Game Engine Question

You might want to take a look at dingus. It is a complete D3D based engine in C++.

I think the name will be the least of your problems. Just pick a working title and stick with it until you have something that works.

Basically, all you have to do is pass in the HWND of the window/control that you want to render to to directx and that's it. Look at Tutorial1/2 in the sdk, it'll show you how to set up directx and a basic win32 message loop.

For multiple viewports/windows, you'll have to set up multiple swap chains.

All of the regular win32 buttons/menus/etc should all just work as they normally do in win32.

You can also, if you prefer, have a managed c++ or c# layer on top of your engine and use WinForms or WPF if you want.
