Yes, true. I've found that there are an awful lot of paper books on
Java now available on the web. I'm not entirely sure if they are
illegal or if the authors felt like giving.
I've only been using Java for a month now and I have a happy
scrolling single player game. I'm still debating whether to make it
an isometric scroller with 3D objects or sprite-based. Does Java3D
utilise the hardware? In any case, I've noticed that software 3D
rendering in Java has become viable due to the sickening speed of
current computers.
A colleague of mine dug up pretty much what I was looking for:
Java Gotchas:
http://mindprod.com/gotchas.html
Ideally, I'd like to know about more of the same. There's a lot of
documentation on different parts of Java and how to put them
together (thanks to Sun's immense resources) but not enough of the
intricacies. It's similar to when programming on a GUI and the
application listens to a GUI event - is the event sent before or
after the operation?

This particular site seems to have died in the last month. This is
a shame since the "next big thing" for Java and games is on the J2ME
mobiles/PDAs. All they had to do was hold out long enough...

Thanks. I might try and get them on this list at the same time (if
they're not already).
