It seems there aren't so many directx developers. Is anyone here a DX dev?

[davepermen]

i like and use both, i just prefer gl because i started with gl..

i learn to have the best of both worlds.. that is for example the coding design structure of dx, namely based on com. com is a great way to encapsulate your stuff, make it reuseable. of course, i don't use full com, but the basics of it.

and dx9 is really great to work. easy simple and quick as hell..

but i guess your red devil likes to stick his **ck into dx's big yellow cross as well..

I personally wanted to learn both, but I started with OpenGL. I tried several times to learn DX, but each time I failed. Either not understanding or not liking the design. I'm now on linux, so I guess I never will.

btw, My avatar doesn't show my personal taste, I just thought it was funny. I'll probably look for a better, pro-linux one

Hi. I'm a DirectX 9 developer. I'm currently developing my company's game engine HailX.

Nice to have you here in our forums. We really need some DirectX developers to help out with answering questions and other stuff.

Very nice graphics. Very impressive. You have an executable demo one can try out?

[Amithran]

Win/lose possibilities have been disabled for testing as of right now. I'm setting up the menu system, and I'll have a new demo ready to release then.
