XNA=DirectXMath? Xbox Live part of Windows 8
XNA on Windows 8? Really? From Microsoft? No. Check out MonoGame. However, I have to say that my opportunity is to focus on C++, but for you, MonoGame might be interesting.
What happened to XNA? I have no idea. One day I woke up and realized that no matter how much I whined about it, XNA was gone from Windows 8 Modern UI that will also work on the ARM devices. ARM is going to be big, so I will need to be ready for it.
Inside of C++, here lies the remains of XNA, and this is the principle things that many XNA designers moved to: XNA Math Library. Pretty major stuff. More later, and I have written a little about the vector math, etc. XNA ships as DirectXMath.
- DirectXMath:
- What XNA Math Library types, functions and constants are not available:
How about Xbox Live? I am getting started again with the //Build video
- https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/BUILD/BUILD2011/PLAT-756T
- Definitely need to review that video, I used the speed up to 1.4 since there was no technical discussion
So:
- Xbox Live, part of Windows 8
- XNA is now DirectXMath
