Title: directX version 8 libraries and include files for masm32 V8.2
Post by: edkedk on May 16, 2005, 02:38:46 PM
Hi programmers,

I really want to upgrade to the DirectX 8 libraries and includes for MASM32 V8.2.
Especially for all DirectInput, DirectDraw and DirectSound functions.
Anyone have a solution how I can get those files?

I guess a start would be to get the DirectX development kit for Dx8?
But how to convert all the necessery files so I can use them in asm source with masm32 v8.2 ?
For example, I want to use the INVOKE directive with parameters in masm32 to call a nessecary DirectX API function.
I think the format is C/C++ ???

At this time I have a working environment for Dx5, but I really want to upgrade to Dx8. (Dx7 would be ok also, but Dx8 preferable).
Hopefully someone can help me on this issue?

I will use it for further development of my own C64 emulator with masm32.

Thanks in advance.

Greetings,

If someone has the link to Scronty's site, you will get a lot of info in that direction. Phil did a lot of work on this subjecxt while he had the time.
