Dolphin build woes

Matt · 06-26-2009, 01:14 PM #1

I built Dolphin r3543 on Windows Vista using Visual C++ earlier today, but for some reason the DirectX9 video plugin does not work. I have the DirectX SDK installed and the OpenGL plugin works fine. Any ideas on why this could be happening? And while I'm on the topic, does the DirectX plugin even offer better performance that the OpenGL plugin?

Also, I just tried building the same revision under Linux, but I get this error:

Code:

This is the build output from a second build attempt, so the rest of the build messages are not there. Thanks in advance for any help.

You may not care about Direct3D plugin, main development now goes on OpenGL one Smile

It never worked after revision 25XX

You may want to try the latest version if you want to compile on Linux, since it gets broken often.

Thanks guys, I'll just stick with the OpenGL plugin then. I fixed my Linux build problem; it tuns out I needed to add '-march=i686' to the compile flags for scons in the SConstruct file. This might be a distribution specific issue. Also, how do I build an x64 binary in Visual C++? If I set the build setting to Release x64 it skips all the builds, doesn't compile anything, yet it gives no errors.

Did you hit Rebuild All? Just build probably won't do anything.

Hmm, it seems that I'm missing the x64 libraries entriely; on the VC++ directories settings screen Win32 is the only platform available. I'm going to try reinstalling VC++ and see if that fixes it.

Yeah. If that doesn't work, just install the Platform SDK, which will install X64 build tools. Smile

I just had the exact same problem, i'm already getting the sdk stuff.
Had i known i had to download 2gb in stuff to compile dolphin...

That's why I wish it would compile with MinGW. (I never liked Microsoft compilers, you know why.) Hell, I don't even know if it does already... there are no instructions. Tongue
