  im looking for good DX Books  (DX 9) that teach you how to actually make games in DX and im also looking for adv DX techniques too thanx   
  Have you looked through the list on this website?There are several in there that are about specific advanced techniques. You dont specify which sub-API you want (Sound,3D,Input...) so I have no idea if they'll be of any use.The "Game Programming Gems" series are also very useful - but less API/platform specific.hthJack
