Compiling with visual studio 2010...
If Compiling in DEBUG mode with D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG set for device creation, alpha blending works fine.
If Compiling in DEBUG mode with D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG NOT set for device creation, alpha blending works fine.
If Compiling in RELEASE mode with D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG set for device creation, alpha blending works fine.
If Compiling in RELEASE mode with D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG NOT set for device creation, alpha blending does not work... looks like alpha testing.
D3D11_BLEND_DESC oBlendStateDesc;
oBlendStateDesc.AlphaToCoverageEnable = 0;
oBlendStateDesc.IndependentBlendEnable = 0;
for (unsigned int a = 0; a < D3D11_SIMULTANEOUS_RENDER_TARGET_COUNT; ++a)
{
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].BlendEnable = 1;
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].SrcBlend = D3D11_BLEND_SRC_ALPHA;
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].DestBlend = D3D11_BLEND_INV_SRC_ALPHA;
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].BlendOp = D3D11_BLEND_OP_ADD;
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].SrcBlendAlpha = D3D11_BLEND_ONE;
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].DestBlendAlpha = D3D11_BLEND_ONE;
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].BlendOpAlpha = D3D11_BLEND_OP_ADD;
oBlendStateDesc.RenderTarget[a].RenderTargetWriteMask = D3D11_COLOR_WRITE_ENABLE_ALL;
}
HRESULT HResult = m_poDevice->CreateBlendState(&oBlendStateDesc, &m_poBlendState); //HResult returns S_OK
Anyone have any idea what may be causing this?
UPDATE: Tested on two different PC's... Both windows 7 64 bit, one has a GTX 460 & the other is a GTX 580. The one with the GTX 580 does not have any problems with alpha blending.
SOLVED: There was an initialized variable in there somewhere and I can only assume creating in debug mode caught the error. Another difference between the two tested machines is the visual studio version. So perhaps the later version machine (gtx 580) caught the error also.
