DXFramework

The new place for DXFramework help and discussion is here.

There is a very simple but critical bug in the 0.9.7 release configurations. Make the following change to fix the issue:

1. open your project’s properties dialog
2. set “Configuration” to Release
3. open the dialog: configuration properties -> linker -> input
4. click the … button to view the Additional Dependencies setting
5. find and change “d3dx9d.lib” to “d3dx9.lib” (remove the d)
6. save (apply) changes and rebuild if necessary

Make this change to any projects you would like to release. It is also a good idea to make the change to the template project so any future projects will have the change.

I’ve generated the Doxygen documentation files for 0.9.7. Please let me know if you spot any problems.

The high-level walkthrough I presented at Microsoft Academic Days is now available on our wiki.

The final version of the Tank game code is available on the CD passed out at the conference, and will be available in the next release of DXFramework.

A note about the student demos included on the CD: if you get a DLL error when running these applications, try installing the DirectX update available here.

Do not forget to check out our getting started guide and FAQ page on the Wiki.

More updates coming soon, feel free to contact me in the mean time with any questions you may have.

The new home for DXFramework documentation on the web is the DXFramework wiki. Information is sparse at the moment, but will be fleshed out in the next few weeks. Please post in the forums in the mean time if you have questions about the framework.
