Was wondering if there are anything equivalent in DirectX10? Or can I use these functions to manipulate the buffer?
Reason... |

Ok, so the topic is a bit misleading. Personally, I'm fine with reading file format specs and implementing them. But I'm fairly new to DirectX programming, so I'd like to know how one would normally implement it.
Eg, the MD2 format. Do I use... |

Help with Direct3D Normals

Hi,
I know that this is like one of the simplest, most basic concepts, but I just can't get it to work with Direct3D. I haven't been in touch with 3D math/programming for more than 6 months now, so do correct me wherever I'm wrong.

Problems drawing a model

hi! I've created a function that's responsible of loading in a text-file-based model, and another function to draw the whole model. Well, I dare say that all the vertices position have been correctly imported, since the function successfully draws th... |
