Thanks for the clarification Darien - my working assumption TankMaster is that those libs/headers are pulled in via some CMake magic - I'll go check to see if that's the case. On Wed, Jan 28, 2015 at 1:25 PM, Tank Master wrote: > As far as I know, it is only used to detect the GPU name in window

As far as I know, it is only used to detect the GPU name in windows. Also, if the compile IS using the DX 2010 SDK, there is no documentation on modifying VS2013 to point to it, which make me wonder if the build environment is even using the files, let alone seeing them. ~TM Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2

The windows 8.1 version of the DirectX SDK removes the D3DX* library and changes XNAMath to DirectXMath, so if you use either from those namespaces, it's not going to work. I don't know exactly what the viewer is using DirectX for, but as long as it's not using anything from the removed/renamed li

Thank you Jonathan - you're right - there should be more notes on how to download and configure the Community version. For the Pro version we use here, I note in the doc that "Uncheck all the "Optional features to install:" - they are not required" - the same sort of thing along with notes on the

A few things I noticed right off: None of the "right click and run as administrator" is needed; when the installer needs admin rights to install, it will prompt to do so. DX SDK 2010 is not used if you are using the windows 8 SDK or higher (DX SDK is integrated into windows SDK 8.0 and higher);
