Here I am trying to create my own D3D engine.. Ive just started to learn it. Isnt much hard at the moment.
Using timeGetTime since its said to have the highest resolution of all the other timers. I rendered a 32x32 box w00t

More updates..  Ive learned texture coordination but took me forever to get it right.. optimized a few thingssuch as calculating coords before rendering. Selects the best processing flag and some other stuff. Also this time I grabbed the sprite from a sprite set instead of just a 64x64 file and drew a map.

Yeah...you might have initialized something wrong maybe? Also: http://directx4vb.vbgamer.com/ Learned all my DX7 and DX8 stuff from there. |

I capped the FPS. Code: Do While timeGetTime < StartTime + 25 DoEvents Sleep 1 Loop Uncapped is only like 140FPS.. weird right? |

FPS is based off of your computer speed. Give your computer specs (or the fps you get for ms4) and then that number will mean something. |

Ive got in texture pooling and saving model files. Makes things very convenient and efficient. Im going to be getting in dynamic model animation frames with timers next. |
