For the DirectX Plugins to work correclty in Microeditor you must have DirectX 7.0a or later installed. I would recommend going on up to DirectX 8.0 since it is now released.

This will show you how to check the version of DirectX that is installed on your computer and how to update it to the correct version. To check this do the following:

1) Go to the Start Menu
2) Left click on Run
3) Type in Dxdiag, then click "Ok" to open the file.

This should open the DirectX Diagnostic Tool. At the bottom of this first page you should see a line that shows:

DirectX Version: DirectX 8.0 (4.08.00.0400) (These numbers in parenthesis may not be exactly the same, cause my system is running Win 2k) Make sure the number after the DirectX is 8.0 or you will need to download DirectX 8.0 and install it on your system.

You can download DirectX 8.0 from the following link:

Windows 98/ME http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...ReleaseID=27742
