Directx

OK, I gotcha. When I understand how to submit a file, would it be alright if I were to upload it?

Since the board now has a link for v5, I think if the admins wanted to add the file they could easier then it would take for you to email it. This would save you from spending time uploading the file. Plus simply uploading a file does not add it to the available downloads. They need to be added by the admins.
I won't say not to upload it, but the link is available for them as well if they chose to add it. That's your choice if you want to.
E-mailing files is good for when the file is on a local machine and not available to link to, then it works well when you submit it to the site.

Well, I just those admins decide to upload it within the next few days, otherwise, I'll send it.

I found a pretty rare version 5.2 of DirectX that's reasonably small (3.49 megs) I suppose it's v5.2, although, the installer seems to say "DirectX 5." I guess since the mod stated that it's easier for the admins to upload files as a link, this should suffice.

I think oldversion.com should get the different versions of DirectX, cuz I bought a VERY old game and want to play it so I installed 9.0b and it wouldnt work cuz it didnt contain 3.0a settings or something and I cant find them anywhere and the ones on the CD didn work

Old Version does have some older versions of Directx 6.0, 7.0, 8.0a, 8.1, 9.0a on their main page.

Reading How To Request an App would have told you to do a search and if the version you seek hasn't been requested just add your request to an older post for a the program of the same name.

Directx 3.0a
