    2D Graphics with Direct3D?

    Reply Quote
    Hello all, I am new to DirectX or any Graphical Game Libraries for that matter, so I was wondering if someone could please point me in the right area for using 2D graphics with Direct3D

    like 24 bit pixels on a 32 bit surface

    Thanks in advance

    Yeah, I googled Sprites with Direct3D when he said that

    Now to get that to fully work do I have to make a 3D application before doing that?

    If by making a 3D application you understand creating a directx device yes, you have to.

    To display sprites you have to have a direct3d device and s sprite object. Load a texture into a sprite object and then call sprite.Draw() function and device.present().
