   Directx 8 book
  Anyone here can suggest me a good Directx 8 book? I have Tricks of the Windows Game Programming Gurus but it only teaches Directx 7. I know programming, so the Directx 8 book should be something like TOTWGPGThanks 
  You can see the postings (positive and negative) on Jim Adam''s book. Programming Role-Playing Games in DirectX 8. (Under the topic ("For Jim Adams&quot;  If you''re going to start with something new, start with DirectX 9.  Why start with 8?   I like pie. ;  What does Programming Role-Playing Games in DirectX 8 cover anyway? Well, if I were to learn directx 9, which book is recommended for Unmanaged Directx 9 for C++?Thanks for the replies!
