Before i start.. I went and looked down the forum to make sure my question hasn''t already been posted, and i didn''t see anyhting similar so this should be new. Bare with me Im a newbie, but im a newbie with heart!! hehe Anyways, I just downloaded SDK, I barely know anything about it. I''ve been programming for awhile, just not hardcore! like VB, a little C, html, java, but Im mostly considered a 3d animator by proffesion. Since that is over with, on with it already. Now where was I! I have SDK, I''ve just been looking at the samples, and already drooling with excitement. I''ve been trying to ---> Just for practice 1.)Somehow create an object in a 3d env. like LIGHTWAVE! and just be able to look at it in a directx window, nothing more. But, later i want to know how to move it around on a set path. Then Later, Be able to move it with the mouse or kybd (Some type of user input) Do ya understand what im doing, just starting off slow and working my way up! I forgot to mention, I have VisualBasic, are there any sites that easily and lightly explains directx and visualbasic, not all complex? I think thats all i wanted to know for now, im sure theres a lot more i need to know but that should do it for now! thx alot chaoticseed

Whats a good c package thats free, and whats with all the single files ya have to download for DJGPP?

I actually found a site that explained the usage of video modes in visual basic, i seemed to understand that fine, im still a little shaky though answer me this?

Are objects the devices, like directdraw,direct3d,directinput,directsound, etc..
dim objdx as directx7?

thx
