DirectX9

I need to use the DirectX9 but apparently it isnt compiled into the current visual c++ dll. I dont have any way of downloading the directx9 sdk so I can compile it myself so I was wondering if anyone that has those two things can send me a copy of an irrlicht dll with dx9. my email address: rockbottomdevelopment@gmail.com

Thanks guys.

I believe irrlicht dll is compiled with dx9.. you want the dx9 SDK? that§s not a file that can be sent vie email

Im not stupid. I know directx 9 sdk isnt a single file that can be sent. I also know that it would take a week or two to download it on a dialup connection

. I thought the irrlicht dll had dx9 compiled in it but when I tried using it as the video driver, it said the DirectX9 drivers werent compiled into the dll. I was using the one straight out of the irrlicht zip.

If you are using Visual C++ DX9 support *should* be in there.
With DevC++ it is not and would need to recompile the Irrlicht.dll.
What compiler are you using?

Are you using the correct dll??
win32-gcc is dev-cpp and no directX.
win32-VisualStudio or win64-VisualStudio both have directX compiled.
