Thans a lot, I have one more question ~

I am downloading the VS.NET. Is that all i need?

OR do i also need to install .NET FRAMEWORK SDK???

Thanks again...

As part of the install it should include everything you need. All the tools etc from the Framework SDK will be installed as well.

Oh, i didn't know it would be that easy haha. Thanks a lot.

One more thing. I doubt VS.NET includes the directX right?

so what do i need to get that up and running?

and can you provide the link to the documentation please.

 

(i am not lazy to search myself... i am just don't really know how to use MSDN.)

 

thanks.

You don't need to search MSDN: just use Google. If you search for "directx" it takes you right to the download page.

 

Since you plan on learning .NET and DirectX at the same time, you'd better get *real* good at searching for information *real* fast as DirectX is a very difficult thing to learn by itself - and that's for experienced developers confortable with a language.

 

To tips to searching for info:

In google, you can include "site:website" to limit a search to a particular URL. For example, you can use the following in google:

directx site:microsoft.com

 

Another useful tool - Microsoft's area of Google:

http://www.google.com/microsoft.html
