Quick help. I'm just an artist but I can cut and paste code pretty well! My floor currently has a color map, normal map, and spec map on it. It doesn't cast shadows (because nothing is below the floor) but recieves them. If I wanted to get my "floor" object reflecting what would I do...

Hi all, I'm moving on in my project and I am now hitting a huge performance issue with the way I implemented particles (using DPSF) in my SunBurn based project. It seems that ParticleSystems in DPSF do not check their visibility against the View Frustrum and therefore update and render themselves...

Hi, Whenever I start my game, it seems to run quite fine. Upon opening the editor, it crashes. I've crunched through a number of solutions and bugs with answers from this forum, mainly in unloading and reloading content, managers and render targets. But this one line has me stumped. g_GameManager...
