Hi everybody. My bro is programming 3d games using opengl and with my curiosity to just learn how windows api looks like I want to get into direct 3d, anyway, I want to know if there is a good web site having d3d tutorial, I need all stuff from scratch, I have done some ddraw but I think it is not supported by directx any more, and also it is not 3d . Also my computer has a lower version of directx, I think I need to install current version of directx sdk, thanx...

Though considered a competitor of OpenGL, there seems much too faqs on DirectX on net and in books. Might be cos it needs some COMming(COM programming) to start programming in D3d. ;D

I guess it's technically not correct to use them now, but DirectDraw interfaces should still work. Otherwise, old games would stop running.
