It is possible to run a Direct3D application over the Friendly ARM Mini2440 or Mini6410 ? I would like to develop using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, C++, MFC + Direct3D. I know that Direct3D package is available into Platform Builder but is these device support Direct3D ? I don't want to developp a game but only a kind of coulds point preview. Best regards
There are no Direct3D acceleration on the Mini2440. Don't know about the 6410. Also, I think the Direct3D driver is only a stub. I don't know if software D3D will take over...
I read on this forum that mini6410 is equiped of a graphic accelerated and a mathematic coprocessor. http://www.friendlyarm.net/forum/topic/1347#7227 Maybe it is enough to support Direct3D hardware ? Does someone could confirm me this?
I finally bought the mini6410. Make a new image in English, I include the D3D Mobile. Now, I've tried running the Microsoft Direct3D sample from the DirectX platform image. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb278112.aspx But every time I call the function "CreateDevice" I got the the following error : D3DMERR_INVALIDDEVICE However, the driver D3D Mobile is present on this model so why it is not working ? I hope I have not wasted my money !
I take a look in the DEBUG windows and I get the following error ; Load module: d3dm_sedrv.dll Load module: ddraw.dll [D3DM:ERR] Invalid CPUID for D3DM Driver !!! [D3DM:ERR] This Driver is Only for Samsung SystemLSI CPU D3DM SW Driver: Unable to start. Can someone help me with that ? Where could I contact the manufacturing ? I need Direct3D working on my device. I spent 2 days trying to make it work. I've also take a look to OpenGL ES, but it does not offer windowed (only fullscreen) application as D3D allowed.
