Can somebody point me to a DirectX 8 Direct3D tutorial? I have found many DX7 ones, but I want to start out my Direct3D adventures with the newest version. Preferably one that covers enumerating and creating a Direct3D device and setting it up in full-screen mode at a given resolution. Thanks in advance from a Direct3D newbie!

you could first try the help docs that came with the sdk. they are pretty complete and with source. I don''t know of any tutorials about any aspect of direct8 yet.

I think Furby''s site is what you''re looking for :

I don''t remember seeing anything about enumerating devices (the sdk docs cover that if I''m right), but it does cover the creation of a device and the fullscreen setup.
