Re: I'll start the ball rolling then

I, too, have found DirectX quite impossible to understand. So, I picked up a book called Visual C++ 6.0 Unleashed. I find that reading this book clarifies parts of source code for DirectX programs. However, it might not be enough.
I eventually went searching on the net for DirectX tutorials, and I came across someone's set of bookmarks, containing some tutorials and links to DirectX sites. I hope this could be helpful to you.

Ok then, I'll start. I am a complete beginner with no knowledge of game
architecture or construction. There must be a few of us around? Can anyone
give some good advice as to how it all works? A particularly burning
question I have is to do with Directx. How the hell do you start with it?
