ok we all know those games like half-life, hitman, carmageddon, Midtown Madness, goldeneye 007, rainbow six, rainbow six: rogue spear, yeah yeah...those good 3-d racing games and the 3-d shoot em down games. Now how would i program a 3-d shooter game with directx? i don't even know how to even get started from a blank project. This is in Visual basic by the way. i've seen a 3-d one done before..i just dont know how to program it. can someone help me get started on 3-d programming with direct3d or directx in VB?
