SlimDX - Beginner 2D game tutorials?
Author
Hey all,
i am actually looking for a SlimDX 2D Game tutorials.
The reason is that i have many GDI+ game i want to port to SlimDX but i never worked with DirectX before so i have absolutly no clue where to start for all the device thing and whats the common gameloop to use.
Or can someone give me an exemple of a good gameloop and device initialization using SlimDX? That would be a lot of help.
I am open to all suggestions and link.
Thanks in advance! :)

Try looking at the MiniTri samples that come with the SlimDX SDK.

In a DirectX9 docs, i have this instructions:
---
device.Transform.View = Matrix.LookAtLH ( new Vector3 ( 0, 0, 5f ),
new Vector3 ( 0, 0, 0 ), new Vector3 ( 0, 1, 0 ) );
---
What is the actual equivalent in SlimDX? What do i write in order to replace the
"device.Transform.View" part? Is it a reference to the viewport?
Thanks in advance!
---
device.Transform.View = Matrix.LookAtLH ( new Vector3 ( 0, 0, 5f ),
new Vector3 ( 0, 0, 0 ), new Vector3 ( 0, 1, 0 ) );

I did it like this:
---
Matrix mx = new Matrix();
mx = Matrix.LookAtLH(new Vector3(0, 0, 5f), new Vector3(0, 0, 0), new Vector3(0, 1, 0));
displayDevice.SetTransform(TransformState.View, mx);
---
Look right?
Sorry i am still pretty new to all the directx thing world.

Trying to get into the 2D World of DirectX but it is a lot of new concept to assimilate. Nothing impossible but its impressive how it is a world of itself.
Using Direct3D for 2D design is a bit hard to understand some time, even if i am an experienced application developer.
Now i wonder, does the XNA Tutorials on the web could be of help for a DirectX beginner like me? Or does the syntax and method name are too different from XNA(D9) and SlimDX to even be able to figure out the difference?
