Three or four tutorials, to learn the syntax. No real good ones. One went waaaaaaaaaaay too slow, the other finally got me to the coding part after 'bout five chapters on how to make the form (which I skipped, as it's point'n click and reading whatever the tags say )

Ok here it is! Learn from it, and tell me if it works...
BTW, there is a way to draw all this in a window, but I don't know how, because I've only been making full-screen apps with directdraw... Also try searching for SnowEngine. It's an DX engine for VB6! |

What would you suggest for anyting 2D in DX9 since dd is gone? Good, low level tutorials for managed dx seem to be hard to come by.

Oy, didn't know VB was so flexible as to allow structs. This opens whole new dimensions The DD specific things're still a bit unclear though. Should experiment with it, and find some tutorial on it, I guess.

If you move to .net you'll find that VB.NET is as fast as C# wich is "Almost" as quick as C++
