• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. WEIRD-Please Help. Alpha Blended Mesh Occludes Another Mesh Over Background

  Hello everyone, I'm new to these forums and have been tinkering with Managed DirectX for a few months now in order to get my graphics engine working the way I want. Right now I'm trying to figure out a problem I'm having with two alpha blended meshes occluding one another.  I use a background sprite texture to help display the translucency of the meshes I'm using.  I have two distinct mesh objects defined, one created using Mesh.Box() and the other using Mesh.Sphere().  The "sphere" is drawn at coordinates (0, 0, 0) and the "box" is drawn 50 units to the left of the sphere at coordinates (-50, 0, 0).  When the applicatio ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Debugging shaders

  Hy. I've never debugged shaders before and I really need to do it; so I followed all the steps from the SDK, then I tested the debugger on a SDK sample that had shaders and it worked. Then I turned my attention to my application and I've modified the code to enable it to run with shader debugging. The only problem is that shaders aren't debugged, I've inserted a breakpoint there and it isn't reached. I've tried everything, but nothing works. Has anyone encountered this problem I have to mention that I'm using my own header and cpp for the object implementation and the DXUT framework to do all the dirty work. This is what I've done t ...Show All

• SQL Server Losing rows from file to destination table - need troubleshooting help

  I am losing data from time to time and can not figure out where the rows are vanishing to. In essence, I have 5 files that I process. The processing occurs on a daily basis by one SQLAgent job that calls 5 individual packages, each doing a different piece of work. I stage each file to a temp table, then perform some minor transformations, then union the rowsets from each file before landing to another temporary table. A subsequent package performs additional transformations that apply to the entire dataset, before inserting them to their final destination. Along the way, I reject some records based on the business rules applied. Each pack ...Show All

  The UserAddedRow events occurs when the first character is added to a new row, Is there a similiar event that fires when the user has completed adding all of the information to the row I want to capture the contents of the new row and create a new object with the contents.
