Hello, My name is Matt Childress ("MadMatt" in the FlatAssembler forum), I've converted various Windows programming book's source code from c/c++ into Flat Assembler code. I have a lot of fun programming in assembly (reminds me of my commodore 64 days! ;>}), and thought I would share these examples with everyone so they can learn that it is not that difficult to make a decent windows/directx program using the excellent Flat Assembler (FasmW) by Tomasz Grysztar. It will help you understand the examples more if you had the books to go along with these examples, but they are not required. Because some of the examples require various DLL files, you should download the DLL.rar file (see bottom of webpage). If you want to re-compile any of the examples, then follow the steps below to set everything up:
***
I have upload my full fasmw work environment, which will have a
lot of benefits.
1. no complicated setup procedure, everythings already setup for
you!
2. You won't have to mess up your own fasmw envionment.
3. you now have a folder to put all the (future) examples into.
*NOTE: "FASMW.zip" must be extracted into your root
directory (c:\). Also, you should use
the fasmw.exe in my folder rather than yours so the examples will
compile properly.

Here
is the final update to my fasmw 64-bit package, I'll be going
back to 32-bit programming
now, enjoy!

Thanks
to Mircrosoft for releasing the Windows 7 64bit beta build for
free, I now can
present to you an assembly 64-bit package that you can download:
FASMW64.zip. I have
converted the core includes from the 32bit package to work with
64bit programming now. I mainly
created this to do some 64bit Direct3D and DirectDraw
programming. Because the Windows 7 beta
will expire August 1st, I won't be starting any major projects
with this package. But, I will post
some more include and example updates before windows 7 trial
period ends. Extract package to
your root directory c:\ and use the fasmw.exe from the folder you
just extracted to recompile the
examples.

Well,
FINALLY, I have some new updates! I've re-organized the examples
into different
programming packages, they are: DirectX7, DirectX8, DirectX9,
DirectX10, OpenGL, Windows
Programming (including some DOS Examples), TurboAsmDD (my
DirectDraw Library, also
includes some fMod examples), FASMW, My whole FasmW compiler
folder for recompiling the
examples EXACTLY as they are, including major
enhancements/additions to the include folder and
pcount (parameter count) folder, plus other mods and
enhancements!, and, finally, the DLL folder
for the dll files the examples require. I've also made an
"all in one" file which includes the
examples/compiler above, for those with broadband. I suggest
re-downloading all the examples
because of the new addtional, and, better error handling code.
Three more major anouncements concerning the example folders
listed above:
FIRST, all the files will now be in the ".zip" format
after some reports
of problems with the ".rar" format. SECOND, I've
re-structured the error checking code in
ALL the code base because the previous was buggy and inconsistant
in its implementations. And,
THIRD, I've added some DirectX10 examples for those with Windows
Vista OS (These will not work
with Windows XP or earlier.)
I've also added a major windows include "mshtml.inc' to the
include mix, along with other minor
tweaks and enhancements. I'm also working on a new and improved
winsock2.inc, but won't
be ready until after the new year, or so. One final note, I'm
hoping to be able to post some internet
examples (launching Explorer, data sending/receiving,
client/server, etc.) for a future update.
I guess that's about all! Any question or comments email me, or
join a discussion in the flat
assembler forums! Enjoy! 
!!Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

It's
been awhile, sorry about that. I'm going to focus more of my
attention on maintaining the include directory (except macros)
and doing more indiviual examples (masm to fasm), rather than a
whole book of examples (programming windows Charles Petzold). One
last thing, I've decided to upload my complete fasmw compiler
system (minus a few personal projects)
"FASMW16726.rar".
see above^.
More updates for:
Direct3D Examples - Codesampler.com: Added examples 23 - 28
Programming Windows (Charles Petzold): A few previous examples
fixed, one partial chapter 22.
Masm to fasm examples: Some examples added.
*added new opengl examples: "More Opengl.rar".
Update
News: January 27, 2008
Because
of limited upload space on my website (less than 10mb), I've
decided to try using a free online file storage space. I'll be
getting 5GB! of storage. This will help me free up a LOT of space
on my website, and allow me to upload MUCH more assembly examples
without concern about running out of storage space. Hopefully the
majority of you will not have a problem downloading the examples.
Should also tell you that there are TWO pages for the downloads
currently, you'll have to click the "2" at the bottom
of the list to see the rest of the examples
I've finished the opengl Examples, and the download is renamed
to: Beginning OpenGL.rar

Merry
Christmas and Happy New Year (better late than never, I guess.)!
Some more updates. There is a new section for older examples not
being worked on anymore and/or are finished.
Programming
Windows (Charles Petzold): Added Chapters 19-20 (Almost finished
with this
example set)
Old OpenGL renewed: Many examples added (Almost finished with
this example set also)
Masm to fasm examples: Many examples added
Direct3D Examples - Codesampler.com: Added examples 21, 22
*Minor Additions to the INCLUDE folder.
Update
News: October 12, 2007
Minor
update to the "3D Game programming with DirectX 9.0"
examples. Fixed a minor bug in all the code where I was using
invoke instead of cinvoke for a crtdll.dll->memset function
call.
Update News: September 5, 2007
Major
Updates to the source code, Minor Updates to the webpage.
"Old OpenGL renewed" examples are completely re-done to
work on Windows Vista and XP better, glut32 Initialization code
crashes on Vista so had to do the Initialize routines in raw
windows code, so the result should work on these systems:
Win98se, win2000, winxp, win-Vista. "Masm to Fasm
examples" are much of the masm 'examples folder' converted
to work with Flat Assembler, still have some to go though. Also
added a few gdi-plus examples. The "Direct 3d Examples"
are from "Codesampler.com", These examples
are very well done, short and to the point, and convert rather
easily to fasmw assembly, so lots of examples here. Decided to
repost the "windows game programming for dummies"
examples, you can get them at the flat assembler forum (see link
at bottom of this webpage).
