Reserved post.

- EDIT (08/june/2010 17:00h BRT)

## Latest version seems to be stable (no other bugs reported so far).

## Please read the documentation, it contains valuable information and I spent a couple of hours on it. :wink:

## I have still not tested all functions, so tell me if something doesn't work.

Yet another reserved post.


## Files inside GPF_v1.1c.rar
- GPF_v1.1c.rar
----- DX8 Specific Files
---------- d3d8.dll
---------- gpcomms.dll
----- DX9 Specific Files
---------- d3d9.dll
---------- d3dx9_27.dll
---------- gpcomms.dll
----- GPF_v1.1c.ahk

## Total number of functions: 10 usable + 1 auxiliar


k3ph has pointed me this topic where some people were already creating AHK functions using GPP. Now I remember that I've seen this topic before, but I found it a bit too messy and couldn't be satisfied with some things like declaring certain global variables. Anyway, I cannot complain as I've learned a lot creating this library and trying to write a good documentation. Hope you all enjoy it! :D

I intend to add a few things to the DX8 version and finish
its documentation so I can release a DX9 version as well.

Is there a way to make it show a picture, or say a crosshair?

As I've already stated, I'm not the original provider of those.

Sure :D but not in v1.0 :?
I promise I'll finish this DX8 version ASAP!
(I had 2 exams today, 2 more to go now...)

Only ingame. That's the purpose of this library. I've already seen a lot of people here (just like me) searching for a method to overlay Direct3D games. When I found this solution, I immediately decided to create a library and share it. :)
