   2D Tile-Based Games
  Anyone know of any good books which cover programming 2D tile-based games with DirectX?Thanks.   
I have this It teaches you how to make a 2D RPG. The world is drawn using tiles. You will learn alot from this book. Good luck.   ;  GameDev has a list of DirectX Books, of which Focus on 2D might be of interest. I've got a copy in storage somewhere (been a while!) but I remember the "Focus On" series being pretty good. Less waffle more useful stuff [smile]hthJack   ;  The gamedev articles page has a whole section dedicated to tile based/isometric game programming which might be of use to you. =)
