Xna Goodies - tips and notes for the Xna Framework.

Read stuff about Xna, its cool.

If you've tried loading a 3D model into XNA with the Content Pipeline then you may have come across a problem with the textures. The problem is that, by default, textures referenced by 3D models are processed using the ModelTextureProcessor which does colour keying, mipmap generation and converts the textures to a DXT compressed format. While this default processing could be considered useful in some cases, many times its not what the you expect, also I commonly use DDS textures that are already in the correct runtime format with the correct amount of mipmaps (sometimes I want mipmaps sometimes not) so I don't need any extra processing from the content pipeline, I just need it to 'pass through' the DDS textures.\n\nI have created a new model, material and texture processor that will just pass through any DDS textures while doing the usual processing on any other texture file formats. Thanks to the Content Pipeline's flexible design these were very easy to write as I just had to derive from other processors and then override a method or two.\n\nSee DDSPassThroughProcessorsSource for the source code, you'll need to look in the XNA docs to see how to add processors to the Content Pipeline. Once you have them installed in your project then you just use the {{{Model (DDS Passthrough)}}} processor for your models instead of the default one.

I've created a Visual Studio project template to create projects that you can build for Xbox 360 or Windows, by selecting the appropriate platform in the Visual Studio IDE. Each configuration/platform combination has the usual definitions and build settings, so you can use {{{#if XBOX360}}} and so on to deal with platform differences. This solves some of the problems that people have had with having to keep two projects, one for each platform, synchronised. Now you only need one project.\n\nThe XNA devs have said that they don't support this at the moment so you're on your own if you use it, we're finding it very useful though. @@Late change: Stephen Styrchak was kind enough to respond on the XNA forums and had some more information about this. I've taken the liberty of copying his post [[StephStyrchakRespondsOnDualPlatforms]].@@\n\nSee the [[DualPlatform Download and Installation Instructions]] to get it.

There are various ways to see the debug output from ~DirectX. In Visual Studio Pro you can see it in the Output pane, if you have the Platform SDK installed then you can use a tool called ~DbgMon but my prefered tool is [[DebugView|http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/DebugView.html]] from the excelent [[SysInternals|http://www.sysinternals.com]] site. Go download it, install it somewhere in your path, or create a shortcut to it. Get some of the other tools from their site while you're there too, they're all good.

Welcome to your brand new [[MonkeyPirateTiddlyWiki|http://simonbaird.com/mptw/]]. This is the standard empty [[TiddlyWiki|http://www.tiddlywiki.com/]] (version <<version>>) preconfigured with a few bits and pieces from MPTW, in particular the layout, the colours, and the popular [[TagglyTagging|http://simonbaird.com/mptw/#TagglyTagging]]. If you're new to ~TagglyTagging then try the [[FAQ|http://simonbaird.com/mptw/#TagglyTaggingFAQ]] and [[Tutorial|http://simonbaird.com/mptw/#TagglyTaggingTutorial]].\n\nTo get started with this blank TiddlyWiki, you'll need to modify the following tiddlers:\n* SiteTitle & SiteSubtitle: The title and subtitle of the site, as shown above (after saving, they will also appear in the browser title bar)\n* MainMenu: The menu (usually on the left)\n* DefaultTiddlers: Contains the names of the tiddlers that you want to appear when the TiddlyWiki is opened\nYou'll also need to enter your username for signing your edits: <<option txtUserName>>\n\nTo create your own tiddlers, click 'new tiddler' in the right sidebar. To edit a tiddler click the 'edit' button in the tiddler's toolbar. To save all your tiddlers click 'save changes' in the right sidebar. If you're new to TiddlyWiki check out the formatting info [[here|http://www.tiddlywiki.com/#MainFeatures]].\n\nUse this to import tiddlers from another TiddlyWiki. You can use a local file (click Browse...) or type the url of an online TiddlyWiki.\n<<importTiddlers inline>>\nTo change your colour scheme you can edit the styles in StyleSheet. (Refer to StyleSheetColors and StyleSheetLayout for all styles used).\n\n

This is a place for me to put out the occasional article on the [[XNA Framework|http://msdn.microsoft.com/directx/XNA/default.aspx]].\n\nThese words are on your screen courtesy of [[tiddlyspot|http://tiddlyspot.com]] and [[tiddlywiki|http://tiddlywiki.com]], many thanks to them.

