[Fixed]Basic DirectX/C++ Shader Problem (Normals)
|
Hi all,
I'm having a really simple issue with a shader under DirectX with C++. My objects have a very basic directional lighting effect applied, but it appears as though it doesn't react to the normals correctly... it seems as if the lighting is p... |

Hi all,
Have scoured the internet for a while and not found a solution yet so I wonder if you guys could help me:
I'm drawing a sizable amount of sprites per frame, and am using a single 'sprite sheet' image to contain all the individual sprite... |

D3DXMatrixRotationY - Vector Query
|
Hi all,
I have an object facing (float) degrees, and I'd like to move it forwards (relative to its current facing) on a flat terrain (across X and Z, Y is automatically calculated).
I understand giving the facing float to D3DXMatrixRotatio... |

XInput / 360 controller emulation
|
Hi all,
As part of my course, we are required to build an app that supports the Xbox 360 Controllers for PC. I currently don't have a 360 Controller, just an old 'PS2-style' controller :( Is there a chance that my standard controller could be... |

D3DXMESH Editing Vertices

Hi all, really quick question, don't want to be wasting your time:
I'm rendering a .x model using C++ DirectX9, using a D3DXMESH object (well, a LPD3DXMESH object to be exact). I would like to move this mesh, but not the camera (as there are other... |

SDL Current Working Directory

Hello all,
First time using SDL and embarassingly I'm baffled at trying to compile a simple demo.
I'm through the first few hoops of linking and setting up the correct definitions for SDL and SDL_Image, but the problem is that when running, th... |

Easy Question-C++ Dissecting an int for char use

I need/want to update the screen each frame with the score.
I have an int value: playerScore, and a DrawChar() function
- DrawChar(short x, short y, const char c, short colour)
I'd rea... |

Hi everyone :D
I'm a 2nd year Computer Games Programming student in Derby, England, and over the past 4 months we have been thrown through an intensive C++ course, which I found very useful but still very taxing.
I was really bored over Christm... |

[Fixed]Basic DirectX/C++ Shader Problem (Normals)
|
Woohoo fixed it! Well, sort of. :|
I replaced the ' matViewInverseTranspose ' part in the shader with ' World ' and it just works.
However now I'm confused as to why. I was sure that I should mult the object's inverse view matrix with the norma... |

D3DXSprite Scaling anti-aliasing (Texture Filtering) issue (Solved)

WOOHOO :) Added MinFilter as well and it works perfectly!
V( pd3dDevice->SetSamplerState(0, D3DSAMP_MAGFILTER, D3DTEXF_POINT) );
V( pd3dDevice->SetSamplerState(0, D3DSAMP_MINFILTER, D3DTEXF_POINT) );
Thankyou Sc4Freak - really appr... |

D3DXSprite Scaling anti-aliasing (Texture Filtering) issue (Solved)

Thankyou! It helps me to understand what I'm talking about, so yes I mean Texture Filtering.
However, I have implemented the SetSamplerState code directly after spriteObject->Begin(), and it doesn't seem to make a difference. Do I need to creat... |

Trying to track down Index Buffer problem

I had a similar problem with DirectX - when copying over the verts into a mesh I copied by WORD instead of by DWORD - DX in particular doesn't seem to mind if a mesh is half-empty. What helped me was placing asserts everywhere to check the vert locat... |

D3DXMatrixRotationY - Vector Query

I think I've got it - similar to how the camera does it - extracting m11 and m31 for x and z from this matrix rotation gives me the floats I desire :)
Thanks anyway guys :P |

XInput / 360 controller emulation
|
The task we have been set is an odd one - it's a graphics demo; terrain, objects, cameras, that sort of thing, but a core requirement is that we use the Xbox360 Controllers, and I guess as a result, XInput.
I didn't particularly fancy shellin... |

That's perfect! Thankyou so much, you've been such a great help, Sc4Freak :D
My thinking made the whole thing seem really odd previously, but knowing that makes a lot of things fall into place in my head now.
Thankyou again :D |

3D transforms. use a translation.
Thanks, I'm actually looking for more of an answer to as why ID3DXMesh itself doesn't encapsulate a translation function, perhaps some typical methods to overcome this, or some ki... |

Update FYI:
Copied libpng12-0.dll into the debug folder, using the old .png images, and it runs perfectly :)
Thanks to all again for your help :) |
