DDS Loading in .NET 2.0
|
Is there any function to load a DDS file into a bitmap? (ie: to be used on a button or some other gui element).
.Net is so huge I would have imagined that such a function would be built in, however if it is I have yet to find it. I wrote some... |

Texture Mapping problems
|
How does one reliably render a pre-transformed textured quad without getting scaling artifacting?
I can easily do this with a power of 2 texture, but when I try to use anything that is not a power of 2 the texture gets stretched (even though... |

GetCurrentPosition Failed?

DirectSound question.
I create the buffer and set it to play.
It starts playing (I can hear it play the first buffered piece)
But then when this code runs:
DWORD playCursor = 0;
HRESULT result = buffer->GetCurrentPosition(&playCursor,... |

Debug Mode
|
After a bit of aggravation I can now change the debug level in DirectSound. Where does this debug information go though? Is there a log file somewhere that holds all DirectSound error logs?

DrawIndexedPrimitive

Hello, I am having trouble with DrawIndexedPrimitive. The terrain in the game that we are making is being drawn in chunks with calls to drawindexedprimitive. Each chunk uses the same index buffer but we offset the vertex it is pointing to when we ren... |

Ogg Vorbis ov_open

My question is simple. Why doesn't this work? It gives me a seg fault when ov_open is called. It never hits any of my message boxes. Any help would be great.

IDirectSoundBuffer8 from DirectMusic?

I am trying to stream ogg files in DirectMusic. I have read that to stream music you just need a IDirectSoundBuffer and then lock it and write new data when the old data has been played. It all looks pretty good and simple, but how do I get an IDirec... |

DirectMusic Theory

Just had a couple questions that I was hoping someone could help clarify.
Say I have a sound segment. I want to play this sound segment in three different 3D locations at the same time. To do this, would I need 3 audioPaths? I am assuming so, but... |

DDS Loading in .NET 2.0
|
I would recommend loading the DDS texture from disk and decompressing it manually. Wikipedia does an ok job of describing the format. Once you understand it, it is not too difficult to decompress. |

DDS Loading in .NET 2.0
|
yeah, I already wrote a custom loader in c++ so it is pretty trivial to move it to managed c++. Thought I would try anyway.

DDS Loading in .NET 2.0
|
We are using them as textures for our game. I only need to display samples of them in my application. It looks like it will be easier to just load them manually rather than start up DirectX just for loading textures.
Thanks,

Texture Mapping problems

I was thinking more like doing it automatically when I load the image from disk, using the image dimensions from the file instead of having a seperate text file. |

Texture Mapping problems

okay, I fixed the problem with the texels not lining up with the pixels. Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, I am still not having the results I wanted. This is because the texture is being scaled up to the closest power of two, just as you said.

Am I missing something with this debug mode thing? It seems to be giving very little info.

Cranked up DirectSound debug and am using Dbgview.exe. Tells me that Directsound starts, and then nothing. No errors at all.