@@The release version of XNA automatically enables build configurations. So this is not needed.@@\n\nVisual Studio Express has simplified the IDE a little to make it easier for beginners. This can be a little irritating for those of us who have some experience with Visual Studio and are just using the Express version because of XNA. Fortunately you can enable some of those missing bits.\n\nTo get the configuration stuff you need to:\n\n* Tools/Options\n* Select "Show All Options"\n* Select the "Project and Solutions" section\n* Enable "Show Advanced Build Configurations"\n\nNow you can select to build Debug or Release and also select the Platform.

/***\n''Import Tiddlers Plugin for TiddlyWiki version 1.2.x and 2.0''\n^^author: Eric Shulman - ELS Design Studios\nsource: http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ImportTiddlersPlugin\nlicense: [[Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 License|http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/]]^^\n\nWhen many people share and edit copies of the same TiddlyWiki document, the ability to quickly collect all these changes back into a single, updated document that can then be redistributed to the entire group is very important. This plugin lets you selectively combine tiddlers from any two TiddlyWiki documents. It can also be very useful when moving your own tiddlers from document to document (e.g., when upgrading to the latest version of TiddlyWiki, or 'pre-loading' your favorite stylesheets into a new 'empty' TiddlyWiki document.)\n\n!!!!!Inline interface (live)\n<<<\n<<importTiddlers inline>>\n<<<\n!!!!!Macro Syntax\n<<<\n{{{<<importTiddlers>>}}}\ncreates "import tiddlers" link. click to show/hide import control panel\n\n{{{<<importTiddlers inline>>}}}\ncreates import control panel directly in tiddler content\n\n{{{<<importTiddlers filter source quiet ask>>}}}\nnon-interactive 'automatic' import.\n''filter'' determines which tiddlers will be automatically selected for importing. Use one of the following keywords:\n>''"new"'' retrieves only tiddlers that are found in the import source document, but do not yet exist in the destination document\n>''"changes"'' retrieves only tiddlers that exist in both documents for which the import source tiddler is newer than the existing tiddler\n>''"updates"'' retrieves both ''new'' and ''changed'' tiddlers (this is the default action when none is specified)\n>''"all"'' retrieves ALL tiddlers from the import source document, even if they have not been changed.\n''source'' is the location of the imported document. It can be either a local document or an URL:\n>filename is any local path/file, in whatever format your system requires\n>URL is any remote web location that starts with "http://" or "https://"\n''"quiet"'' (optional)\n>supresses all status message during the import processing (e.g., "opening local file...", "found NN tiddlers..." etc). Note that if ANY tiddlers are actualy imported, a final information message will still be displayed (along with the ImportedTiddlers report), even when 'quiet' is specified. This ensures that changes to your document cannot occur without any visible indication at all.\n''"ask"'' (optional)\n>adds interactive confirmation. A browser message box (OK/Cancel) is displayed for each tiddler that will be imported, so that you can manually bypass any tiddlers that you do not want to import.\n\n''Special tag values: importReplace and importPublic''\n\nBy adding these special tags to an existing tiddler, you can precisely control whether or not to allow updates to that tiddler as well as decide which tiddlers in your document can be automatically imported by others.\n*''For maximum safety, the default action is to prevent existing tiddlers from being unintentionally overwritten by incoming tiddlers.'' To allow an existing tiddler to be overwritten by an imported tiddler, you must tag the existing tiddler with ''<<tag importReplace>>''\n*''For maximum privacy, the default action for //outgoing// tiddlers is to NOT automatically share your tiddlers with others.'' To allow a tiddler in your document to be shared via auto-import actions by others, you must tag it with ''<<tag importPublic>>''\n//Note: these tags are only applied when using the auto-import processing. When using the interactive control panel, all tiddlers in the imported document are available in the listbox, regardless of their tag values.//\n<<<\n!!!!!Interactive Usage\n<<<\nWhen used interactively, a control panel is displayed consisting of an "import source document" filename input (text field plus a ''[Browse...]'' button), a listbox of available tiddlers, a "differences only" checkbox, an "add tags" input field and four push buttons: ''[open]'', ''[select all]'', ''[import]'' and ''[close]''.