Now, I said I wanted to get the editor written up before I posted the basic system, but I have had so many requests for it I thought I may as well get the base up and I can build on it as the system evolves. Before I get into the code, I'll explain...

ReMix 08 - Demo Source Code
Some of you that have come to this blog after going to the ReMix 08 conference are probably wondering, "Where is that source code Paul said would be here!?" Well, most of it is here, it's just smashed across a lot of posts. But, it's...

Generic XNA - Threading for Windows & XBox 360
OK, I went back to my old threading code to port it to the 360 so I could start playing about with processor affinity (as promised last time) and found the compact framework for the 360 was a bit thin on the ground for parameterized threading, so I have...

Well if I had just put, "Another Cloud Clip!" you would not have looked at this post. Anyway, her is some more of the same, but not quite the same, well, almost the same. In this clip I show multiple cloud layers each with differing tones of...

Generic XNA - Threading for Windows
Well I have done some basic threading in my job, basic stuff and thought I would try and put the basic threading I have done into an XNA Game Component. I am not saying this is how you should do your threading, my method is certainly not the only way...

Generic XNA - Movies in your Windows games
Well, I started looking into this after a friend of mine asked if it could be done. I remembered the other week on Ziggyware that someone got a web cam to stream in an XNA app and so thought that the principle should be the same, taking the output, rendering...

SkyBox Shader Fix

Generic XNA - Fire
Yes, I have been playing with fire! I have had this flame shader by NVIDIA (from the SDK) for ages now. I tried to implement in my olf RC3D Engine but it was a poor attempt and was of no real use to anyone, but I think I may have the beginnings of a decent...
