Microsoft is RETARDED.

[ThePentiumGuy]

Ok, this is SO dumb. When you refernence the DLLs for DirectX:
Microsoft.DirectX
Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D
Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3DX <--

When you import them:
Imports Microsoft.DirectX
Imports Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D
Imports Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.D3DX <--

What the hell?

Hmmmm they are humans, errors like this sometimes may be overlooked.

 

[ThePentiumGuy]

Good point, Im always used to looking at them like "A huge company" rather than a collection of individuals.

 

[IngisKahn]

They tend to pay less attention to VB.NET.
In C# its: using Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3DX

Oh. Damn. Hmph, Im going to personally email microsoft (billg@microsoft.com - jkjk).

I might email MSDN Tech Support or post it on their tech support forum. Nah, just kidding. It doesnt bother me too much.

But Im sure:
a) They know about this, but theyre too lazy to fix it
b) They dont know about this.
c) They know about this and theyre going to fix it immediately.
(Lol what other choices are there ).

You can send an email to directx@microsoft.com to let them know. If you dont report the problems you have no right to complain about them.

 

[ThePentiumGuy]

Well I do have a right , but I hope you realize that I wasnt being 100% serious on this whole thread (The problem exists, but I dont care about it hehe).

I mean Im not "condemning" Microsoft, just saying that they made a mistake. Chill

VB.Net does not, and will not ever receive the same attention as C#. Reporting issues that you find can make life easier for other VB users. It would only take you a few minutes at most to send in an email about it, so why not report it?

Hehe, I like how your post is called "Microsoft is RETARDED", then you say "I mean Im not "condemning" Microsoft, just saying that they made a mistake.", rofl.

I am just happy that VB.NET has the DirectX functionality that it has! Now I dont have to waste time learning C++ syntax - I can just use the language that I know and love.

 

[ThePentiumGuy]

Lol. Well I meant "MICROSOFT IS RETARDED" in a light, humorous, comical, playable (whatever adjectives you want to use) manner. Becuse they are NOT retarded, they invented windows (....fine, everythin ghas its quirks though).

Yeah I gotta be grateful for that. At least theyre supporting vb.net
