I appologize if this question has been asked. Is there anywhere (wether online here a Gamedev or elsewhere) where one could find a good tutorial on using the debugger for Microsoft Visual Studio? Thanks. ~Bolt ~ Boltimus ~

personally, I do not use the debugger for VC. I insert some test code that reports variables that I suspect to be the problem.. and track down the problem.

Yuo ain''t really smart by using only TRACE etc messages since they won''t give you a FULL power of a debug tool by MS.. Try getting more inside debugging by yourdself, put some breakpoints etc and soon you''ll see that tmp vars were just waisting your lines..
Believe me, its VERY powerful tool..
