Help with Vista/DirectX/Decal? |
When I'm going to install Decal on this new computer, it prompts me to install DirectX 9.0c.
This computer has Windows Vista and DirectX 10.
Is it alright to install 9.0c over 10? I'm not going to screw anything up, am I?
Thanks

Well, I got sick of getting no answers on every attempt to figure this out, so I just tried to install it...
And it didn't work. I ran into an error.

I have it running on Vista x64, but the Decal installer gave me problems too. It tried to install DirectX 9 components, which gave an error. One of the devs posted a 'pure' Decal installer (I believe on the acdev.com boards?) which does not contain the DirectX stuff. I used that one, worked for me. Apparently I already had the DirectX components installed.

It's in one of the sticky threads.

We are like dwarfs sitting on the shoulders of giants. We see more and things that are more distant than they did,
not because our sight is superior or because we are taller than they, but because they raise us up and their
great stature adds to ours

I found it in this thread: http://forums.acdev.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4920&start=0 but it's also mentioned at http://forums.acdev.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4924&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
It links to: http://core.decaldev.com/files/2960/decal.msi
These threads also contain this warning:
Make sure that .NET 2.0 and DirectX 9.0c are installed correctly, otherwise AC will crash! |

Is there anyway for me to run decal without downgrading to directx9? I'd like to keep DirectX10 to avoid any type of conflicts with Vista
