Rendering/using media files (primarily: *.x files) in XNA from byte array(s)
|
Is there any way to do this? I've been searching around the net some, and the only documented way of loading (and, thus, rendering) meshes on MSDN seems to be to add references to all mesh files inside your project.

Note to aspiring MMO producers!

Creating a *.package archive

Ok, so I've been trying to create a *.package archive successfully for a while now. At first, I tried writing directly to a file, but now I've decided writing directly to a memory stream that I can resize at will seems easier. Below is my entire clas... |

IOCP is NOT hard!

Ach, I'm tired of the general perception in this forum that 'IOCP is hard to learn, and ever harder to use!'
Thought I'd post a few steps;

How on earth would I go about reading a string from a binarystream that, according to this resource looks like this;
'The IFF header is 64 bytes long. The first 60 bytes are the signature, which consists of two strings:

On a similar topic to class inheritance, what's the difference between inheriting a function vs. overriding the function? It would seem that if you inherit then the base function would still get called, but I'm not... |

Well, I'm not exactly sure yet, but if it's of any importance, I'd guesstimate roughly between 3.5 - 5 gigs of uncompressed data. At least a gig of those comes from the meshes alone, which are ASCII *.x files. I might decide to convert them to a bina... |

According to the linked thread, it says you were developing the game in .NET 2.0, not BlitzBasic.
The first time: BlitzBasic, in 9th grade (might have been 8th, actually o_O).
Second time (I.E, now): .NET 2.0, C# |
