I think you're missing the power of things here.... take the keyboard for example; Using DirectXEvent you check when a key event occurs and decide whether it's a Key_Up or Key_Down event (look at the numbers); then set a boolean flag If (Event is Key_Down) bKeyPressed = True ElseIf (Event is Key_Up) bKeyPressed = False End if therefore, the flag will be true from the time the key down occurs until the time a subsequent key_up is triggered... follow? then, in the main loop write some code into a procedure that checks the state of a key, and if true performs that action... If bKeyPressed = True then 'Move the player around End if Not too hard really :) Jack;
