After your post I hate to answer.PS 3D online RPG Scene yeah John Carmack asked from me why Quak34 is too slow on 34500000000Thz.

But Dx is best API for allaround windows game programming.Get the latest SDK read it´s help and try to get DX app to start. This site has many tutorials under the programming section.

Ps.Im so young that I don´t know 3d math I can´t make 3d ORPG scenes.

SORRY!



By all the means learn Opengl if you want it is also very good chechk out Nehe´s tutorials

Argh... when will this myth die? Direct3D and OpenGL are EQUAL in terms of performance! Anyway, check out the "Programming" on this site.

LOL, no it doesn''t do that. It helps you to program for DirectX, it has good documentation and tutorials. Also quite a lot of sample code.

Sure but it''s not easy. You''ll have to code a good 3D engine first.
