How do you set up Dev for use with DX8. I have set the directories to be searched for libs includes and bins and I have the include statement in the source code but I'm still getting errors I've have checked the book i'm using and their set up is much more involved but written for MSVC++ can any one help here are there project files available in devc++ written with DX8

2. Make sure you have the right package, e.g. "http://www.gamap.cz/tutors/directx/download/dx4devc.zip" in your case
3. check that all the files from the package are in the correct directories and double-check that you specified these directories correctly in the compiler/linker/include-options
4. What error messages did you get? You probably won't get any useful help unless you exactly specify what doesn't work (i.e. can't you compile programs, does the linker give errors, or can't you run the compiled programs, etc) and what error messages you got.
