[IronPython] Direct3D IronPython Sample

[Dave Fugate]

Perhaps I'm mistaken but the web installer you reference (also installed on my own PC) does not include the Direct3D 10 pre-release needed by the sample...

This is often an area of confusion for people. The DirectX core
runtime has not been changed in some time but other parts of DirectX
have been undergoing a bi-monthly release cycle along side the DirectX
SDK; these other parts include the managed DirectX components. To get
the latest managed DirectX components without getting the SDK you
should try the DirectX end-user runtime web installer. this will
update your system with the latest versions of the bi-monthly
components (D3DX, managed DX, XInput).
