Luna's excellent book Introduction to 3D Game Programming with DirectX 12. No representation is made that the source code belongs to me, it's simply reproduced here for convenience (so you don't need to dig up the physical media of the book) and remains the copyright of Frank D. Luna. Note that this is for the first edition of the book; did you know there's a second edition? The second edition is up-to-date and has expanded content, so I recommend you purchase the second edition. I have an equivalent fork of the second edition source code. Building You'll need Visual Studio 2026 with the Desktop development with C++ and Game development with C++ Visual Studio workloads. Once you've satisfied these requirements, you should be able to open any of the included SLN files, build, and run the sample apps. Obviously, you also need to have a GPU that supports DirectX 12 for the samples to work correctly. Changes All projects have been updated to use Visual Studio 2026 and retargeted to the latest Windows SDK. For convenience, an additional solution file AllProjects.sln has been added that includes all the projects. Additionally, the original code doesn't compile in C++20 and later standards due to MSVC rejecting passing pointers to temporaries as arguments to function calls. This has also been fixed.