\n\nPress ''[browse]'' to select a TiddlyWiki document file to import. You can also type in the path/filename or a remote document URL (starting with http://)and press ''[open]''. //Note: There may be some delay to permit the browser time to access and load the document before updating the listbox with the titles of all tiddlers that are available to be imported.//\n\nSelect one or more titles from the listbox (hold CTRL or SHIFT while clicking to add/remove the highlight from individual list items). You can press ''[select all]'' to quickly highlight all tiddler titles in the list. Use the ''[-]'', ''[+]'', or ''[=]'' links to adjust the listbox size so you can view more (or less) tiddler titles at one time. When you have chosen the tiddlers you want to import and entered any extra tags, press ''[import]'' to begin copying them to the current TiddlyWiki document.\n\n''select: all, new, changes, or differences''\n\nYou can click on ''all'', ''new'', ''changes'', or ''differences'' to automatically select a subset of tiddlers from the list. This makes it very quick and easy to find and import just the updated tiddlers you are interested in:\n>''"all"'' selects ALL tiddlers from the import source document, even if they have not been changed.\n>''"new"'' selects only tiddlers that are found in the import source document, but do not yet exist in the destination document\n>''"changes"'' selects only tiddlers that exist in both documents but that are newer in the source document\n>''"differences"'' selects all new and existing tiddlers that are different from the destination document (even if destination tiddler is newer)\n\n''Import Tagging:''\n\nTiddlers that have been imported can be automatically tagged, so they will be easier to find later on, after they have been added to your document. New tags are entered into the "add tags" input field, and then //added// to the existing tags for each tiddler as it is imported.\n\n''Skip, Rename, Merge, or Replace:''\n\nWhen importing a tiddler whose title is identical to one that already exists, the import process pauses and the tiddler title is displayed in an input field, along with four push buttons: ''[skip]'', ''[rename]'', ''[merge]'' and ''[replace]''.\n\nTo bypass importing this tiddler, press ''[skip]''. To import the tiddler with a different name (so that both the tiddlers will exist when the import is done), enter a new title in the input field and then press ''[rename]''. Press ''[merge]'' to combine the content from both tiddlers into a single tiddler. Press ''[replace]'' to overwrite the existing tiddler with the imported one, discarding the previous tiddler content.\n\n//Note: if both the title ''and'' modification date/////time match, the imported tiddler is assumed to be identical to the existing one, and will be automatically skipped (i.e., not imported) without asking.//\n\n''Import Report History''\n\nWhen tiddlers are imported, a report is generated into ImportedTiddlers, indicating when the latest import was performed, the number of tiddlers successfully imported, from what location, and by whom. It also includes a list with the title, date and author of each tiddler that was imported.\n\nWhen the import process is completed, the ImportedTiddlers report is automatically displayed for your review. If more tiddlers are subsequently imported, a new report is //added// to ImportedTiddlers, above the previous report (i.e., at the top of the tiddler), so that a reverse-chronological history of imports is maintained.\n\nIf a cumulative record is not desired, the ImportedTiddlers report may be deleted at any time. A new ImportedTiddlers report will be created the next time tiddlers are imported.\n\nNote: You can prevent the ImportedTiddlers report from being generated for any given import activity by clearing the "create a report" checkbox before beginning the import processing.\n\n<<<\n!!!!!Installation\n<<<\ncopy/paste the following tiddlers into your document:\n''ImportTiddlersPlugin'' (tagged with <<tag systemConfig>>)\n\ncreate/edit ''SideBarOptions'': (sidebar menu items) \n^^Add "< < ImportTiddlers > >" macro^^\n\n''Quick Installation Tip #1:''\nIf you are using an unmodified version of TiddlyWiki (core release version <<version>>), you can get a new, empty TiddlyWiki with the Import Tiddlers plugin pre-installed (''[[download from here|TW+ImportExport.html]]''), and then simply import all your content from your old document into this new, empty document.