Hi,

Anyone have drak PhysX GDK going, as I not been able to make it go.

Dark GDK a\nd Dark AI GDK run fine but cannot gett physX to go.

using the 7.3 updates, plus also have the physX update that mike sent me but still not able to get it to run.

if anyone has got it going what do you have in the linker box?

and this what in the linker ignore box.

I had the same problem was a nightmare to get going.

Go to Tools->Options->VC++ Directorys then select Include files from the drop down menu and add these paths.

Replace (NvidiaSDK) with your SDK path

(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\Graphics
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\SDKs\Cooking\include
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\SDKs\Foundation\include
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\SDKs\NxCharacter\include
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\SDKs\Physics\include
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\SDKs\PhysXLoader\include

Now select Library files from the drop down menu and add these

(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\Graphics
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\SDKs\lib
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\SDKs\lib\Win32
(NvidiaSDK)\v2.8.1\Graphics\lib\win32\glut
/DEBUG PhysXLoader.lib

Now go to Project Properties->Configuration properties->linker->Input

In Additional Dependencies add DarkPhysics.lib
In Ignore Specific Library add LIBCMTD.lib,msvcprtd.lib, atls, libcpmtd

You will also have to copy and paste the 4 dll files in the samples folder to your debug folder for your project.

The only limit to creating video games is your imagination

Thanks for your help DarthVader 335 , however I must have some other part tick clicked that is stooping run physX as AI and GDK work ok.

And I would have thought that the h and lib files of dark PhysX where the bit that told the complier where to get the sdk files.
