Hey there,

I have overiddden the draw method of my chr derived classes so I can add some additional info to the rendering (starting with a text label - with health bar, etc in the future)

However, while the text is rendering... it is glowing as if it was extremely overbright... What render mode should the text be rendered in?

Thanks!

Hi,
all 2d graphics should be drawn outside of Render function,
please check tutorial "game basics/custom parameters"

Allrighty - I can certaintly do that, however, that brings up the issue that I do not want to draw the info for objects that are not within the field of view...

Is there a way to tell if an object was rendered during the last render pass? If not - is there a way to test an object to see if would be rendered?

Thanks

Hi,

You can use Frustum checking, please see Frustum operators () (in Math\Frustum.h)

thanks for the help!
