I actually had a problem, but reinstalling the DX SDK fixed it.

Uninstall, then reinstall DX 8.1 let me compile, yay!

That is odd, never had an issue. what platform are you using (95/98/ME/2K/XP?)
I installed RE on a XP machine with DX 8.1 installed prior to RE and all went smooth, even tossed it on a XP with DX 9 installed from to RE and it worked.

please provide some specifics so we can look into this further to see if this is a isolated case

I think it was isolated. reinstalling the DX SDK fixed it. Apparently, the other DX project I have didn't need all the settings that a proper install did.

Mostly, I was just being silly to get the first post in, sorry if I was unclear. It DOES work now :)

no prob :) just wanted to make sure it was isolated or not. would hate to see it hit the masses and have an installer or some other problem.

I think it's ok.

Keep it in your box of tricks for support though, might be a borked Direct X SDK install if people yell about problems :)

Glad to hear the problem resolved itself.

Keep them coming. I'll try to fix and address issues as soon as they come in.
