Directx 5.0 setup

Is there a DirectX 3. I don't know how to check it since it doesn't have dxdiag, and i could only find DirectX 3. Is there a DirectX 5. EDIT: Sorry, forgot the tag in the title. Stephen Elop…. I curse you, that after your death your soul will be forever trapped in the sourcecode of Windows and one day Microsoft will fall because of that virus code!

There's one very important difference! No Borland compatible lib files in the dxsdk. Must've been an oversight in Microsoft's setup. So, if don't have the Borland libs and you don't have the dx5sdk Borland lib directory any more, you need to run dx5eng.

Note: If you haven't run the setup program in the dx5sdk, you haven't completed installation of the dx5 SDK! Running the setup program in the dx5sdk directory will create another directory tree rooted at dxsdk vs.

If you have some of your own stuff in the dx5sdk directories make sure you transfer whatever you want to use into the newly created dxsdk directory and subdirectories. For sure, copy the Borland compatible libraries as described above. Following the setup, you can delete the dx5sdk directory and all its subdirectories to avoid a lot of extra disk space taken up with duplicate files. Problem : DirectX 5. DirectX library error handlers and Borland default error handlers are apparently incompatible.

The errors I encountered that occurred only outside the IDE disappeared when I added the error handler actually an error disabler.

Add code similar or identical if you want to that below to one of the modules in your project. Somewhere in the initialization WinMain, before the message loop, is a good choice , before any DirectX functions are called, call initfp. That's it. Originally posted by ReiKaz :.
