DirectX9 DirectDraw/C++ Tutorial?
« on: November 30, 2005, 12:14:21 PM »
I've just had a good 20 minute search for a DirectDraw tutorial that uses Directx9 and C++. I've found loads of tutorials on VB/C#, usually with DirectX7, but they don't help much.

Anyone got any linkies?

I'm pretty sure they stopped updating DirectDraw (starting with DirectX 8 I think)

You should still be able to use it, but it might be easier just to do 2D graphics using Direct3D (eg, using D3DXSPRITEs)
