Compiling rts pack and....... d3dx.lib linking error

by Linhart Walter · in Torque Game Engine · 08/30/2005 (11:49 pm) · 6 replies

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "d3dx.lib" comes up when I compile, this is probably somethign simple that I'm missing, I made sure to include (what I think are) the right dependencies....
I'm using vc++ 6 on xp to compile... any ideas?

You shouldn't need d3dx to compile the RTS pack. Have you tried removing it from the linker settings?

Do you use Visual Studio < 7?
If so, you need DirectX SDK to compile even TGE (at least version 8, included in Visual Studio >= 7).

Bye, Berserk.

But the direct X SDK is included with TGE...
