Ok, I'm a c++ programmer. Well sorta, I'm not really the best. I got this book on C++ its really good. Its called C++ for the absolute beginner (I'm not really a beginner...well...kinda) Its a really good book and by the end of the book it has you making a game using the direct x graphics library. I have one question, will that be enough. At the end of this book, will I know wnough to start with irrlicht. This book gets a little more advanced than it sounds, it goes huge, teaches you alot, even Hexadecimal (I already knew that. Am in the 7 grade and homechooled, learned that in the first few days). Will this be enough to start? I wont be alone. I know someone who 3d models, we're using blender, audacity for sound, photoshop for textures, etc. Thanks in advance

You don't need to know DirectX to use Irrlicht, but knowing DX can help you to customize Irrlicht to your needs.

Then again, what I just posted only applies for Direct3D, since Irrlicht doesn't handle anything except graphics and some physics.

that book is a better start then some of us had..

if that answers your question..

heck try the demo files included with Irrlicht might save you alot f reading...

or not.
