Excuse my ignorance but... I am trying to compile the first sample program from the "DX8 A Fresh Start" tutorial, it wants a lib called "nafxcwd.lib" and gives me this error:

dxtest.cpp Linking... LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "nafxcwd.lib" Error executing link.exe. DXTest.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

I have done a search on my drives for this file and its no-where to be found, can someone tell me what its for, where I can get it, and if I really do need it or can I bypass it? Cheers all, Max

What kind of compiler options/project did you setup?? It almost looks like it''s looking for an MFC library to me...

I''ve never heard of "Dx8 a Fresh Start"...where can I find it??

Wazoo

Just to make sure that wasn''t the case I made my own project, the Win32 application project.

You can find the "Direct X 8.0 A Fresh Start" Tutorial in the GameDev article archives under the programming section, it seems a really good tutorial, I probably just can''t get it to work coz I''m stupid...

Any further help welcome!
