This is a pretty simple tutorial where I explain the user interface and briefly touch on some brushing. This is a video tutorial.

This is the publicly available series, so new tutorials will be a week late (premium members get them before). If you are a premium member, you can get the page here. This is a continuation of the XNA Advanced Techniques series (the one that was horribly done). In this series, we will cover more advanced topics and hopefully have all videos in sync! Just like the last topic, I will update this post regularly, but I will post a new post whenever I update it.

  • Display Changes
    In this tutorial, we will develop a way to change the resolution of your game while playing, and a way to go full screen. NOTE: I cannot demonstrate a full screen change during a recording. So if you want to see it working, download the sample.Released to the public

Found this Box2D addon for XNA and i have used it before when i used DarkBasicPro and know it is really good. But as i am a beginner of both C# and XNA.
Also it seems there are no helpfiles/documents for Box2D for XNA

Jumping into others code and know how it works is still hard, and i believe others think so too. And as your video tutorials are so good. Is it possible you could show the progress from when adding this functionality into your own existing project and using it? ( i couldnt even run the package i downloaded from that page so it would really be nice to know how to make it work in my "future existing" project )

Hope my english was good enough to understand what i requested]]> Mon, 12 Apr 2010 21:16:16 +0000 http://www.phstudios.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1623-xna-video-tutorial-request/
