Why XNA?

DirectX is Hard.

Introduction to XNA Game Studio 4.0

Basic XNA Game Structure

XNAGame1UML.PNG

The Game class in XNA has many default methods tha tare used to help define a structure for the game. Most XNA Game Components will inherit from this class

Game Methods

XNA's base class.

Constructor()

Instantiates objects from classes. New instances of a class are created with the keyword new.

Initialize()

Initializes all variables. Assigns static variables a value.

LoadGraphicsContent()

Loads code and images to the memory of the graphics card.

UnloadGraphicsContent()

Clear the memory of the graphics card.

Game loop

Update()

Updates game logic – Move, input, score, network, sound. Guarenteed to be called on every iteration

Draw()

Draws to the screen - May not be called every loop. Should be short and exit quickly


Default Game Class

Hello XNA with texture

Simple xna project that draws a pacman sprite

  • Start a new XNA Project

Add two variable declarations at the top of the class

1             
2             Texture2D PacMan;
3             Vector2 PacManLoc;

In the LoadContent Function add the following code to initialize the two variables declared above

 1         protected override void LoadContent()
 2         {
 3             // Create a new SpriteBatch, which can be used to draw textures.
 4             spriteBatch = new SpriteBatch(GraphicsDevice);
 5 
 6             // TODO: use this.Content to load your game content here
 7             //load PacMan image
 8             PacMan = Content.Load<texture2d>("pacmanSingle");
 9             //Center PacMan image
10             PacManLoc = new Vector2(graphics.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Width / 2, graphics.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Height / 2);
11         }
  • Add the following code to the Draw Method to Draw the texture
 1 	protected override void Draw(GameTime gameTime)
 2         {
 3             graphics.GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.CornflowerBlue);
 4 
 5             // TODO: Add your drawing code here
 6             spriteBatch.Begin();
 7             spriteBatch.Draw(PacMan, PacManLoc, Color.White);
 8             spriteBatch.End();
 9 
10             base.Draw(gameTime);
11         }

pacman image is availble here: PacmanSingle.png


the full game1.cs file should look like

[http://brookfield.rice.iit.edu/jmeyers/gbrowser.php?file=/ITM496-595/ClassSource/Projects/IntroSimpleSpriteWindows/IntroSimpleSpriteWindows/Game1.cs IntroSimpleSpriteWindows/Game1.cs]

the build of the game will look like IntroSimpleSpriteWindows.png

Demo With SpriteFont

Let's add update

Simple 2D texture example with update

Lets Add two more members to the Game1 class

1 Vector2 PacManLoc, PacManDir;   //Loaction and Direction for PacManfloat PacManSpeed;              //speed for the PacMan Sprite

Then we'll add code to the update method

 1             // TODO: Add your update logic here
 2             //Elapsed time since last update
 3             float time = (float)gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.TotalMilliseconds;
 4 
 5 
 6             //Turn PacMan Around if it hits the edge of the screen
 7             if ( (PacManLoc.X > graphics.GraphicsDevice.Viewport.Width - PacMan.Width)
 8                 || (PacManLoc.X < 0 )
 9                )
10             {
11                 PacManDir = Vector2.Negate(PacManDir);
12             }
13 
14             //Move PacMan
15             //Simple move Moves PacMac by PacManDiv on every update
16             //PacManLoc = PacManLoc + PacManDir;
17 
18             //Time corrected move. MOves PacMan By PacManDiv every Second
19             PacManLoc = PacManLoc + ((PacManDir * PacManSpeed) * (time/1000));      //Simple Move PacMan by PacManDir
