• dundask (C++) DXUT & ID3DXMesh not rendering. Also crash in dxutenum.

  Hi, I was reading over the DX documentation for C++ and came across the DXUT framework. Thus, I gave it a try and whipped up an example using their VS.NET project installer. The example is basically the mesh tutorial. The problem is that the mesh does not render on screen. I have played with  many parameters such as the view matrix and far clipping plane, however, nothing has prevailed. Also, the solution compiles with no errors/wa ...Show All

Neither of these things compile for me in VS.NET 2003 with DirectX 9. I can't seem to find anything at all on the utility function, and damn little on DirectXTimer. Obviously these things have become defunct, but what has taken their place Where should I be looking ...Show All
