#5062486 Game programming - books?

Posted by oldgregg on 16 May 2013 - 11:47 PM

Bump Game Coding Complete.

 

Also 

Frank Luna's Introduction to 3D Game Programming with DirectX 11 is a must have!

I study Computer Games Programming at uni and this is literally our DirectX bible! 

 

 

EDIT:

#5017247 Could not initialize the terrain object

Posted by oldgregg on 03 January 2013 - 03:08 PM

So I did that, and it wasn't working because I am an absolute moron.

'dirt01.dds'

 

 

Was actually named:

'diirt01.dds'

 

I think I need to go to bed guys.


Thanks so much for your help though, I'll definitely implement the better way or reporting errors.


Thanks!




#4986366 How much math do I need to use directx?

Posted by oldgregg on 03 October 2012 - 07:04 AM

For super basic DX and starting to learn you really only need matrices and vectors. That's what they taught us at uni and then when you start getting more advanced you're looking at trig, pythag and others similar to that.
