Ok.. This is a DX8 graphics engine I've been working on. Eventually, it will be capable of making great things in DX8. This can be included in your games, engines, etc.

Version 1.0.0
- This version of the DX8 Engine initializes the DX8 and renders a black screen to the main form. The only thing that is being rendered is an empty background with the frame rate.

> Download <

Version 1.1.0
- Initialized the DX8
- Displays frame rate
- Renders a texture

This version includes the rendering code to put in a texture.

Why aren't you using DX9 instead? Isn't it supposed to be better than DX8?

VB6 doesnt support DX9. Otherwise I would.

But ... VB6 is ancient, I never knew people still used it.

Its a DX8 engine. Not a game engine. Yes, it shows a black screen with the frame rate. Of course it is for learning purposes only. Basically you can see how I initialized the DX8 so people know how to do it.

Don't start developing an engine that used VB6 now. VB.NET is pretty much the same thing, it wouldn't take much to learn it if you already know VB6, well aside from having some bad habits left over form VB6.
