Hi,
Does anybody know any good DirectX 8 tutorials on Visual C++ for begginers? SDK is confusing for me, I need something easier.
Thanks,
Andrew

Try http://nexe.gamedev.net for starters. Note that it is neXe, not neHe. Since you are on a generally VB forum, Ill assume that you know how to at least read vb syntax, and also recommend http://www.directx4vb.com/ once you have DirectX initialization in C++ down, as well as using vertex buffers in C++ (both are a bit different in vb), but beyond that, the usage is almost identical, along with the theory, and the fact that the directx4vb tutorials are the best I have seen(its where I learned).
Good luck!

Thanks,
I know http://www.directx4vb.com/ You are right this tutorial is the best. It teached me a lot some time ago. That's why I asked for something like that but for VC++. I didn't check the 2nd link you gave me yet. Hope it is as easy as http://www.directx4vb.com/. The fact is that I can't learn DirectX using SDK. I wonder how people do that
You dont learn from the SDK. You learn the basics from either tutorials or the SDK examples, and then use the SDK Docs to learn new things (Shaders, Point Sprites, etc). As you move through, the SDK will be your best friend.
