我来询问XNA中的实例化
我是XNA的开发者，最近刚刚从2D游戏加速到3D游戏 我正在尝试在代码中绘制大量由顶点构成的立方体。正如人们可能怀疑的那样，绘制大量这些立方体会对我的计算机造成相当大的压力 当我在寻找提高绩效的方法时，我遇到了“实例化”一词 我不知道实例在XNA 4.0中如何工作，我一直在寻找适合我级别的人的教程 但是，我遇到的唯一教程（http://blogs.msdn.com/b/shawnhar/archive/2010/06/17/drawinstancedprimitives-in-xna-game-studio-4-0.aspx）是对我来说有点太先进了。我认为他正在使用模型，网格物体而不是顶点，所以我无法弄清楚哪一段代码实际上与我所追求的相关。
这就是我来找你的原因。如果有人能给我一个简单的（如果可能的话）教程或代码片段，解释如何使用XNA 4.0中用顶点绘制的立方体（或任何图形）进行实例化，我将非常感激。
答案 0 :(得分：9)
这是我能提出的最简单的代码片段。它改编了几个月前制作的代码，用于展示一些立方体，就像你需要的那样，没有模特也没有什么花哨的。

我在这个着色器旁边使用了THIS纹理：
float4x4 WVP;
texture cubeTexture;
sampler TextureSampler = sampler_state
{
texture = <cubeTexture>;
mipfilter = LINEAR;
minfilter = LINEAR;
magfilter = LINEAR;
};
struct InstancingVSinput
{
float4 Position : POSITION0;
float2 TexCoord : TEXCOORD0;
};
struct InstancingVSoutput
{
float4 Position : POSITION0;
float2 TexCoord : TEXCOORD0;
};
InstancingVSoutput InstancingVS(InstancingVSinput input, float4 instanceTransform : POSITION1,
float2 atlasCoord : TEXCOORD1)
{
InstancingVSoutput output;
float4 pos = input.Position + instanceTransform;
pos = mul(pos, WVP);
output.Position = pos;
output.TexCoord = float2((input.TexCoord.x / 2.0f) + (1.0f / 2.0f * atlasCoord.x),
(input.TexCoord.y / 2.0f) + (1.0f / 2.0f * atlasCoord.y));
return output;
}
float4 InstancingPS(InstancingVSoutput input) : COLOR0
{
return tex2D(TextureSampler, input.TexCoord);
}
technique Instancing
{
pass Pass0
{
VertexShader = compile vs_3_0 InstancingVS();
PixelShader = compile ps_3_0 InstancingPS();
}
}
应该命名为InstancingShader.fx并放在Content文件夹中。
从Game1中使用它就像调用：
一样简单instancing = new Instancing();
instancing.Initialize(this.GraphicsDevice);
instancing.Load(Content);
并在你的Draw方法中：
instancing.Draw(ref camera.View, ref camera.Projection, GraphicsDevice);
