   Directx 8.1
  Is there any place that you can still get directx 8.1? Thanks in advance.   
  Microsoft sure does make it a serious pain in the ass to get anything less than current versions on their website.  It takes some digging.DirectX 8.1 runtimeI downloaded the DX8.1 sdk fairly recently but I can't for the life of me find it anymore.  The extras are still available but not the sdk as far as I can tell.  I might have it at work.  If you want, PM me your email address and I can send it to you via YouSendIt.com;  Ever heard of the IndieWiki?http://www.indiewiki.net/directx/They've got a great archive of every version of the SDK (well DX3.0 and upwards anyways).hth,   ;  Also, don't forget  this  site.Good luck.Btw, thanks TheOther, these are pretty good archives. ^_^   ;Quote:Original post by Skeleton_V@TBtw, thanks TheOther, these are pretty good archives. ^_^No problems!I know over the years the SDK's that have come with the game programming books in my closest have been scratched fairly harshly.I did remember googling around the microsoft.com site a few months ago though and finding some old example code using WinG (remember THAT puppy?!) on their old ftp server.Unfortunately, the library wasn't there. It would've been neat to play with again, or at least post it up on the IndieWiki for archival purposes.Oh well...
