Hi
Im developing a checkers game under vb.net
2D board is easy, but how to develop a 3D board.
http://www.deltmar.ee/mex/laud.jpg like this one i designed in Rhino3D
Is there any 3D engine for .NET or any other solution
DirectX
I have no glue, where to begin ;)!
Best regards;

You have two ways:
1) Harder way : write a mini-3d engine using Managed DX - http://msdn.microsoft.com/directx/sdk/ - here is a DirectX SDK (0,5 GB) with many examples how to do it
2)Easier way : Download a already written 3D engine like:
-Irrlicht Engine http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/
-TrueVision3D http://www.truevision3d.com/home.php (but there wasnt any new relases from two years)
-or just type in google "free 3d engine for NET"
hope it helps

funny, I had the urge to play checkers recently....so now I've subscribed to this thread, I can't wait till you get this all up and running :-) No doubt I will be testing it to the extreme...and report back bugs :-P
Keep up the good work!
