DirectX Demos

theres a couple of demos that come with the sdk. they're in the directory the sdk is installed in. they're pretty good with comments in the code

The DirectX 9 SDK I got has about 30 demos in it. I got it from a book and I am not sure if it is the exact same one that Microsoft has on there site. You might try looking into them. I will see about getting the codes and sending them to you.

Those aren't really what I'm looking for. In the Demo's Im reffering too, they are basicly movies that are around a minute long; demonstrating pimp-ed effects.

those are probably the standard demos that come with the sdk
i'm just starting out myself too. in the sample code folder theres a sub folder called tutorials. start there :)
the first one teaches you how to create the device, the next one teaches you how to use vertexes, then matrixes, then lights textures and meshes.

start from the first one because they build off each other.

I am following tutorials but It is still nice to see some sample code of incredibly cool effects.

hehe i dunno where to find stuff like that yet, i'm still impressed with the rotating textured cylindar! :)

lol, Mine has a demo game were the user flys around shooting rings. It also has a DirectX Browser. Were there are tons of demos on what DirectX can do, Like an exsplosian, pixel modification, light effects, etc.

I have the sample browser but there isn't much in it except tutorials and samples on various things (none of those though). Damn.

I am uploading a demo game to my server. (I am on dial-up so it will be a few minutes) I can then give you the source if you want.

BTW check under the DirectX 9 Browser under Misc, Find the game Donuts Revenge 4, Also whe you stat the game press up on the keyboard or it will close the game. If you do not have that then we do not have the same version.

My miscelanious has:
DxDiagOutput
DirectX Diagnostic Report
getdxver
DirectX Install


Not there. Thanks.

Sorry Not Misc, Demo!

lol, no demo tab at all. I have the 9.0c SDK.

I think waht you looking for is demos from the demoscene. Just type in "demoscene" in google, and you will find some sites that make the demos from paties available for downloading.
I recommend www.scene.org, look for the files section. What you are looking for is demos, 64k intros and maybe 4k intros.

www.northerndragons.ca has some very cool demos, many of which are 4k.

Of course I could be biased since I worked on some of them...

One of these days I want to do some tutorials covering some of those effects. I'm not sure how many people would be interested in them though.

Those are what I want! However, I looked at those, but they don't seem to be open source; something that I need. Any open source ones?
