Failed to find d3dx8dll.dll error

by Nabarro · in Torque 3D Professional · 07/09/2009 (4:04 am) · 4 replies

I tried to make it run on DirectX8 device, but it had one error: "Failed to find d3dx8dll.dll".
Where to get d3dx8dll.dll? Does Torque 3D run normally on some low-end computer(for example, without DirectX9 or without shader support)?

Could anyone please give some tips or instructions? Very appreciated.

Sorry, it seems that there isn't d3dx8dll.dll file. I've searched it from internet and got no result. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks a lot.

I've tested T3D on an old P4 + Ati R360(sm2.0),DirectX 9 installed and it works only in basic lightning.
I found an information,that points d3dx8d.dll and d3dx8dll.dll is the same.

DX8 support is not in anymore in Beta3. That could be the source of the problem.
