Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~CGame()

CGame::~CGame

(

)

Delete the renderer, particle engines, object manager, and the dialog box.

Member Function Documentation

BeginGame()

void CGame::BeginGame ( )

private

Clear any old objects out of the object manager and create some new ones.

Initialize()

void CGame::Initialize

(

)

Initialize the renderer, particle engines, object manager, and the dialog box. Load images and sounds. Begin the game.

KeyboardHandler()

void CGame::KeyboardHandler ( )

private

This is essentially a null keyboard handler because all used input is handled by buttons on the dialog box.

Launch()

void CGame::Launch ( )

private

Create a ball and launch it, while playing the launch sound.

LoadSounds()

void CGame::LoadSounds ( )

private

Initialize the audio player and load game sounds.

ProcessFrame()

void CGame::ProcessFrame

(

)

Handle keyboard input, move the game objects and render them in their new positions and orientations. Notify the audio player at the start of each frame so that it can prevent multiple copies of a sound from starting on the same frame. Ask the particle engines to animate a frame for their particles and update the dialog box so that it shows reasonable up-to-date information in its edit boxes. If m_bLaunch has been set by the dialog box, then launch a ball.

ProcessLaunch()

void CGame::ProcessLaunch ( )

private

If the launch flag is set, launch a single ball and unset the flag. If the multilaunch flag is set, check whether enough time has passed to separate the balls by one radius given their launch speed and scale, and launch a new ball if it has. When enough balls have been launched, unset the multilaunch flag.

Release()

void CGame::Release

(

)

Release all of the DirectX12 objects by deleting the renderer.

RenderFrame()

void CGame::RenderFrame ( )

private

Ask the object manager to 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. In addition, draw the gate sprite on top of everything else and keep a record of the amount of time spent rendering and the amount of time waiting for the page flip. This will enable us to display an approximation to the processor load in the dialog box. Note: This function calls timeGetTime(), so make sure that winmm.lib is included in the library files.
