• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Sample Framework

  I've been looking over the sample framework (empty project) and I can see a lot of useful things in there that would be great if I didnt have to reinvent the wheel, mostly in terms of handling input and GUI code, but... Even though the sample framework code has a lot of comments, it's still very hard to follow and feels like it's all over the place. I realise we all have different coding styles but I was wondering if anyone has some kind of ...Show All
