ID3DXSprite problems

i have recently been trying to scale my DirectX 9 sprites, but they never scale. i looked on MSDN, and found two ID3DXSprite interfaces, one that draws with scaling, the other does not. i can't see any difference between them, as you create them in the same way and stuff like that. this is the only difference i could find: here is the Create function for the one i am apparently using: HRESULT WINAPI D3DXCreateSprite( LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice, LPD3DXSPRITE *ppSprite ); but this is the one i want to use: HRESULT D3DXCreateSprite( LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice, LPD3DXSPRITE *ppSprite ); i have tried just using the scaling draw() function's parameters, but i get errors saying that the parameter's are wrong. this is because it is determined to use the OTHER sprite interface if anybody could tell me how to choose the interface i want, it would be very much appreciated. thanks in advance.

This is how I do it, I hope this helps.

pumpkin pie man can u tell me how ur class initializes the sprite and texture. Every time i do it it doesnt work i guess when i'm passing the device to my init(IDirect3DDevice9 *device) it isnt valid or something can u show me how u do it.
thanks,
Cory

Are they different versions of the sprite interface? What version of the SDK do you have installed and can you post some of the code?

If you're interested in the code it's posted below. Basically what I did was make the sprite interface apart of the cGraphics, or my main graphics object. Since there only needs to be one sprite interface having duplicates of this is rather pointless.

The sprite class itself doesn't initialize any textures, it simply is a shell for a sprite. If I wanted to change the texture for the sprite, and the sprite was a static sprite without an animation. I would simply create a texture using cTexture and attach it to the sprite using SetTexture.

Not that I'm aware of, there are from release to release but I'm currently working with Junes SDK so there is only one. (Don't forget that some of these interfaces change from release to release, so using a feburary sdk doc on a june machine may work but have suddle differences.)

Here's the sprite class, but the actual sprite interface is handled by my graphics class.

This code was just cut and pasted from my current project (2D Engine), I'm actually hoping to come back to this code and fix it up a bit.
i ended up not using the scaling built in to one of the Draw functions, but just using a matrix and calling SetTransform.

works perfectly!
By the by, there are different versions of D3DX, and thusly, ID3DXSprite. I think the draw method changed in the February release of DX9, or sometime around there... The scale parameter was removed, I suppose to make the interface more consistent because you use matrix transforms to rotate and translate, so why not scale as well Err, wait, it wasn't a scale parameter. Well, in any case, the draw method did change, and perhaps you went to an archive in MSDN.
