labisem Posted July 1, 2003 Posted July 1, 2003 Does anyone use DirectDraw with DirectX9? I want to make a simple 2d game using VB.NET+DX9 (not a complicated 3d project), but there is nothing on the internet to start. I wonder, no one uses DX9 for 2d or they don't bother to write a tutorial? Can anyone help me? Where shall I find something relative? I want to learn DX9 for VB.NET and I can't find a place to start. (The only thing on the internet is a tutorial in directx4vb.com, but is more 3d oriented and complicated for my level). Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted July 1, 2003 *Experts* Posted July 1, 2003 (edited) I have written a simple tutorial on setting up the device and setting up the primary and backbuffer surface and then filling it with color and flipping it. I hope it can help you :). (beware, it might contain typos as i just uploaded it :) ) http://www.directx4.net/ddbasics.html [edit]The site seems to be down now[/edit] [edit]Seems to be up now[/edit] Edited July 1, 2003 by mutant Quote
labisem Posted July 2, 2003 Author Posted July 2, 2003 Hey mutant you are my favorite! That's exactly what I was looking for. Now, if you could write something about how to implement a tile-map using DX9 you would be fantastic. I hope you will continue your good work. Quote