\n<<<\n!!!!!Revision History\n<<<\n''2006.02.17 [2.6.0]''\nRemoved "differences only" listbox display mode, replaced with selection filter 'presets': all/new/changes/differences. Also fixed initialization handling for "add new tags" so that checkbox state is correctly tracked when panel is first displayed.\n''2006.02.16 [2.5.4]''\nadded checkbox options to control "import remote tags" and "keep existing tags" behavior, in addition to existing "add new tags" functionality.\n''2006.02.14 [2.5.3]''\nFF1501 corrected unintended global 't' (loop index) in importReport() and autoImportTiddlers()\n''2006.02.10 [2.5.2]''\ncorrected unintended global variable in importReport().\n''2006.02.05 [2.5.1]''\nmoved globals from window.* to config.macros.importTiddlers.* to avoid FireFox 1.5.0.1 crash bug when referencing globals\n''2006.01.18 [2.5.0]''\nadded checkbox for "create a report". Default is to create/update the ImportedTiddlers report. Clear the checkbox to skip this step.\n''2006.01.15 [2.4.1]''\nadded "importPublic" tag and inverted default so that auto sharing is NOT done unless tagged with importPublic\n''2006.01.15 [2.4.0]''\nAdded support for tagging individual tiddlers with importSkip, importReplace, and/or importPrivate to control which tiddlers can be overwritten or shared with others when using auto-import macro syntax. Defaults are to SKIP overwriting existing tiddlers with imported tiddlers, and ALLOW your tiddlers to be auto-imported by others.\n''2006.01.15 [2.3.2]''\nAdded "ask" parameter to confirm each tiddler before importing (for use with auto-importing)\n''2006.01.15 [2.3.1]''\nStrip TW core scripts from import source content and load just the storeArea into the hidden IFRAME. Makes loading more efficient by reducing the document size and by preventing the import document from executing its TW initialization (including plugins). Seems to resolve the "Found 0 tiddlers" problem. Also, when importing local documents, use convertUTF8ToUnicode() to convert the file contents so support international characters sets.\n''2006.01.12 [2.3.0]''\nReorganized code to use callback function for loading import files to support event-driven I/O via an ASYNCHRONOUS XMLHttpRequest. Let's processing continue while waiting for remote hosts to respond to URL requests. Added non-interactive 'batch' macro mode, using parameters to specify which tiddlers to import, and from what document source. Improved error messages and diagnostics, plus an optional 'quiet' switch for batch mode to eliminate //most// feedback.\n''2006.01.11 [2.2.0]''\nAdded "[by tags]" to list of tiddlers, based on code submitted by BradleyMeck\n''2006.01.09 [2.1.1]''\nWhen a URL is typed in, and then the "open" button is pressed, it generates both an onChange event for the file input and a click event for open button. This results in multiple XMLHttpRequest()'s which seem to jam things up quite a bit. I removed the onChange handling for file input field. To open a file (local or URL), you must now explicitly press the "open" button in the control panel.\n''2006.01.08 [2.1.0]''\nIMPORT FROM ANYWHERE!!! re-write getImportedTiddlers() logic to either read a local file (using local I/O), OR... read a remote file, using a combination of XML and an iframe to permit cross-domain reading of DOM elements. Adapted from example code and techniques courtesy of Jonny LeRoy.\n''2006.01.06 [2.0.2]''\nWhen refreshing list contents, fixed check for tiddlerExists() when "show differences only" is selected, so that imported tiddlers that don't exist in the current file will be recognized as differences and included in the list.\n''2006.01.04 [2.0.1]''\nWhen "show differences only" is NOT checked, import all tiddlers that have been selected even when they have a matching title and date.\n''2005.12.27 [2.0.0]''\nUpdate for TW2.0\nDefer initial panel creation and only register a notification function when panel first is created\n''2005.12.22 [1.3.1]''\ntweak formatting in importReport() and add 'discard report' link to output\n''2005.12.03 [1.3.0]''\nDynamically create/remove importPanel as needed to ensure only one instance of interface elements exists, even if there are multiple instances of macro embedding. Also, dynamically create/recreate importFrame each time an external TW document is loaded for importation (reduces DOM overhead and ensures a 'fresh' frame for each document)\n''2005.11.29 [1.2.1]''\nfixed formatting of 'detail info' in importReport()\n''2005.11.11 [1.2.0]''\nadded 'inline' param to embed controls in a tiddler\n''2005.11.09 [1.1.0]''\nonly load HTML and CSS the first time the macro handler is called.

