Textures in 3D get's nasty

[LDV]

Hi,
I'm having some troubles with Textures in DirectX3D.

I'm trying to create textures: like:
m_texture = new Texture(dev, m_bitmap, Usage.SoftwareProcessing, Pool.Default);

But i get InvalidCallException !

So i'm using:
m_texture = TextureLoader.FromFile(dev, fileName);

But when i try to show part of the texuture using Sprite class:
sprite.Draw(m_texture, m_rect[num], new Vector3(0, 0, 0), new Vector3(x, y, 1), Color.FromArgb(255, 255, 255, 255));

I get it all very deformed.

Any ideas?
Thansk, LDV.

Hi,


But i get InvalidCallException !

I think its because directX can only read bitmaps or jpg's -
view http://www.xtremedotnettalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=82842 for info about how to display textures.. a file's attached - it should show you how to display an image..
unfortunately im having the same problem - the image is blurry

the really problems isn't image format (it read jpeg, gif and tga) but image dimension. Most graphics card when load an image deform it on one of this format
2x2 -4x4 - 8x8 16 x16 and go on
the if you load a bitmap of 250 x 300 it load it as 256 x256 or 256 x 512

the use only square texture

howerver tha first metod isn't correct
m_texture = new Texture(dev, m_bitmap, 0, Pool.Default);
if you use 0 directX'll found the best possible
sorry for bad inglish but I'm Italian

no probs,

m_texture = new Texture(dev, m_bitmap, 0, Pool.Default); <--

i'd use m_texture = TExtureLoaded.LoadFile(etc..),
im sorry - i dont remember the exact arguments but i'll get back to you when i am on the computer with .net


edit: try this - m_texture = new Texture(dev, m_bitmap, Usage.SoftwareProcessing, Pool.Default); i found it on another post lol
