Hi Dark, Well, you know there is always two ways of looking at this. I realise your initial concern seeing it as fooling around and not getting anything done. However, as i see it I learned a lot from experimentation and the time was well spent in terms of research. I have a better idea of what i want and what direction to head in. To put it another way I have a lot of programming skills, and in this case probably too many because I wanted to see witch ones would render the best results. The only way to compare them etc is to write several prototypes and find out which is the best design. Well after two years and two months, as you put it, I have settled upon the best design, or nearly so. I know for sure the basic core of the game is pretty much set in stone. The only component that hasn't been finalized is the sound and that's more a matter of comparing say DirectSound with XAudio2. I've heard good reviews about XAudio2 so that's what I am aiming for audio. Especially, since I have Windows 7, and that was what it was designed for.
Cheers!
