefile from msys, here's what i had to do:
for dx9 grab the dx9sdk devpak, devpaks are simple bzip tar so you
simply extract the contents into your mingw dir without having to use
dev-c++.
alas the makefile has no option to disable the dx8 renderer, so you
need to grab the minimal dx8 mingw pak as well and in the makefile
at #Windows sharedlib options add -ld3dx8d after -ld3dx9d
That's all.
now have fun with your march=native irrlicht build
