GeneralDirectX 9 Pin
Jim Taylor29-Jul-04 23:35
Jim Taylor29-Jul-04 23:35 
I have installed the managed directx sdk version 9. I have written an application in vb.net that displays some very basic artificial life forms that move in flocks around the screen using Microsoft.DirectX.DirectDraw. I am successfully drawing to both surfaces (Microsoft.DirectX.DirectDraw.Surface) and calling the Surface.Flip method to put the buffer surface's content onto the main surface (Surface.Flip makes the surface memory associated with the BackBuffer surface become associated with the front-buffer surface). What I can't manage to do is keep the back surface's content without it dissapearing i.e. I want to carry on overlaying what I am drawing onto it with each flip. I know why it is lost - when a flip is carried out the pixels are blitted to the main surface. I need some way of maintaining it on the back surface. Does anybody know how to do this?

Jim
