rawTextW' : cannot convert parameter 2 from 'char []' to 'LPCWSTR'
1> Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast

Code

#include "SystemIncludes.h"

void PrintText(char pString[], int x, int y, D3DCOLOR col, ID3DXFont *font)
{
RECT FontRect = { x, y, x+500, y+30 };
font->DrawText( NULL, pString, -1, &FontRect, DT_LEFT | DT_WORDBREAK, col);
}

try that again or just go to project properties and made it Multi Byte char

check functions.h file

Code:

  void PrintText(char pString[], int x, int y, D3DCOLOR col, ID3DXFont *font)

change to :

Code:

  void PrintText(LPCWSTR pString, int x, int y, D3DCOLOR col, ID3DXFont *font)
