re: Building a 3D Game in XNA From Scratch - Free Video Tutorial Series Now Available!

dawate — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 03:14:12 GMT

@golf1052: This is a good point. Between steps 5 and 6a, I went though quite a learning process myself, that involved messing around with XSI and getting more familiar with the modeling aspects of the tool.

The steps that are involved is just creating a single mesh model from scratch, which is easier than it sounds once you get the hang of it. If I can do it, anyone can :)

I didn't see too much value in showing you guys a 1 hr video of how to model, since there are plenty of those available elsewhere and everyone develops their own style. However if there is demand for it I will certainly show how to create the single mesh model with XSI mod tool.

re: Building a 3D Game in XNA From Scratch - Free Video Tutorial Series Now Available!

Alekisan — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 14:24:45 GMT

@dawate: I think golf1052 was actually referring to how you did not really explain that you were going to switch from your original custom spinning model "game" to some model viewer project that comes with xsi. The sudden change in the code without any explanation was a little confusing.

re: Building a 3D Game in XNA From Scratch - Free Video Tutorial Series Now Available!

dawate — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 15:56:07 GMT

@Chris: Video 2 isn't working? Are you referring to the MSN video or the downloadable version? I tried both and they seem to work okay. Let me know how to reproduce your issue and I'll look into it.

@Alekisan: Yeah, I can understand the concern there. I will add some text to clarify. However I'm not moving to the sample model viewer, it is all custom code with some snippets taken from the model viewer (Just a clarification :) I also moved from FBX format, which is natively supported in XNA, to .XSI format to utilize the XSI->XNA model publishing pipeline and also to take advantage of the animation runtime they provide.

Will add some text to make it clearer :) Thanks all for the feedback!

I'll vote for a quick tutorial on how to get from step 5 to step 6a. But so far this tutorial has been a huge help! Thank you.

3d Games programming is nifty business, it helps a lot if your maths is sound and you like using a 'mouse' a lot. Im reading a 3d Games design with direct X book right now, been reading and playing around with the sample code and even improvising or modifying it to see 'what else' it can do or 'what if i changed this to that, would that behave accordingly ?'

im awful at programming, maybe cos im lazy but this book and the hours of 'play' im putting in are well worth it.

I'm trying to write a futuristic space based C&C game, with a clever AI and the graphics should be quite nice and bold. Allies and Enemies can be made though you're better off doing trade with somebody from a planet who has access to say a resource that allows 'stealth' technology to be made, and they in turn would probably want 'shield technology' or 'warp drive' heh.

I'm on video 5 and when I add the Phong texture to the hat and go to "Real Time Shader" and then "DirectX 9", the whole hat turns light gray with no shading whatsoever. I finished the video just to see if it came out right in the end... but it didn't. Did I miss somthing? I copied all the textures/shaders to the appropriate folders. I've gone through the video up to that point about 4 times and still have the same outcome. I would really love to finish this... HELP!

hi dan,

i have tried this tutorial and i have got a question.

when i view my pirat hat with texture model in XSI it works fine, but when i load it in xna, i can't see the skullcrossbones texture, rest works fine.

plz tell me why, i have put all the necessary shader files and maps in appropriate folders.

cheers.

re: Building a 3D Game in XNA From Scratch - Free Video Tutorial Series Now Available!

dawate — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 23:05:30 GMT

@jason,

If the whole hat is turning light gray than you might need to install the update for XSI Mod Tool that fixes some directx bugs. If there is no shading at all, then Mod Tool doesn't like your DirectX 9 configuration unfortunately. Does textured mode work?

@sachi,

Try pressing F8 and deleting any extra texture projections... sometimes if you have more than one it won't look right. You can also delete all the texture projections and then re-apply the texture to those two faces on the pirate hat.

re: Building a 3D Game in XNA From Scratch - Free Video Tutorial Series Now Available!

sachi — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 23:30:43 GMT

well textured mode works properly, but sometime in directx mode i can see different colors in the mesh. well there is shadding and lighting too, but when i use the same model in xna its totally black yeah i think because of the black texture map, but there is no lighting and no skullcrossbone map too.

well can i get the texture maps used in the tutorial like black.jpg and piratehat.jpg from somewhere like online, because when i make my own i usually got some warnings about the appropriate dimensions of the map.

also can i use the 3dstudio max mesh with animating biped in xsi. also about the 2nd part of videos in tutorial "animating the pirate body" where the whole pirate mesh is used with all the necessary texture maps, can u tell me where i can get these files too.

cheers.

how can i delete all the texture projections.

cheers.

re: Building a 3D Game in XNA From Scratch - Free Video Tutorial Series Now Available!

dawate — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 16:45:08 GMT

@sachi

Maybe it's not F8... It's been a few months since I have been using XSI regularly. It's whatever opens the Explorer window, and under the Mesh node you can drill down and find the texture projections.

I bake and crosswalk export to fbx. Then in my game, I get a warning on build saying "There were verticies which did not contain texture coordinates in the following mesh..." for the sphere model, and the model just looks black when I run xna. How do i get the texture to show up in xna?
