How do you load a DX8 .x mesh file
My 3D modelling program (Blender) exports to DX8 format or just .X.
I don't know what the difference is.
I tried it with the same code as for one of the meshes that came with the SDK, but it just gives an error.

I just downloaded the v2.37a of blender, ran it and exported the box that is initially created on the screen to .x format (i.e. I did nothing but run blender and choose export)
Double clicked the .x file and it opened the DirectX viewer (October SDK).
Maybe try that simple test and then work out what you did in blender that made the shape not export quite so well.

I tried using the Meshviewer but it can't open them either, so I guess its just not a very good export script.
I tried both DX8 and just .X exports, but neither worked.
Well, at least I know what the problem is not.

I'll get the newer SDK next time I'm at my friends house. (he has cable, I don't >.<)

Which version of the SDK are you using
