I have a list of video tutorials on my website that I have been planning on doing, but probably will not get around to doing for some time.

As a total newb to Managed DirectX, it would be nice to have some basic tutorials on how to create a device, set up lighting, creating a mesh (both from .x and using the vertex buffer) and how to render..

I Have gotten quite far in a really short time, but there are still lots of things i have problems with, for example the vertexbuffer in MDX...

I have written a stencil buffer tutorial, using jack hoxley's code but it has been edited by me to make it easier. Ill upload it tomorow or day after. Also, when its done, ill upload my directx wrapper's source for 2d/3d (.bas file). Creating a mesh, I think im the first engine in vb(and the first ive ever seen) which can load Unreal Engine compatible meshes(.t3d), but currently without textures(I know how to do so but just havent yet). I know how to load .x meshes and .t3d meshes(more or less, load). Any specific tutorial requests?

Private Sub SetupGeo()  
  
        Dim VB As VertexBuffer  
        Dim mobjVerts(3) As Direct3D.CustomVertex.PositionTextured  
        mobjVerts(0) = New Direct3D.CustomVertex.PositionTextured(0, 0, 0, 0, 0)  
        mobjVerts(1) = New Direct3D.CustomVertex.PositionTextured(1, 0, 0, 1, 0)  
        mobjVerts(2) = New Direct3D.CustomVertex.PositionTextured(1, 1, 0, 1, 1)  
        mobjVerts(3) = New Direct3D.CustomVertex.PositionTextured(0, 1, 0, 0, 1)  
        VB = New Direct3D.VertexBuffer(mobjVerts(0).GetType, 4, D3DDevice, 0, mobjVerts(0).Format, Direct3D.Pool.Managed)  
        VB.SetData(mobjVerts, 0, Direct3D.LockFlags.None)  
        Erase mobjVerts  
    End Sub
