Nope. Maybe someone will write a VB wrapper, but I immensely doubt it.

Do i have to know direct3d if i whant to do a simply "halo world" program, or if i whant to do a program with no grafic?. I mean i will only make a program that gets a *.xml file from internet att remake it and save it on the xobx, do i have to know direct 3d for that?

Hi, guys i wanna make a cd that ppl can install different rom packs anyone got any ideas how i can do this

[Spaceboy727]

hey everyone, im looking to start getting into programming w/ the eventual hope of programming for xbox (not worried about that just yet)  i have a little bit of experience in visual basic and a little bit in c++ as well (i would have to go back and learn either all over again but i have done some basic programming in both a while ago)

now i've read through this post and a few others and what im wondering is for a beginner i've gathered that sdl and c  seem like the best place to start for a beginner, is this true?  if not what programming language would you recommend i study?

[Spaceboy727]

first off, sorry to as so many newbish questions,  i just need a bit of help getting pointed in the right direction

ok, i've gathered a little bit more intel, and i've heard from people in the xfactor channel that SDL doesnt work w/ the ms xdk...true or false?  and also if i was to use sdl and openxdk (openxdk is kind of what im leaning towards, i dont plan on doing anythign super fancy any time soon) would i be better off working on C or C++ to get started.


p.s. thanks for your help jippie, greatly appreciated

false.
1.We have SDLx (thanks to Lantus) for the MS XDK,and it works flawlessly..
2.OpenXDK has SDL support and it seems to work quite well (i haven't tested it yet)
Oh,and stick with C++  

[Spaceboy727]

right on, thanks a lot,  thats the answer i wanted to hear, lol

I'm slightly confused about SDLx. I have the Dec 2003 xdk and have pretty much coded my application using that. But in order to do sounds easiler, I am switching over to SDLx.  How do SDLx and the xdk interact? How would I begin to set up a program intending to use SDLx? Do I use the libsdlx vcproject? Some screenshots of the current program are at www.xcardev.tk

Thanks!