The effects system is an optional abstraction of shaders and render state, you could ignore it and instead just use VertexShader, PixelShader and RenderState directly. Because of this its important to understand that setting the value of an EffectParameter is not the same as setting a ShaderConstant, the effect system will cache the value and then set the shader constant at a later point (usually on EffectPass.Begin() or EffectPass.CommitChanges()).\n\nEach instance of an Effect will cache its own parameter values. So if you have two Effect instances that are using the same .fx file they will each have a copy of the parameter values. This is good because you can store different values in different Effect instances. This is bad because each time you switch between using those instances to render something the effects system will have to upload the different value to the shader. This could affect how you sort your objects for rendering.\n\nYou can share parameters over different .fx files by using the an EffectPool and marking your parameters as shared in the .fx file. Using this you could set global values such as view and projection matrices only once per frame.

tips and notes for the Xna Framework.

[[Xna Goodies|http://xna.tiddlyspot.com]]

@@This is taken from a post I made in the [[XNA Framework Forum|http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/showpost.aspx?postid=1039768&siteid=1]]@@\n\nThe MSBuild Api is part of the .Net Framework, check out theses namespaces:\n\n[[Microsoft.Build.Framework|http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.build.framework(VS.80).aspx]]\n[[Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine|http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.build.buildengine(VS.80).aspx]]\n\nThe [[Engine|http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.build.buildengine.engine(VS.80).aspx]] class has a simple example of building a project file but unlike the sample you don't have to hard code the path to the .Net runtime, you can use {{{System.Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeEnvironment.GetRuntimeDirectory()}}} instead.\n\nHere's an IronPython console sessions that shows how easy it can be (I use IronPython to check out .Net libs):\n{{{\n>>> import System\n>>> import clr\n>>> clr.AddReference("Microsoft.Build.Engine")\n>>> from Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine import *\n>>> e = Engine()\n>>> e.BinPath = System.Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeEnvironment.GetRuntimeDirectory()\n>>> log = ConsoleLogger()\n>>> e.RegisterLogger(log)\n>>> e.BuildProjectFile("buildmulti.proj")\nBuild started 20/12/2006 07:14:13.\n__________________________________________________\nProject "X:\smsbuild\sbuildmulti.proj" (default targets):\n\nTarget XNAContentBuild:\n bin\sDebug\scloudyhills.xnb is already up to date\n\nBuild succeeded.\n 0 Warning(s)\n 0 Error(s)\n\nTime Elapsed 00:00:01.01\nTrue\n>>>\n}}}\n\nI would also suggest that you read the [[MSBuild docs|http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/wea2sca5.aspx]] and learn how build projects work - you could move a lot of logic into the project file itself to avoid you having to generate project files for every asset. For example if you decide on a directory layout for your level assets then you could have a single build project that builds any file in your textures directory using a texture processor and any file in your models directory using a model processor and so on.\n\nOnce you have a system set up you have some very powerful options open to you; you could build from the level editor or provide shortcuts that just run the build without starting the level editor (for users that are just editing assets) or levels can be built from the command line on a network server, or check for changes to a source control system so that as soon as an artist checks in a change the level data is rebuilt and can then be shared between users. There are many options.

Stephen Styrchak from Microsoft posted on the [[XNA forums|http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1045802&SiteID=1&PageID=2]] with more information about enabling projects to work with both platforms.\n\n<<<\nIntellisense should resolve correctly if you've set up the project properly.\n\nThe reason it's so easy to enable this is because we had intended originally to support this scenario. However, the cross-platform project feature had to be cut to meet our schedule. Although a lot of the main scenarios work pretty well and are easy to "turn on", we didn't have anyone testing them and we stopped working on it before there were any checks in place to help keep you out of the bear traps. Trust me when I say that it's no accident that you can change a bit of XML and all of a sudden this feature comes out of nowhere. It's also no accident that we didn't include it in our templates by default.\n\nI had planned to blog about how to enable it, and how to avoid the common pitfalls, so at least advanced users would be able to take advantage of the scenario. Unfortunately, other members of the team felt that we had to maintain a consistent message that it is "not supported." At this point, I think that it would have been better to be more forthcoming.\n\nAnyway, yes, there are things that don't work well when you create a project with both Xbox 360 and x86 platform configurations. You have to expect that, since we didn't finish the feature and it is officially unsupported for that very reason.\n\nIf you want to see the references updated in the Properties Window, just press the Refresh toolbar button in the Solution Explorer. The references are automatically re-resolved for intellisense, but the Properties Window needs a bit of help. This is something we can make automatic in the future, along with refreshing the Project properties (you may note the XNA Framework Platform property doesn't appear to update when you switch platforms -- it is actually just the Properties Window not displaying the new value).\n\nWhat about platform-specific references? Well, that is something you can do manually in your csproj file if you know enough about msbuild. However, the IDE won't understand it and will not display those references correctly. This is something that we may fix in a future version, but requires some cooperation from the VS team who have other priorities.\n\nThere are other features in the IDE that can be completely hosed by switching platforms in the IDE. Most designers and single-file generators (custom tools) are incompatible with the Xbox 360 platform, for example. We turned off most access points to these when Xbox 360 is the active platform, but with a cross-platform project you can easily open a Winforms editor (or component editor, or dataset designer, or whatever) in the x86 configuration and then switch to the Xbox 360 configuration. At that point, it's almost a guarantee that something in the editor will malfunction. Obviously, most people do not want to edit windows forms in their XNA projects, but some people still try it and we don't want to corrupt their files when they make that mistake. At the very least, we'd like to make it harder to make that kind of mistake.\n\nReferencing assemblies from the wrong platform can cause problems that are really hard to diagnose and debug. Those problems generally only show up at runtime, which could be long after the reference was added. That makes it harder for inexperienced programmers to determine cause and effect. With a cross-platform project, it's really easy to add a reference to an assembly meant for the other platform. We can make it easier to detect when that kind of mistake is made, but we couldn't for v1. Since we have to take into consideration that many of our users are going to be new to programming, we decided against enabling a feature by default that requires experience to use correctly.\n\nPlease vote on this subject in Connect if you want to see it fully supported in future versions.

