    Why?! MS Why.....?!

    I really can't understand why the DirectX SDK can't integrate with Visual Studio out of the box.

    I remember a couple of years ago, that the SDK detected VS and integrated with the development environment, i would really like to know why it doesn't now. I think about a million threads about linking errors would never have been created, like how to link with d3d9.h or other similar threads that are abundant on the "internets".

    Blahhhh.... happy new year!

    But what if you want to have several different versions of the SDK installed at the same time.

    Those threads could also have never been created if the people actually tried to fix it themselves instead of just posting the first time they run into trouble. The internet has made people lazy.

    If people spent a minute searching the forums and reading the FAQs before posting I'd be out of a job.
      Got some XNA Game Studio/XNA Framework development info to share with the community? Put it on the XNA Wiki.
