:confused: I am using VS6 w/sp6. When I compile I get 24 : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: '..\Dxsdk81\include\dinput.h': No such file or directory....I am guessing that it is looking for Direct X 8.1. I have 9c on my machine. Will that not work or do I need to get a copy of 9c sdk? If so can I find this at ms' site?
:confused:

Your answer is there. And here's a cut/Paste if you don't have access there.

dinput.h was taken from the The Microsoft DirectX 8.1b Software Development Kit

The full SDK is available from www.microsoft.com


You can either go the long route and install the SDK, which wouldn't solve your problem , or just fix the include reference

Code:
#include "..\Dxsdk81\include\dinput.h"


make sure the dXsdk81 folder was created when you unzipped the source too.

It's in the zip. If it's not being created you're using a crappy unzipper or using it incorrectly.
