Game Engine UI Manager
|
I'm currently developping my new 3D game engine from scratch. It runs on windows (Direct3D 11) and on Xbox 360 (Xna 4.0).
I have implemented the UI Manager.
In my previous attempts, I simply positioned all the elements with absolute c... |

Static Vertex Buffers
|
Hi,
Static vertex buffers are good to store static geometry but when you have a big world with a lot of polygons, you don’t want to store all your static geometry in vram. So a dynamic vertex buffer is better because you can upload your stat... |

High order primitives

Are they better than doing adaptive tesselation in software and upload the vertex data to a big dynamic vertex buffer at each tesselation ? |

XNA problem with my game...
|
It is because the Random default constructor uses a Time dependant initial seed value.
So when you are debugging, if you set break points, the initial seed will change. But if you run your game, because the loop is executed really quickly, the ran... |

Buttons, Textboxes etc in XNA
|
XNA doesn't support any controls by default.
You could try to use some third party libraries that use XNA SpriteBatch internally like http://www.tomshane.cz/neoforce/default.aspx

I was thinking of invalidate the next slots but what happen if for example I need to join 2 64K slots into a 128K slot but the next slot is not a 64K slot?

The problem that I have with the sliding slot approche that I have tried to implement is when I need to join slots of the same granularity into a bigger slot.
In order to join two slots, they must follow each other in the vertex buffer. So before... |

So... wha??? (Vertex buffers, transforms, and HW T&L)

Suppose you have a forest on your terrain.
Is it better to have ONE vertex buffer for a tree and then make multiple DrawIndexedPrimitive calls or have put ALL the tree in one big vertex buffer and then make one DrawIndexedPrimiti... |
