I've been doing DOS C++ for about a year now, but now I want to learn DirectX 9 programming. I have experience in DarkBASIC as well as DOS C++. Can anybody suggest any good books for me?

Does anyone have any ideas? For 38 views, 0 replies is kind of sad.

Look on Amazon - some of the best books might be there.
I looked, but the reviews were either bad for most, or said "not for beginners" for the only good one. Are there any online tutorials?

Maybe because they're tired of saying STFBoard.Quote:

Anyhow, most beginners would grab 'Teach Yourself Game Programming with DirectX in 21 Days'

Thanks, guys! I'm going to try to start on the online tutorial, but if that doesn't work, I'll grab a book.
