Program creates a Game1 (or similar) object and starts it running

Game1 has: Initialize() LoadContent() Update() Draw()

It runs an update-draw loop continuously until told to exit

Page 8: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this in mind It has pretty easy ways to read from the keyboard, the mouse, and also Xbox

controllers But you'll need a console for Project 1 so that you can tell it which file to

load and what kind of manipulations to perform on it So that Console.Write() and Console.Read() work Go to the Properties page for your project Go to the Application tab Change Output Type to Console Application

More information: http://rbwhitaker.wikidot.com/console-windows You'll need a separate thread to read and write to the console if you don't

want your game to freeze up

Page 9: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

To draw a picture on the screen, we need to load it first Inside a MonoGame project, right-click the Content.mgcb file and

choose Open with… Select MonoGame Pipeline Tool Add and then Existing Item… Find an image you want on your hard drive Make sure the Build Action is Build The Importer should be Texture Importer - MonoGame

Create a Texture2D member variable to hold it Assume the member variable is called cat and the content is called cat.jpg

In LoadContent(), add the line:

cat = Content.Load<Texture2D>("cat.jpg");

Page 10: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

Now the variable cat contains a loaded 2D texture Inside the Draw()method, add the following code:

This will draw cat at location (x, y) All sprites need to be drawn between Begin() and End()spriteBatch calls

spriteBatch.Begin();

spriteBatch.Draw(cat, new Vector2(x, y), Color.White);

spriteBatch.End();

Modern TrueType and OpenType fonts are vector descriptions of the shapes of characters Vector descriptions are good for quality, but bad for speed

MonoGame allows us to take a vector-based font and turn it into a picture of characters that can be rendered as a texture Just like everything else

Page 12: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

Inside a MonoGame project, right-click the Content.mgcb file and choose Open with…

Select MonoGame Pipeline Tool Right click on Content in the tool, and select Add -> New Item… Choose SpriteFont Description and give your new SpriteFont a name Open the spritefont file, choosing a text editor like Notepad++ By default, the font is Arial at size 12 Edit the XML to pick the font, size, and spacing You will need multiple Sprite Fonts even for different sizes of the same font

Repeat the process to make more fonts Note: fonts have complex licensing and distribution requirements

Page 13: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

Load the font similar to texture content

Add a DrawString() call in the Draw() method:

spriteBatch.Begin();

spriteBatch.DrawString(font, "Hello, World!", newVector2(100, 100), Color.Black);

spriteBatch.End();

font = Content.Load<SpriteFont>("Text");

They "float" above the background like fairies…

Multiple sprites are often stored on one texture

It's cheaper to store one big image than a lot of small ones

This is an idea borrowed from old video games that rendered characters as sprites

Page 15: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

It is possible to apply all kinds of 3D transformations to a sprite A sprite can be used for billboarding or other image-based

techniques in a fully 3D environment But, we can also simply rotate them using an overloaded call

to Draw()

spriteBatch.Draw(texture, location,sourceRectangle, Color.White, angle, origin, 1.0f, SpriteEffects.None, 1);

Page 16: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

texture: Texture2D to draw location: Location to draw it sourceRectangle Portion of image Color.White Full brightness angle Angle in radians origin Origin of rotation 1.0f Scaling SpriteEffects.None No effects 1 Float level

For API design, practical top-down problem solving, and hardware design, and efficiency, rendering is described as a pipeline

This pipeline contains three conceptual stages:

Produces material

to be rendered

Application

Decides what,

how, and where to

render

Geometry

Renders the final image

Rasterizer

The output of the Application Stage is polygons The Geometry Stage processes these polygons using the

following pipeline:

Model and View

Transform

Vertex Shading Projection Clipping Screen

Mapping

Each 3D model has its own coordinate system called model space

When combining all the models in a scene together, the models must be converted from model space to world space

After that, we still have to account for the position of the camera

Page 22: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

We transform the models into camera space or eye spacewith a view transform

Then, the camera will sit at (0,0,0), looking into negative z The z-axis comes out of the screen in the book's examples and

in MonoGame (but not in older DirectX)

Figuring out the effect of light on a material is called shading This involves computing a (sometimes complex) shading

equation at different points on an object Typically, information is computed on a per-vertex basis and

may include: Location Normals Colors

Projection transforms the view volume into a standardized unit cube

Vertices then have a 2D location and a z-value

There are two common forms of projection: Orthographic: Parallel lines stay

parallel, objects do not get smaller in the distance

Perspective: The farther away an object is, the smaller it appears

Page 25: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

Clipping process the polygons based on their location relative to the view volume

A polygon completely inside the view volume is unchanged A polygon completely outside the view volume is ignored (not rendered) A polygon partially inside is clipped New vertices on the boundary of the volume are created

Since everything has been transformed into a unit cube, dedicated hardware can do the clipping in exactly the same way, every time

Page 26: Week 2 - Mondayfaculty.otterbein.edu/wittman1/comp4290/slides/comp4290...We're used to interacting with programs from the command line (console) MonoGame was not designed with this

Screen-mapping transforms the x and y coordinates of each polygon from the unit cube to screen coordinates

A few oddities: DirectX has weird coordinate systems for pixels where the location is the center of the

pixel DirectX conforms to the Windows standard of pixel (0,0) being in the upper left of the

screen OpenGL conforms to the Cartesian system with pixel (0,0) in the lower left of the screen
