hi, I am a little bit confused with texturing stuff. I tried to learn reading the directx tutorial but there is so many thing that I am lost. Is someone know a good tutorial where I could learn vocabulary and theory before going to the practice. thank you for your help!!!!

The best place you can learn theory about textures is always gonna be from a book, I suggest Programming Role Play Games, or Special Effects Game Programming. Other that, if your skint like me all the time then I suggest Andy Pikes website is the best place to learn. You can find his site at http://www.andypike.com.
Look for the ''Tutorials'' section!

great tutorials!!!

thank you very much!!!!

Another good tutorial site is Drunken Hyena
