Hi,

I' am having problem compiling this program.
I'm using sdk 2010 and c#. I'm using Visual Studio 2008.
The program is in the attachement.

It's reporting errors in the InitalizeGraphics function.

Wrong device parameters.

Thank you for your help.

Hi CyberFog. Don't take any offense, please, but I'm not in the habit of downloading files from an unknown source. Can you do me a favor and paste the offending code and what you think is relevant to that code in a post? Just wrap it in code tags (the hash button) in the menu bar please. We'll see if we can help you out.

Hi ckphili,

No offense taken .

using Microsoft.DirectX;
using Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Windows.Forms;


namespace programd3d
{

    class Program
    {

        private Device device = null;

         


        public void InitializeGraphics()
        {

            PresentParameters presentParams = new PresentParameters();

            presentParams.Windowed = true;
            presentParams.SwapEffect = SwapEffect.Discard;

            device = new Device(0, DeviceType.Hardware, this,                      <------------ this is line 28  responsible for errors
            CreateFlags.SoftwareVertexProcessing, presentParams);             <------------ this is line 29 resonsible for errors 
           

        }


        static void Main()
        {

            using (Form1 frm = new Form1())
            {

                frm.Show();
                frm.InitializeGraphics();
                Application.EnableVisualStyles();
                Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
                Application.Run(frm);

            }

        }

    }
}

And these are the three error codes.


Error 1 The best overloaded method match for 'Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.Device.Device(int, Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.DeviceType, System.IntPtr, Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.CreateFlags, params Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.PresentParameters[])' has some invalid arguments C:\Users\Barichke\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\programd3d\programd3d\Program.cs 28

Hey I'll be honest Cyber, I have no idea here as I haven't dealt with this. Glad you posted the code so if someone does, they can help.

But general debugging: check out the parameters. Change them, see if you can get a heartbeat.

Also, if you downloaded this code (I have no idea if you wrote it or found it) dig around for some other examples.

Make sure you have all the components installed on your machine to make this work as well.

Sorry I can't give you anything solid, but good luck.
