Is this what you wanted?

Yeah told you I didn't understand the matrices stuff lol, I'm still pretty new to the 3D part of dx.

could do an if statement in PutPixel to check if X or Y values are on screen then draw if not then do nothing.

if( x >= 0 && x < SCREENWIDTH)
{
if( y >= 0 && y < SCREENHEIGHT)
{
// put drawing code here;
}
}

cameraX = radius * cos(angleinradians) cameraZ = radius * sin(angleinradians) radius would be the distance form car. angleinradians would be carlAngle + 180, this part I'm not sure on, the camera is on the opposite side of the circle the car is facing, but the camera is also facing the same directio...

I call messy code that works, the "brute force" method. That's usually how I start coding then refine it later, which is a pain in the ass sometimes because it turns out like a beautiful piece of crap.

Thanks LuX, that function isn't used at the moment,but if I do use it at some point I'll make those changes or remove it from the project, and I have been using that same method of setting to nullptr after deleting, biggest reason I do it is because even after delete, the address is still there so d...

Wow, I went back and reread all the posts, you aren't even the same guy I thought you were. I think there was another thread that I was thinking of, though I still feel that anyone can learn the language from these videos and probably a lot faster than in a school setting like you said, as long as y...

Thanks chili, that's what we ended up realizing is we would have to use double pointers.

Very surprised. Like I said I don't understand what you are trying to get at. Yes chili's approach is different than in class, it's not interactive in real time. That's what the forum is for I guess. So, what is it that you want to know? What do you want to get from these tutorials, that you don't f...

In other words, the Windows API is up to us. cheers
