Super-Magician Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 (edited) So...Microsoft's come out with a new DirectX SDK. Will HFSLIP slipstream this extra *bloat*, or will it need to be modified first?-- Super-Magician Edit: Never mind, found the answer. By the way, what are the other dated CAB files in the redistributable for (this doesn't include the x64 ones)? Examples are Oct2005_xinput_x86.cab and Feb2006_MDX1_x86.cab.

Tomcat76 Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 (edited) Only the *d3dx9* files are of importance for the moment. These are used for the preprocessing of shaders and game developers are taking advantage of this already. The XInput technology doesn't seem to have as much impact for the moment. At least, noone here asked to include it yet citing "a game" that requires it. It's supposed to replace DirectInput in the long run.I don't know about the new file. It's another new thing, apparantly.Edit: just add in the Feb2006_d3dx9_29_x86.cab file; it's gonna be processed by HFSLIP.

Aluminum Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 If I can be annoying, I'd like to ask that those other 2 files get slipstreamed too I can't cite a tangible need for them yet though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suryad Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 This is an SDK...so there is possibly no relation with gaming performance increases for a person who is just interested in getting the latest DX version for gaming? Am I right? Or wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 The Redist was released a day earlier. This topic is a bit confusing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Magician Posted February 9, 2006 Author Share Posted February 9, 2006 Yes, I meant the Redist when I first posted. -- Super-Magician Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
