Troubles with DirectX 8.0
« on: April 05, 2006, 05:16:07 PM »

I tried to run any game created by WinterMute Engine 1.6beta2 and got an error that cedega requires DirectX 8.0. In version 1.5.2 it's OK. It's so pity. It's really that Cedega don't support DirectX 8.0?

WME 1.6 requires the d3dxof.dll file, which is part of DirectX. Cedega probably doesn't include the dll. You might try copying the windows dll to your linux cedega folder to see if it helps. It might work.

I have no Windows, but I downloaded d3dxof.dll from this site: http://www.down-dll.com/ Now, it works.
Thanks, Mnemonic.  :)
