Answer 2

I use vs.net 2002 a while ago... seriously i am not that sure whether the new directx sdk can works with vs.net 2002... but i know it is working entirely fine on vs.net 2003 and .net framework 1.1 integrated to it... Probably you can choose other alternatives to code DirectX. Or you can purchase at least vs.net 2003 professional or wait for the vs 2005 to be released later this year. Cheers.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Hi, You use .net framework 1.1 with vs.net 2002? As far as i know, vs.net 2002 --> .net framework 1.0 vs.net 2003 --> .net framework 1.1 and... An unhandled exception of type 'Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.InvalidCallException' occurred in microsoft.directx.direct3d.dll Additional information: Error in the application. --> Do you mean you write a simple direct3d application, and it can't compile? That is the error you get? Cheers.

Answer 5

now i downloaded .net framework 1.1, and the exception changed to :- An unhandled exception of type 'Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.InvalidCallException' occurred in microsoft.directx.direct3d.dll Additional information: Error in the application.

Answer 6

Hi, I think you need vs.net 2003 and .net 1.1 to use managed Directx 9... well i can be wrong... Can you look at the directx9 sdk requirements? Cheers.
