He, I'm trying to send a meeting request by code. Using office.interop I was successfull but a noisy popup appear when application send the email "an application is tring to access to outlook etc etc" and I must press the button to permit it. Anyone know a way to resolve (also changing the way to send meeting request)?

I'm writing a windows app that send email. It' an extreme easy application, I just write MailMessage msg = new MailMessage(); msg.From = "myEmailAddress"; msg.To = "destinationEmailAddress"; msg.Subject = "subject"; msg.Body = "body"; msg.Attachments.Add(new MailAttachment("attachment")); SmtpMail.SmtpServer="smtpServer"; SmtpMail.Send(msg); no login, no password. Why? In this way I can send email from a email address of another person. What's the conseguences of this? Can I have problem from my host? My Application is finished but I don't want to have problem for using my email from an application like this one. Can you help me?

For those who are interested, I made a Tokamak wrapper for .net using the swig compiler. I have no time neither to write the documentation nor to test it, than if you want to test it you can find it on my website (the zip file also contains 2 samples). http://www.robydx.135.it in Game & Code section under robydx's software. I tried to keep the same structure except for static function (included in the classes) and something else (terrainMesh). The wrapper is not fully complete (there aren't virtual functions) then let me know if you have some suggestions or if you find some bugs. If you want to write some documentation or demo for next release I'll thanks you.

I'm realising a dll in C# and in it there are some namespace that I use in the dll. But I want to hide this namespace from one who 'll use this dll. This namespace must be invisible outside How can I do this?

my website exits from 2 years, moving from a provider to anothers. I 'have written many tutorial (and other come every week) and infact I want to became the most complete website on directX for VB ;) the every one please help

Good. With few correction it's perfect. You had a good idea. Thanks

Thank you pentium guy, probably put them in the translator and then correct the error can be a good way to do. After I can controll the translation and then pubblish on my web site. Do you want to help me? robydx.altervista.org has 2 section: directX9 and directX8. In DirectX9 there is direct3D with directX + VB.Net tutorial. Starting from the last (from the beginning I have some translators) can you try? If you see only in section Direct3D9 there are 47 tutorials (all web site with sound, input and network for both directX are about 100 tutorial). I'm not a good translator and I'm a lot to do with other stuff. I'm search people to divide work (If I get 30 person, 3 tutorial for person is not a long work). The project with another friend is to create a php web site with automatic language changer (http://vincedx.altervista.org/) to make public for everyone in Italian and English Do you have a translator? Did you want to help me? Thank you so much to arch4ngel but in most case the translation is not so good (but for the moment could work). Thank you for everyone.

I've started the translation of my web site from Italian to English. Anyone can help me? My web site is in the sign

use gamma correction

If you can't see nothing the problen could be that you havent passed transform matrix in properly way

HLSL is case sensitive then pos2 is differente from Pos2 hovever to interpolate value use Lerp that do a linear interpolation from 2 vector passing a single value from 0 to 1.

You must declare in effect file (vertex shader). I can't help anymore because this second way it's so difficult that I didn't spend any time to study it

I have 2 problems: 1)I want to draw cubic bezier rectangular patch. When I draw 1 path I put vertex from left to right and up to down to create a 4 x 4 group (an array of 16 vertex). How I must order then if for example I want to create a plane of 4 x 4 patch? 2)How work patch mesh? I create one, I use tessellate applied to the normal mesh and in present it give me an error if I draw the mesh that I tessellate. patchMesh.Tessellate(4, normalMesh) normalMesh.DrawSubset(i) Initialitation code is this Dim paInfo As New PatchInformation paInfo.BasisType = BasisType.BSpline paInfo.PatchType = PatchType.Rectangle paInfo.Degree = DegreeType.Cubic paInfo.TessellateLevel = New Single() {3, 3, 3, 3} Dim elementi() As VertexElement = {New VertexElement(0, 0, DeclarationType.Float3, DeclarationMethod.Default, DeclarationUsage.Position, 0), New VertexElement(0, 12, DeclarationType.Float3, DeclarationMethod.Default, DeclarationUsage.Normal, 0), New VertexElement(0, 24, DeclarationType.Float2, DeclarationMethod.Default, DeclarationUsage.TextureCoordinate, 0), VertexElement.VertexDeclarationEnd} PatchMesh = New PatchMesh(device, paInfo, 4, normalMesh.NumberVertices, elementi) How it works patchMesh? Anyone can help me or give me a website that cover also in C++ this topic?

I solved in this way: I used a format like this position normal binormal (the second normal) tangent textureCoordinate memory access and it works. But I remember that is possible to pass two vertexbuffer to device.setStream n and declare position0 and position1 for the two vertex position (idem for normals). The first is sure (I used it in my 3DEngine), the second it should work but I've tried it one time in directX8

can you show me the code for drawing and vertex creation?

if the hlsl code is wrong the error is given at shader creation. Probably you have use a vertex format that include not only position and normal. For example you can have texture coordinate

did you set the vertex declaration correctly? device.vertexdeclaration=myVertexDeclaration? did you pass your array without index to drawPrimitive vertexArray(0) wrong vertexArray correct did you pass also vertexFormat? you must pass all 3 Format, declaration and vertexShader to work properly

Also I've started to write a 3D graphics engine oriented on vertex and pixel shader 2.0. My graphics engine is called Enginet Is at first fase of development but support: lightmap stencil shadows device lost management vertex shader tweening animation lens flare fire noise 3D collision detection skin mesh animation raylight detection bump sky input and audio interface (in future also network interface). 2 tools for assemblies level and animation It has one defect: is documented in Italian. If you want to help me to debug the first version I'll thank. You can find it on my website robydx.altervista.org in section project enginet. I need debbuger help to accellerate the development of it.

just load a texture with colorkey. In the instruction for creating pass a color.toargb value for renderToSurface use a A8R8G8B format and render on this surface image that has color key. Then apply to a square and you 'll have trasparencties

altervista has a translation service. Probably one way is to install a translation program. Hovever you card 'll be enaght. If you need a debugger try my "shaderDK" in project SDK. It's a tool that I've realised that permit to write, test, debug and visualize shaders in every version and also in REF (so you can test 2.0 shaders also). bye

if you need a quick access to memory is impossible, memory acces is show if you need simple modification use pixel shader in direct3D. If you use 2.0 version you can obtain many effect but you can't do what ever you want. In directDraw this is the best you can do

I think the best way is a rectangle with texture. Load it with color key and use alphatestenable=true use alphafunc to determine what show and how.

if you understand Italian my web site has it with full source code robydx.altervista.org section directX9 - direct3D hovever is simple, an example is enaugh to understand and for complex shader code is very usefull (for simple code is a waste of time). if you has difficult tell me

simple use a vector position and a vector direction. You start position up the mesh and direct to down the ray. In the structure intersectInformation you 'll obtain the distanze from position and other information. If the mesh has a trasformation different from identity the you must trasform position by the inverse world matrix of the mesh. by the way if you create a mesh from your vertex and not from file this instruction don't work because need attribute table and 'll gave you an error in some case. It's also slow from a solid algorithm but it's work great if you use it in property way
