I want to make a map with tiles using DX9. I have a good knowledge of VB.Net, but no idea of DX9. I imagine that since that I don't have great demands with 3d graphics, it wouldn't be so hard.
Any good suggestion to start with?
 
I found this site to be the perfect kick-starter to 2D graphics in DirectX 9. (Thanks, aewarnick.) It's in C#, but if you can't convert C# to VB.net by now, working with the grossly under-documented Managed DirectX will be a swift kick in the crotch. :)

Another site - geared toward 3D primarily, but still excellent - is DirectX4VB.com. If you do decide to venture into the world of 3D, this site offers the only decent Managed Direct3D tutorial I've found.
