New Project Advice

D3DX TextureLoader and FileStream issue.
|
Here's the issue.
I'm using StreamWriter/StreamReader for my file I/O. If I use either of these classes to read or write to a file, and then call TextureLoader.FromFile() I am greeted by a nice spiffy invalid data exception.
My theory is that... |

Visual C++ keyword: abstract

It's been a while since I've used C++ and I came across something strange when using VC++ Express.

Cross language / cross platform questions.

Appreciate the response, and I have read this already. However with no definitive timetable on when deprecated items would be phased out of specification, I really can't judge what to plan for. I personally just hate the fact that future revisio... |

C# Questions
|
Anaton,
C# is a very good language choice for a mature beginner. Even though safe C# code does not use pointers, I find that to fully understand how objects work in languages like C# and Java, you need to have a good understanding of how pointers... |

[C#] Exception handling

C# Renderloop
