Did i really miss this? How long has this been C++ standard?

// example constructor
D3D_Engine::D3D_Engine()
{
         int test1 = 0, test2 = 0;
}

//Initializer List
D3D_Engine::D3D_Engine()
         : test1(0), test2(0)
{
}

You just missed it, bub.

Also you need to take out the "int" if you meant them to be the same. Otherwise the first one is just declaring some unused variables.

Initialiser lists predate any C++ standard (draft or otherwise). They date back at least as far as the ARM (the Annotated Reference Manual) which was published by Ellis and Stroustrup in 1990, and was one of the base documents for C++ standardisation process.

1990, that's almost before Kilo was born.
