Drawing Faces in DirectX
|
I'm trying to figure out how to properly create my vertex buffer and index buffer after loading a .obj file.
When I load a .obj file there are 4 sections.
Vertices
Texture Coordinates
Normals
Faces
Now for the sake of simplicity, I have a c... |

.OBJ quad drawing
|
I created a simple .obj loader trying to get a grasp on how model formats are used. Everything loads perfectly fine up until I start trying to draw the model.
I created a simple cube in Maya and exported it as a .obj, it exported it using qua... |

Rough Edges
|
This is my Rough Edges Editor. I worked on it in the month of July for a solid 30 days. I haven't touched it since, and as such the code hasn't been cleaned up much. However, since I won't be touching it for a while yet, I thought I would releas... |

Switcher for Windows Vista
|
This is really cool. Works great on my machine (Win 7 x64) w/ 3 monitors.
The only thing that I noticed that didn't work perfectly was the desktop wallpaper. It seems to shift everything to the left.
Left to Right
Monitor 1 - 1280x1024... |

Google Chrome Extensions
|
I think the only thing not to like is that Google basically owns your life because they now have every piece of information on your every day life.
But if you're okay with that, then everything is good. I know I am :) |

.OBJ quad drawing
|
Never mind...fixed.
My loop was this...
count = mesh->faces.size() * 6;
DWORD* indices = new DWORD[(count)];
for(int i = -1; i < count;i++)
{
DWORD t;
indices[i++] = mesh->faces.front().one.VertexIndex - 1;
indices[i++]... |

Book Recommendations for DX10?
|
There aren't very many D3D10 books out yet. I haven't read Frank Luna's D3D10 book yet but his DirectX 9 version (fairly similar) was well put together.
You could try going off this online book too : http://wiki.gamedev.net/index.php/D3DBook:... |

[C#] Sending mouse clicks to minimized windows
|
You can also set the location of the window to be off the screen.
For example :
this.Location = new Point(-5000, 0);
That will move it 5000 pixels to the left (just in case you have multiple monitors) and it won't be visible anymore. |

DX10 and .x files

It appears that the sdkmesh would be a poor route to follow.

The SDK mesh format used in the samples is a binary format created for the sole purpose of providing an easy way to get mesh... |

DX10 and .x files
|
Just an additive if you did want to use .x files still.
The DirectX SDK comes with a tool called meshconvert.exe
To use it just run the SDK Command Prompt (in the start menu->DirectX SDK folder)
Then type in meshconvert.exe /o outputname.sdkm... |

DX10 and .x files
|
I could be mistaken but I believe tutorial 9 of the SDK shows how to load the Tiny.x mesh into a Direct3D 10 application. |

I really like the www.directxtutorial.com site. He has a fair amount of information on there and it's pretty easy to follow. If you've already used OpenGL though it might be a little slow, or more of a refresher in areas. |
