Awesome!!!!! So glad that you removed the WinForms dependency. I know I asked about it here at least once.

In addition to the MSDN Forums, please take a look at the connect.microsoft.com beta feedback/bug reports as well.

The SDK is great so far, but I have one concern:
Do we get any alternatives for AudioVideoPlayback? Playing videos + sound or rendering them to a texture seems to be an impossible thing right now.

Tom Miller,
I bought one of your books "Beginning 3D Game Programming". However, I ame having an extreemely hard time figuring it out... I could not get the teapot to render, so I skiped that (which isn't realy important to me). I have just finished adding the code on page 60 for the blockers game. You now say that I can render a design onto my screen, but it says there are 18 errors. Each error is the same "Expected class, delegate, enum, interface, or struct". I am very frusterated with this (as I can not figure out what I did rong), and have nowhere else to turn for help. Tom please help me out... Email me at weston144@yahoo.com
Thanks...

Is the 2.0 documentation anywhere? I've been digging around and can't find it. I was trying to convert my 1.1 DirectX code to 2.0 and while a lot is logical, I'm stuck on some of the other changes.

thanks,
arne

I found from my debug output that when going from windowed to full screen or vica versa, the device was resized twice - not good. So it's not too difficult just to handle the changes yourself. Also it is much easier to handle exceptions from invalidating or restoring your device objects if you call it from your code; when the D3D device handled it you had to put a try block around base.OnSizeChanged which is messy IMHO.

btw I found that I got memory leaks when creating dynamic vertex buffers in the default pool, and I reproduced this in the CreateDevice tutorial from the SDK...I'll see if I can post that code for you...

Cheers
