    Why do you need DirectX9? You could use Direct2D above DirectX11 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12868543/how-to-use-drawline-in-c-directx-graphics otherwise https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3d9/line-drawing-support-in-d3dx – Simon Mourier Apr 20 '23 at 07:51

    Why DX9? It's so out-dated that there is no reason to use it. Upgrade to at least DX11. DX12 if you're ambitious. DX12-Ultimate if you're bleeding-edge. – Casey Apr 20 '23 at 08:00
  • I have to use it because I'm hooking CSGOs directX and they are using d3d9 – Nitay Prozanski Apr 20 '23 at 09:19

    Cheat software, I'm guessing. You probably won't get any help here with that. Besides, CS2 is going to be released soon which uses Source 2 which *does* use modern DirectX; additionally, the operating systems CS:GO supports are no longer supported anyway. You're literally wasting your time. – Casey Apr 20 '23 at 18:58

Legacy Direct3D 9 'styled lines' were implemented in the deprecated D3DX9 helper library via ID3DXLine. See Microsoft Docs.
