Drawbox not showing...

I have no errors with my base, everything is declared and defined, as it should be. The only problem I'm having is the "Drawbox(" not showing up in test9 when I try to test it, could you help me?

Here is my base,

Code:

/* This is a Base made by xGhost, built from scratch. */

#include "Menu.h"
#include <iostream>

oEndScene pEndScene;

void BuildMenu(char * menuname, int x, int y, int h, int w, DWORD TITLECOL, DWORD BACKCOLOR, DWORD BORDERCOLOR, LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice)
{
		DrawBox(5,6,210,124,D3DCOLOR_XRGB(174,174,174),D3DCOLOR_ARGB(0,0,0,0),pDevice); //Menu Back 
		return;
}


HRESULT WINAPI EndScene(LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice)
{
	return pEndScene(pDevice);
}

I'm new I can't learn by only reading I need to do it and learn from others, it's how I learn it can't be changed... I've tried several things to make it work but nothing seems to be working for me. I'm asking the community for help, I only ask that you don't post things like "Read a book"...

D3DCOLOR_ARGB(0,0,0,0)

Alpha represents opacity so it should be 255, not zero.

Tried that and still didn't show up...

You need to call your BuildMenu function in EndScene. Also, a void does not return a value, so you should not have return at the end of that function.

Would it work like this, the basis of this code is from your base CodeDemon...

Code:

HRESULT WINAPI EndScene(LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice)
{
	BuildMenu("xGhost",0,0,180,200,Red,Black,Green,pDevice);
	return pEndScene(pDevice);
}

why do u have a return in a void?
are u hooking the endscene?

I just have a return because I'm use to using it because of Tutorials, I added the EndScene to see if the Box decided to show when I used it but Epicly failed... xD

The "return;" is perfectly legitimate in a void. I use it myself to cut short of a function when certain circumstances require it to.

		//Dont need to return here.
}


HRESULT WINAPI EndScene(LPDIRECT3DDEVICE9 pDevice)

        BuildMenu( /*Args Here*/);

oEndScene pEndScene;

}

I tried that before doest really change or do anything... I know I might sound retarded but I don't know what ARGs are...?

You did everything wrong D:

ARGB
they are the basic 3 colors that makes every other color
R = red
G = Green
B = Blue

and the A is the alpha = transparity

This still wont work if you dont detour (hook) endscene which makes all the functions your using available else it wont do shit.
