Hi,
I download Dark GDK and download Nov 2008 update and installed them, i started by Game2d template then when trying compile the sample it gave me this output:

------ Build started: Project: Dark GDK - 2D Game1, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
Linking...
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file \'dplayx.lib\'
Build log was saved at \"file://c:\\Users\\iammfa\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2008\\Projects\\Dark GDK - 2D Game1\\Debug\\BuildLog.htm\"
Dark GDK - 2D Game1 - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

although i installed the following:
- MS C++ 2008 express
- DirectX Nov 2008
- Dark GDK for directX Nov 2007 first
- Dark GDK update Nov 2008

where is my wrong here ..?

umm, don't quote me on this, but i think you need august 2007, not november.

also, you need to place certain sourcepaths in the tools->options menu. there should be a pdf.

if not, just do the following

go to tools->options->projects and solutions->vc++ directories->
(if you are running vista)
include files-> add "c:\program files\microsoft directx sdk (august 2007)\include" " without quotes

library files->
add
"c:\program files\mircosoft directx sdk (august 2007)\lib\x86"
and
"c:\program files\the game creators\dark gdk\lib\vs9"
without quotes.

if you are running xp, i dont know the exact source path, but you should be able to figure it out. just find where you put the directx and the game creators files, and do the above.

best of luck.
