Thanks for any >suggestions Hi Robert, If you have a look on the "Decor" section of our site www.sidhe.co.nz you will find a bunch of reference books that we use at the bottom. Although this isn't a complete list of all the books we use to help produce our games, the books that are listed are considered the industry standard in game reference material by a number of software houses (especially "The C Programming Language" and "Computers Graphics - Principles and Practice"). Clicking on the title of the book from this page will bring up the Amazon.com summary page for that book if you want more information, reader reviews, or want to order it (and I'll say now that Amazon.com IS a sponsor of ours :) ). Hope this helps. Mario Wynands Sidhe Interactive Sony Playstation Software Development House Email mario@sidhe.co.nz Website www.sidhe.co.nz
