Hey does anyone know what a very good book would be to learn how to program games with VC++ and DirectX(at least ver 8.1 perferably 9.0)? I''ve got $50 to spend. Thanks for all your help in advance.

Also: I''m willing to go to almost any lengths to learn how to program games so it really doesn''t matter what I have to do. I just love programming that much -_-

I know a good deal about C++ and some C#. I can program in Win32 pretty well too. I know a little DirectX, mainly off of what I''ve learned in Trickos of the Windows Game programming Gerus 2nd edition. But I''m, still in Chapter 7. And by the way, I''vge never really come to the full meaning of what rasterizer is. What''s that? I hoipe that desn''t make me sound completly stupid but it''s just one of those things that you just glance over and read about how to program it type deals.

A definition of Rasterization.

IMHO, you dodn''t need a book on how to program in VC++. You could work it out with less effort than reading through a book.

You''re already on your way so all you''d need is a book on DirectX.
