I am starting an advanced Direct X Tutorial divided in 100 Chapters

Pedro Borges · 2012-10-09T16:22:15

Hello all, I am new on this site, actually this is my first post, but I am veteran anonymous reader. I like very much of the two existent Direct X 11 Tutorials (like rastertek.com and braynzarsoft.net ), but they are just separated tutorials and not a full big demo, constructed peace by peace and that I is my goal, put all things together and working in a high speed frame rate in a single Application. My goal is to trying to divide my current demo that already exist, and you can all download and install it (http://woma.no-ip.org/), at least the version released, not the last one. The tutorials I am trying to have strength and patience enough to write all of them, yes you read well 101 Tutorials! Check my current version, with only a few chapters for now but more will come every day: http://pmborg.wix.com/dx11woma I will try to put 1 or so in average per day. I will be glad to have your feedback, mostly at the beginning because now the chapters are very small and easy to understand, I think. But... They will become more complex soon, I promise!

Hello, Thanks!
Actually This engine has started with the base of two other engines http://rastertek.com and http://braynzarsoft.net.
I am a very big fan of those sites.
Both engines have some problems with compatibilities to start the DX11 Engine, they also have a problem when they are doing the bind of vertices and shaders with a pre-compilation in run-time which is not 100% compatible with the HW.
rastertek have also an annoying bug when start the Direct Input when you are not the focus window, and several bugs related with render to a private texture in memory.
braynzarsoft have a very good obj load class I presented the second version and later on I will present the 3th version.

I fixed all that issues and also implemented a new 3D obj converter to 3D objects my own format called "M3D" but not related with old m3d.
This format is 20xfaster to read from file than obj format, I will show how that work later on but the code is already there.
I also optimized the buffers and the shaders inside GPU.

If you have any problem with my engine just let me know, link here to main page: http://pmborg.wix.com/dx11woma
The last chapter is the 31 but not published yet, direct link here: woma.no-ip.org/woma/WoMA_PartII_Chap31.zip
