Hello, I've installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2008, Microsoft’s DirectX 9.0c SDK from August 2007 and Dark GDK.
But when I'm in Visual C++ and creating a new project the column "Wizards" doesn't exist, so I can't use the Dark GDK.

Before installing the Dark GDK it says I need to use Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 compiler at least once. So if that's the problem, then how to do that?

Oops... Wrong board, I think! I think you're after "Dark GDK", two boards below this one...

But in answer to your question: All you have to do is is open Microsoft Visual C++. On your first run, you should see a dialogue box saying something about initialising or preparing settings. (I can't remember the exact wording, it's a while since I installed DGDK). That message box will never appear again, but if it has been shown then you're safe to install DGDK and then you'll get access to the 2d/3d game wizards.

Hope this helps!

Oh, sorry for posting in the wrong board then
Well, then that means that I've done that (opened the first run) but it still doesn't work (It's not showing in the "New Project")
Is there anything else I should do like put my Dark GDK folder to Microsoft Visual C++ Folder or something?

All I did was that I installed everything in the default folder, but doesn't work :/
