I've been playing around with regular objects and such trying to create nice applications, but making stuff slide in using a left+n doesn't really work that well.
Ah well. I decided to do something I swore I'd never do, learn DirectX (or DelphiX?). But I can't really figure out how it works, so I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions where to read more about it.

I live in a Really small town, so the library is not an option.. sadly..

I actually tried that before posting :)
Either I'm just really bad at searching, or most stuff about DelphiX is in chinese or russian, which I don't understand.

it's actually Japanese and Russian. However many of tutorails are in Polish.

So I'm in very comfortable situation as I know Polish, English and Russian on very good level, and Japanese only a little, so there's no problem for me... You however... Well...

On google there are about 10900 pages responding to DephiX tutorial query, so web isn't friendly for you, it's fiendly. Try it the other way around: ditch DelphiX away and take translated DirectX headers and work your way in normal DirectX mode. Tutorials will be mostly in C but I hope ou won't have any problems with it.

There something on about.com that seems to be good for starting:
