How are you making 3d graphics in Visual Basic (6 i assume)? That's something that I am very interested in.

By using DirectX 8 Immediate Mode. You can grab a copy of the DX8 SDK from somewhere and read the help files, they're pretty useful.

Just a quik question....is this game anywhere close to a beta test to see whats going on?

Right now the alpha is very user-unfriendly (as are all alphas) and I'm afraid releasing an alpha would just make people complain more.

Believe me, it's for good reason.

What version of VB are you using marshall? I have 6.0 Learning Edition.

Visual Basic 6.0 Enterprise Edition.
For DirectX programming you only need the Learning Edition.

My friend made a 3D Solar System model in VB. I might still have the source files around if you want to peek at the code.