You don't want ~DirectX spewing loads of debug output all the time because it slows things down, so there is a ~DirectX control panel that you can use to select the debug or retail runtimes and adjust the amount of debug spew. This control panel is installed as part of the ~DirectX SDK and you can run it from your Programs menu, inside the ''~DirectX Utilities'' folder.\n\nOnce you have the control panel up you should go to the ~Direct3D tab and select:\n* Use Debug version of ~Direct3D\n* Debug Output Level to More\n>//Tip//: You can also do something similar for Xact under the Audio tab if you're doing sound related stuff.\n\nWhen you have finished debugging your program and you want to play some games or you want to see your game running full speed you should switch back to the Retail runtimes, or things will be a bit slower than you're used to.

@@Note: this has not been updated for beta2 or v1.0 yet. I'll get to it soon.@@\n\nThis is a simple screen capture component, its one redeeming feature is that it should handle games that run with multisampling enabled. I'm still not convinced of the usefulness of GameComponents beyond very simple things but this case is very simple and I guess it makes the 'installation' of the code easier.\n\nTo use it you need to either compile the source code into your project or install the control. Then you should be able to find the component in your designer tool box. Drag it into your game's design surface. Change the properties of the ScreenCapture component to set the capture key and file name.\n\nI've not tested this much but I did drop it into a couple of different Xna game projects, including Space War and was able to take screen shots with no trouble.\n\nSee ScreenShotHowTo for more information on how to take screen shots when multisampling is enabled.\nSee ScreenShotComponentDownload for the source code.\n\n

The error reporting of Xna/~DirectX is not that great, most of the time if you do something wrong you'll just get an {{{InvalidCallException}}} which isn't telling you much. That's because ~DirectX expects you to be looking at the debug output for more information. So how do you see the debug output? That's what I'm about to tell you.\n\n* [[Download DebugView]]\n* [[Switch to Debug DirectX runtimes]]\n* [[Watch lots of interesting text appear]]\n

If you have the debug runtimes selected then you should see a fair bit of information being output about what ~DirectX is doing when you run your game. Here is the output I saw for a small program I wrote, this program was failing with an {{{InvalidCallException}}} in the {{{GraphicsDevice.StretcRect()}}} method. That wasn't very useful but if you look at the debug output you can see exactly what the problem was:\n{{{\n[4660] Direct3D9: (INFO) :Direct3D9 Debug Runtime selected.\n[4660] \n[4660] D3D9 Helper: Enhanced D3DDebugging disabled; Application was not compiled with D3D_DEBUG_INFO \n[4660] Direct3D9: (INFO) :======================= Hal HWVP device selected \n[4660] \n[4660] Direct3D9: (INFO) :HalDevice Driver Style 9 \n[4660] \n[4660] Direct3D9: :DoneExclusiveMode\n[4660] \n[4660] Direct3D9: (INFO) :Failed to create driver indexbuffer\n[4660] \n[4660] Direct3D9: (ERROR) :Destination textures passed to StretchRect or ColorFill must have D3DUSAGE_RENDERTARGET set \n}}}\nThe last line clearly shows why I was getting a problem. So, go use it and master those errors.\n
