DirectInput Usage???

Learn it.

I''ll elaborate the clown''s statement. Though it''s basically true.

Things that you can do with DX but not (or very difficult) with the basic Win API:

-Use Joysticks, Mousepads, Wheels and the like, including FF
-Flexible Mouse usage
-determine if a key is up or down, therefore generating up and down events as needed

For simple text input, MS claims that using the Win API is simpler. This is true mainly due to the fact that there are different keyboard layouts. Where my ''Y'' key is, probably resides your ''Z'' key. DX more or less says that the button at the bottom left of the keyboard has been pressed.

Thank you, by the way Clown your answer was very "DEMAGOJIK" in Turkish. Do you want to know what does it mean? Learn it.
