Detailed Description

The game class is the object-oriented implementation of the game. This class must contain the following public member functions. Initialize() does initialization and will be run exactly once at the start of the game. ProcessFrame() will be called once per frame to create and render the next animation frame. Release() will be called at game exit but before any destructors are run.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~CGame()

CGame::~CGame

(

)

Delete the object manager and physics world.

Member Function Documentation

BeginGame()

void CGame::BeginGame ( )

private

Clear any old objects out of the object manager and create the edges of the game world, which correspond to the edges of the window.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

CreateObjects()

void CGame::CreateObjects ( )

private

Ask the object manager to create the game objects.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

Initialize()

void CGame::Initialize

(

)

Set the timer to a fixed time step. Create the renderer and load images. Create the object manager and physics world.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

KeyboardHandler()

void CGame::KeyboardHandler ( )

private

Poll the keyboard state and respond to the key presses that happened since the last frame.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

LoadSprites()

void CGame::LoadSprites ( )

private

Create a media list Sage::CMediaList of eSprite. For each sprite, insert into the media list a pair consisting of an instance of the sprite enumerated type eSprite and the corresponding string used in the name field in a <sprite> tag in GameSettings.xml. Pass the media list to the renderer for loading.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

ProcessFrame()

void CGame::ProcessFrame

(

)

This function will be called regularly to process and render a frame of animation, which involves the following. Handle keyboard input. Move the game objects in physics world. Render a frame of animation. Process any changes to the current game state.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

ProcessState()

void CGame::ProcessState ( )

private

Process any changes to the current game state. If the game is in state eGameState::Loading and both the renderer and sound manager have finished loading (which may or may not be multithreaded), then begin the game.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

Release()

void CGame::Release

(

)

Release all of the DirectX12 objects by deleting the renderer.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

RenderFrame()

void CGame::RenderFrame ( )

private

Draw the game objects. The renderer is notified of the start and end of the frame so that it can let Direct3D do its pipelining jiggery-pokery. If the game state indicates that media is still loading, then a Loading... string is drawn at the center of the screen. This function assumes that the font specified in GameSettings.xml has already been loaded. If all media has finished loading, then the game objects are drawn by the object manager.
