ID3DXFont problem
Author
I am in the process of writting a ID3DXFont wrapper, and everything seems great...almost.
I have 2 sprites going on. 1 for my main rendering, and the other for the my font class. Everything renders fine, except the text is always behind the rest of my images. How can I get it to render in front???
Thank you in advance for your response.

That's what I was trying, but honestly, I am not sure if I am doing it correctly,
check this out.
temp->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ZENABLE, D3DZB_FALSE);
temp->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ZWRITEENABLE, FALSE);
Is that corect ??
Am I correct in using 2 different sprites, one for the rendering of everything else on the screen, and one for the fonts ???
Thank you again.

Quote:Original post by coder919I don't think you actually need more than one sprite class, but I'm not entirely sure. I always have one ID3DXSprite instance.

You want to turn off the Z-test, not the writing or anything:
temp->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ZTEST, D3DCMP_ALWAYS);
(I think that's right, the render state name may be wrong). Disabling the Z-buffer entirely, like you do on your first line should have the same effect.

Still have the same problem. I really don't get it.
I let D3D make it's own sprite ( by passing NULL as the first argument to drawtex)
and still having the same problem.
this is what I am doing:
render->PreRender();
render->ClearBuffer();
// this is the background
render->Render(back);
// rendering the rest of my objects
for(unsigned int i = 0; i < objectManager.objects.size(); i++)
render->Render(objectManager.objects);
// now rendering a chode string using a sprite
txt.DrawString("alkfdjlaksfjlkajflk;adsjjlksafkjsalkfjsie",&rc);
// now using drawtext without using a sprite
render->DrawText("Why is this is difficult?".rc);
Both texts print out, but they always behind everything on the screen.
The zBuffer is off.
During all this rendering I have my states as follows:
m_pD3DDevice->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ALPHABLENDENABLE, TRUE);
m_pD3DDevice->SetRenderState(D3DRS_SRCBLEND, D3DBLEND_SRCALPHA);
m_pD3DDevice->SetRenderState(D3DRS_DESTBLEND, D3DBLEND_INVSRCALPHA);
Thank you for your quick replies, this is not letting me sleep in peace.

Any screen short to have a look? I don't understand well what you mean by behind everything but still get drawn.
Try disabling the alpha blending?
