Hi guys,

I'm new to DirectX programming and have been following the RasterTek tutorials. Up until now I hadn't had any issues.

After finishing the Frustum Calling tutorial (http://www.rastertek.com/dx11tut16.html), I decided to edit the code so I could add more of the same model wherever I clicked.
The problem is that as soon as the render count hits 100 everything stops. No errors, no exceptions, nothing, the code keeps running but nothing renders on screen.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a cap?

There isn't any cap. We need more info to help you.

Thanks for the reply.

Before I post my code, I've tried initializing to over 100 as well. If there are more than 100 models in my viewport, everything stops working. I've even tried using a vector instead of an array.

Here is my modellist.cpp, which is pretty much the same. I stopped using the AddModel function since I figured the issue wasn't from there.

Thank you for the help

Oh sorry, I accidentally deleted that bit

I call it inside the graphicsclass Initialize. Like I said before the argument I pass isn't directly linked to the blank screen. If the models are by chance spaced out in such a way that there's less then 100 in my viewport everything is fine. Soon as the renderCount in the graphicscalss render function hits 100, everything stops. Text isn't printed, models aren't rendered and SOMETIMES the camera moves and if I can get less then 100 models in my viewport by roasting the camera the program starts working again.

// Initialize the light object.
	m_Light->SetAmbientColor(0.15f, 0.15f, 0.15f, 1.0f);
	m_Light->SetDiffuseColor(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
	m_Light->SetDiffuseColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
	m_Light->SetDirection(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
	//m_Light->SetSpecularColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
	m_Light->SetSpecularPower(32.0f);


	// Create the model list object.
	m_ModelList = new ModelListClass;
	if (!m_ModelList)
	{
		return false;
	}

	// Initialize the model list object.
	result = m_ModelList->Initialize(100);
	if (!result)
	{
		MessageBox(hwnd, L"Could not initialize the model list object.", L"Error", MB_OK);
		return false;
	}

I can set it to initalize at 200, and if there are more than 100 in the viewport it stops functioning. The program doesn't crash, it just stops rendering. Did I understand you correctly?

In GraphicsClass::Render

Test the interesection algorithm Change:

// If it can be seen then render it, if not skip this model and check the next sphere.

if (renderModel) //change this line to if(true)

// Reset to the original world matrix.
 m_D3D->GetWorldMatrix(worldMatrix);

That looks wrong double check it.

Can you give us the DrawIndexed/Draw/DrawInstanced function call(and few lines of code around the call), and the D3D11_BUFFER_DESC for the vertex and the index buffers?

Can you give us the sharders also?

Tried changing it to if(true), no change.
Here are the snippets.
