• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. For loop in Pixelshader 2.0

  Hi, i try to use more than 1 light in a Pixelshader 2.0 and made a loop to go through all lights. In this loop i use some 'normalize', 'mul' and 'dot' functions but it seems compiler unrolls this loop so i got with 3 and more lights "too many arithmetic instruction slots". Is there any chance to avoid this loop unrolling No. Pixelshader 2.0 does not support loops. If your shader does not fit you will have to use a multi pass solution. You can use the 2.A and 2.B profile to get a higher instruction limit but this shaders will not run on every hardware. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) TextBox input validation

  How can I validate input for my textboxes For example I have an application where I want to input several numbers in the textboxes. The primary validation constraint is that I want the user to be able to input only valid real numbers. Some of the textboxes should contain only positive real numbers. Also I want to be able to do comparisons between the different values (for example I have a minimum speed textbox, and maximum speed textbox, so there's one more rule here: min <= max). Also, if the user is currently editing a textbox, he should be able to cancel the modifications, by pressing escape. How can I do all these with Avalon/WPF Tha ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Visual Studio 6.0 SP5 setup on Vista Beta 2 (5384)?

  Does anyone know how to get around the MDAC check in the Service Pack 5 setup of Visual Studio 6.0 For some reason it doesn't detect MDAC 2.5 or higher which it requires (even though Vista obviously has a later version - 6.0) and the setup will not continue from that point. I've tried every registry key I could think of to trick it into thinking MDAC is installed. Thanks Ted. Totally untrue - the support on Vista has been committed to by Microsoft until March of 2008  http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vbrun/ms788708.aspx I know for a fact that it runs perfectly on Vista as I have run i ...Show All

• SQL Server Does SQL Server support all languages using Unicode

  I have an international Internet business and I use SQL Server with the Unicode field types of nchar, nvarchar and ntext. I seem to have no problem with customers entering Slovakian, Slovenian, Romanian, English or German, but Hebrew and Japanese do not seem to work. The resulting data coming back from the database after adding a record is garbage. I had the software email me the data immediately before adding the data to SQL Server. It was appearing correctly with respect to the foreign language character format. The software does the database add and then returns a list of records currently in that table. The information for Japanese or He ...Show All

  Hello, I'm basically trying to display a text in a window. I'm using VC8 and I'm building for PPC2003 & Windows Mobile 5.
