Hi. I've been trying to install this and I've been getting a few issues.

First It said I needed to install the 2007 DirectX 9c SDK... So I did. And after that, it Still said it didn't see it.

But it let me go ahead and install it. Then when I re-opened Visual studio (I already opened it before to set it up) I didn't see any of the dark GDK templates or anything. I reinstalled Dark GDK and the DX9cSDK07 and still no dice. Maybe I'll try reinstalling visual 2008 too?

A note, I have Visual, DX9SDK, and Dark GDK installed on a different drive, but does that really matter? Everything in visual works just fine, but the Dark GDK stuff just doesn't show up at all and that's really start to get irritating as I've set things up right... or at least I think I did. Did anyone else have this problem?

I reinstalled it but still no luck. Is there some way to manually point Visual Studio to where the Dark GDK files are?

bump...

Ok I found the project files, but now I'm wondering if Visual doesn't see them, do the project files themselves know where to get the .x files and things like that?

Because everytime I try to debug it it asks for an .exe file which is dumb because it has to make the EXE file.

Geez this is nuts. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Oh yeah. Like I said, I reinstalled and stuf. But I'd have to some how find away to 100% uninstall and then reinstall.I couldn't do taht before.
