I have the dx8 sdk and have been looking at it, but I am not getting it, here is what I need to know,


I have created a dx8 3d object, I need to know the easyes way to display it on my form, in a like a pictuer bos or something.

so we will call the file spaz.x
okay if you can help can you give me a working exaple of the code using thet file name, I will try it and if it works I will study that code and see how it works..

And if any one is good at it please help me out with this too,

I would like the viewer to be able to spin it and look at it from all angels, how would I do this..

Thanks for any replays, much needed help here :)

Thanks

You need to learn to walk before you can run. You are
asking pretty advanced questions, for not knowing how
to learn to draw triangles onto a form. My suggestion is
to walk through the MS tutorials, look at the code, learn
what does what, and why, and work from there. start
with the 2d stuff, then move to 3d, leanr about textures
and lights, and finally, when you understnad all of that,
read about .X files, meshes, etc. These are just my
thoughts, and you can choose to disregard what i say,
but I used to be where you are now.
