Direct3D not working!

maxoberberger opened this issue 8 years ago · 3 comments

Sparky fails to init Direct3D:
"Ausnahme ausgelöst bei 0x0FA11D42 (SPCore.dll) in Sandbox.exe: 0xC0000005: Zugriffsverletzung beim Lesen an Position 0x00000000."
(sorry for having vs is german)
This happens in DXContext.cpp. The D3D11CreateDevice method does not create a device, so when the ID3D11Device* dev pointer is used I get a NullpointerException (or whatever you call this in c++).

I think that you need to install Windows SDK.
For win 10, the link is : https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/windows-10-sdk

Thanks, that fixed the problem!

The reason you need the Windows SDK is probably because the Direct3D Debug Layer is enabled. If you disable it, I'm sure you won't need the SDK installed.
