Thanks zumwalt. Something to do till the next Aurora release comes out Going to play with sprites after I add a simple ai to race against.

I can't run this, I get an error message in portuguese, most likely from directx itself, about it being impossible to find the "entrance point for the dxbegin2d function in dx3d9r.dll".

Thanks John. I got a simple ai, but there is bug somewhere. It runs fine in debug mode, but crashes in regular run mode. Tough one to track down. As soon as I feel it is stable I will release the next version. It does make it fun to have someone to race against. Hope to have that out soon.

Protected, the version released as far as I know is stable. I didn't have any problems while testing it.  It does sound like something wrong with directx but I don't enough to say where.

I suggest re-installing Aurora first, by completiy un-installing it then re-installing the latest build, A3R8
The error suggests you are using an older release.
That DLL is Paul's DLL to hook with DirectX, an entry point is like a door, and if the DLL is old it might not have the entry point, therefore no door.

Give this a try.

Also make sure you don't have Aurora or any of the 3D examples running when you update to the newest version of the compiler.

camPos = c.GetPosition();

should probably be

camPos = c.GetPosition(0);

[kryton9]

I tried the camPos(0), and it says wrong number of parameters. But what is funny is it is working now.
I placed the 0 in, got the wrong number of parameters message, took it out, and it compiled and ran with the execute button.
