Be sure to look at the instructions and Additional Information on the bottom of the page.

There are improvements over DirectX 8.1, but most users will do fine with running 8.1. Future games and hardware will obviously take better advantage of DirectX 9.

Select a location to which you want to save the dxwebsetup.exe file. We recommend that you save this file to your desktop.

Some users have had problems upgrading to DirectX 9. Before upgrading to DirectX 9 check with your hardware manufacturers for possible problems or incompatibilities with DirectX 9. Also you should be aware that if you do install DirectX 9 and problems occur, DirectX 9 cannot be uninstalled, and you may need to reformat your hard drive. If you are in any doubt whether your system can support DirectX 9, please continue to use DirectX 8.1.

It is difficult to describe DirectX in non-technical terms. DirectX is a set of software libraries that allow RCFS to gain high-performance access to your hardware, such as your graphics card, sound card and game port. DirectX helps standardize game programming for Windows. Several games and simulations are written to run on DirectX today. DirectX is written, maintained and provided by Microsoft.

Microsoft .NET is a software for connecting information, people, systems and devices. Its XML-based interoperatability allows all .NET based applications to communicate with each other. The .NET framework is an integral Windows component for developers that support building and running .NET applications. Microsoft DirectX is the standard development platform that enables software developers to access and utilize specialized hardware such as graphic and sound cards.

Apprentice applications run on any Windows-based computer, though the performance of the application can vary based on the complexity of the rules, the size of the database and the speed of the processor.

Initially on the client PC all that you will need is Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or higher. Once you navigate through your browser to the IntraVUE host computer (Server) the IntraVUE software will trigger the installation of Sun's Java Runtime Environment plug-in (JRE Version 1.4.2_01 or better), if it is not already installed. After the installation of the plug-in you must close all browser instances and then you are ready to use the IntraVUE client when you open the browser next.

Our testing seems to indicate that DirectX 6 is the minimum required. The best way to find out if Cuboingo™ will work with your version is to simply try it! If Cuboingo™ complains about DirectX, you can download the latest version of DirectX from Microsoft at www.microsoft.com/directx. Please note that installing DirectX, like installing drivers, can be risky. Make sure you back up all of your important data before attempting this.

Ladybug Mixer supports the latest DirectX 9.0c (2004 Summer Upgrade, 7/26/2004). To use Shader Model 3.0 or 2.0x, the DX9.0c is required. Although DX9.0b is supported, we suggest that you upgrade to DX9.0c for better performance and video quality. DX9.0c is pre-installed on Windows XP SP2 and Vista.

These features combine to deliver unparalleled levels of graphics realism and film-quality effects all rendered in real-time on the GPU.

More or less the same way you debug anything else. However, there are some useful DirectX-specific things I should mention here. First, the DirectX debug runtime can be configured to print out debugging messages, which are often extremely useful.

Right click on the Virtual city that is playing in Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator and under preferences - general preferences, please make sure the settings are as shown below: If your operating system is Windows 98, under Renderer, select DirectX Renderer as shown below. Select OpenGL Renderer in case DirectX Renderer is not present, R 98 Renderer, if both DirectX and OpenGL Renderer are not present in the settings.

Yes. The application calls Web services on servers at CTC. There is no off-line mode for the application.

Visual WebGui requires IIS installed and .NET1.1 or .NET2.0 installed. You also need to install a new ".wgx" script map in the IIS with the same definitions as the ".aspx" script map but you should remove the "check file exist" checkbox as Visual WebGui uses virtual pages.

Machine running Windows XP, 2000, or NT, 128 MB RAM, Pentium III/Celeron 600 MHz or equivalent, available PCI slots or USB ports depending on hardware. Yes, AST makes modifications to existing code. However AST only does this service on an hourly basis and cannot provide a fixed price quote. Yes! AST offers custom personalized training on LabVIEW. Please contact AST to discuss your training needs. If you require some general training with LabVIEW please contact National Instruments.

The application has to be Grid aware before it can run on the TCG@NUS. In general a United Devices specific script has to be developed to Grid enable the application. Seminar and workshop will be conducted to brief users in the near future.

In order for dojo.addOnLoad to work properly, you need to wrap your calls inside of an init function... for example Since the alert function is inside the init function dojo's addOnLoad is able to process it correctly.

If you were issued a single user license you will need to transfer the license to the other computer in order to make it function. Transferring the license is a relatively simple process. Please consult our User's Guide for complete instructions. We do offer the license permanently burned onto a USB key that can be used to activate the product on whatever computer it is plugged into at the time.

Some tools support this via the global dowait variable. See for example, Image or Imager. The GUI also allows this.

DirectX (more specifically, the Direct3D subset) is needed only for drawing the images to the screen. Everything else is done in software mode, so the emulator is more CPU bound rather than GPU bound.

A compiler and linker such as Microsoft's Visual C++ (if you have VC++ 6, read "I'm having major problems building my DirectX programs. , , Borland's C++ Builder, or Dev-C++. One thing you ought to check - the SDK usually sets it up for you, but just to be safe - make sure that the most recent include/library paths are at the top of their lists in the search paths.

Microsoft describes Microsoft DirectX as "an advanced suite of multimedia APIs built into Microsoft Windows operating systems." WinDVD requires Microsoft DirectX 8 or greater. The WinDVD installer will prompt you to install DirectX 8, if it is needed.

Before you start the installation, please be sure that all DirectX compatible audio host applications are closed. If the installer still fails, try to reboot your PC and run it again. You can also try to do a manual registration dragging the plug-in .DLL on the audio host application interface (this works with Wavelab or Soundforge). Otherwise you can use the following command from the "execute" window: regsvr32 "c:\[put here the path of the file]\[put here the name of the file].DLL".

If you have a VIA chipset in your PC (commonly used in PCs based on AMD Athlon CPUs), please make sure you are using the latest VIA drivers ? found at: Painkiller also requires the installation of DirectX 9.0b. If you don't have the latest version of DirectX, please download the installer from: For multiplayer gaming please make sure to set your Connection Speed accurately under Player Settings in the Multiplayer Menu.
