Im quite embarrassed to even ask, but im having trouble doing this myself and I cant find any tutorials :( I can handle everything except blitting a background. Basically I want a bitmap to cover the entire screen (leaving room for a self-lowering, raising background). I load the texture using D3DXCreateTextureFromFile to get my LPDIRECT3DTEXTURE9. Any tutorials out there? Any assistance appreciated. -sd -visual studio 2003 -directx 9.0c

I just downloaded a VB6 example doing this, by using a D3DXSprite.
Basicly, in VB6 code, it's doing:

Sprite.Draw NormalTex, ByVal 0, Vec2(1, 1), Vec2(0, 0), 0, Vec2(0, 0), D3DColorARGB(255, 255, 255, 255)

Thanks, Took me while to figure it out. But for some reason Setting the D3DXSPRITE_BILLBOARD flag caused all kinds of problems for me.

Really, this is all you need

CLASS MEMBERSLPDIRECT3DTEXTURE9 m_pTexture;LPD3DXSPRITE       m_pSprite;INITD3DXCreateSprite(pDevice, &m_pSprite);if( FAILED( D3DXCreateTextureFromFile( pD3DDevice, szFileName, &m_pTexture ) ) ){    return E_FAIL;}RENDERm_pSprite->Begin( 0 ); // D3DXSPRITE_BILLBOARD m_pSprite->Draw(m_pTexture, NULL, NULL, NULL, 0xffffffff);m_pSprite->End();

Ill post full source when Im done for others, cause theres not one example on the net ><
