ResolveTexture2D - The nightmare in XNA 4


I have the following declaration:

ResolveTexture2D rightTex;

And I use it in the Draw method like so:

GraphicsDevice.ResolveBackBuffer(rightTex);

Now, I then draw it out using the SpriteBatch:

spriteBatch.Draw(rightTex, new Rectangle(0, 0, 800, 600), Color.Cyan);

This works fantastic in XNA 3.1. But, now I'm converting to XNA 4, ResolveTexture2D and the ResolveBackBuffer method have been removed. How would I re-code this in order to work in XNA 4.0?

EDIT

So, here is some more code to maybe help. Here I initialise the RenderTargets:

PresentationParameters pp = GraphicsDevice.PresentationParameters;
leftTex = new RenderTarget2D(GraphicsDevice, pp.BackBufferWidth, pp.BackBufferHeight, true, pp.BackBufferFormat, pp.DepthStencilFormat);
rightTex = new RenderTarget2D(GraphicsDevice, pp.BackBufferWidth, pp.BackBufferHeight, true, pp.BackBufferFormat, pp.DepthStencilFormat);

Then, in my Draw method I do:

GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.Gray);
rightCam.render(model, Matrix.CreateScale(0.1f), modelAbsTrans);
GraphicsDevice.SetRenderTarget(rightTex);
GraphicsDevice.SetRenderTarget(null);

GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.Gray);
leftCam.render(model, Matrix.CreateScale(0.1f), modelAbsTrans);
GraphicsDevice.SetRenderTarget(leftTex);
GraphicsDevice.SetRenderTarget(null);

GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.Black);

//start the SpriteBatch with Additive Blend Mode
spriteBatch.Begin(SpriteSortMode.Immediate, BlendState.Additive);
    spriteBatch.Draw(rightTex, new Rectangle(0, 0, 800, 600), Color.Cyan);
    spriteBatch.Draw(leftTex, new Rectangle(0, 0, 800, 600), Color.Red);
spriteBatch.End();

Solution

  • ahhh, here you go: Move the GraphicsDevice.SetRenderTarget() before the GraphicsDevice.Clear() call
