im looking for a good toturial series on dx8.1, like the one on nexe, cos the one on nexe got me started, but it just kinda stopped and now i dont know where to go. i have checked out some tuts on this site and flipcode, but they r quite dated, and the topics r pretty random and hard to follow, thanx in advance

Two words: SDK Documentation. That''s where everyone else get''s all their info from!

Yeah.. good old SDK, that''s where I started my encounter with DirectX.. but the 8.1 SDK sucks on docs though..

Having possibly the most lousy connection in the world I have yet to get 8.1. How does it differ from 8.0?

The 8.1 docs tend to have more in-depth info on D3DX stuff, and there are some extra bits on the vshaders and stuff. But I can''t remember any of the basic stuff being different.

Well, I think its 8.1... it could have been the xbox sdk. I can''t remember now.. Can someone back me up?
