DX11 build HowTo

Hi all,

this thread is about HowTo pick up someone … ehm sorry

this thread is about something sexy as well: how to build dx11-vvvv.

Why build dx11 ?

Cause it is under development and you need to rebuild it to get latest cool features or you want to add some and test it.

For example, I added an octahedron mesh and sent the push request to vux without try it cause I was not able to build dx11-vvvv.

So, I added some simple instructions https://github.com/fibo/dx11-vvvv about how to build, thanks to @colorsound that shared information.

My purpouse is to enable evvvveryone to build if she/he needs it so we can help @mrvux in his huge effort about dx11 implementation.

Every feedback or suggestion is welcome: if you find something missing, just add it using github. If you need support on how to use git just ask me. I don’t want free beer, in this period I like red wine.

P.S. I linked my own fork cause I’m waiting for pull request to be approved: if you want to contribute, fork this repo instead:

https://github.com/mrvux/dx11-vvvv

Lates build is not working for me. Can anyone check this https://github.com/mrvux/dx11-vvvv/issues/11 ?

you cannot build against 29.2 i think, its only for last alpha

Hmm, need to check this, thx.

With 29.30 x86 and latest GitHub version, i’m getting this:
