ok. im getting my feet a bit wetter.

im planning a simple pure 3d pong game in VB. heres what i want to know.

1) what should i use? DirectX or a vb 3d engine? any suggestions on one? and documentation?

2) how hard is it to make (choice for #1) draw models? (extension is irrelivent)

3) modify them? (change the overall width/height/depth non uniform?

4) how hard would collition detection be? can i find out where it collided relitive to the model's origin?

yeah....
