Well, it shouldn't take long to set up really. I have mambo installed on my server already. It's really just a case of making ZaPP an admin and getting to work. But I think the wise course is to finish the samples first. But anyway, I'm glad you're finding them easy to read. The particle sample won't use the editor( as I've never used it ). I'll comment every line of the rig though  .

yea, my temporary webspace is up now. I'll explain why i didn't put the common folder in: I didn't have the webspace to host that folder twice. So you can now download it from my webspace, and then put it in the right folder (see top post). Link: http://members.home.nl/bmkuipers/

Ok, the C++ pack now includes:
#14: Simple Text. #15: Simple 2D. #16: Simple Input.
See the top post for the updated download.
The .NETters will have to wait for ZaPP to port the new ones. So, until he posts here saying his end has been updated, only the C++ ones contain the 3 new samples.

C++ pack now includes:
#17: Billboard Particles. #18: Shadow Volumes. #19: HLSL Basic Object.
See the first post for the download link.
Please wait for ZaPP to port to c# or VB.NET before downloading those - as you'll just get the old version if you download them at the moment.
Enjoy!

I translated the first tutorial, but how can I send it to you, so you can put it online? BTW, I can't open the VB.Net tutorials in Visual Studio 2005, it gives an error message telling me the file was created using a newer version...  Is there a solution for that?

Yeah, download VB.net 2008 (express), its better and free! (But visual studio 2008 is even better, but it costs...) EDIT: i think you might still be able to open the forms (form1.vb), so you can see the code.

Yes, I'm translating the code by opening the forms in VS 2005... I've translated 5 tutorials now... There is a little mistake in tutorial 6: 06 loading animated geometry... In Form1.vb, on line 112, this line: UpdateScene() 'Update our scene. We want the cube to spin. Should be something like this, as there is no cube that should be spinned: UpdateScene() 'Update our scene.

Yes that's true... I converted 6 tutorials now, they all work except the 6th one  It renders just a black screen with a white sphere on it (the lightmark)... Rancor doesn't appear, and I can't figure out why...

shsdevries: make sure you've got the latest dll of truevision (the one of 15 may 2008). I had the same problem while converting to VB.NET and C#, but when i installed the latest version, it worked immediately  . It's the download from the website, not from a mirror btw!
