- DirectX 9 REF Rasterizer DDK
- Posted by c0d1f1ed on July 24th, 2003
Hi,
Is the DirectX 9 DDK available for download somewhere? I could only
find the DirectX 7 DDK. Is there are reason why the DirectX 9 DDK
isn't on the Microsoft website?
I would like to know how to create my own device, so the REF source
code would be ideal. Also detailed information about
IDirect3D9::RegisterSoftwareDevice could be sufficient. If anyone
knows where to find these or could mail them to me that would be
awesome: nicolas@capens.net.
Kind regards,
Nicolas Capens

Strange, but it is not available for download from anywhere. Not even from
MSDN subscriber downloads page.
There's been a public outcry from developers to MS so that they make it
availble somewhere. All to no avail.
The only place to get it that I am aware of is DX DDK Beta site.
If you don't have access to it, you are out of luck.

I've read at the Microsoft site that "DirectX 8 DDK is part of the
Windows DDK". Maybe DirectX 9 DDK is also part of the newest Windows
DDK? Thanks.

At least not yet.
I have not heard of any plans to have DX9 DDK content to be available in
Windows DDK, but it would sound very much reasonable if MS decided to do so.
At this point however it is not there.
Some DX9 DDK samples are not included in Windows DDK as well as
documentation (maybe libs and headers too, I don't know).

Ok, thanks!
I've contacted Microsoft and some others to see if I could get a peek
at just the REF implementation...
