Description
Delphi Graphics and Game Programming Exposed! with DirectX is a comprehensive reference describing high-performance graphics and game programming techniques in the Delphi development environment. Author John Ayres begins with a discussion of basic game programming and graphics concepts, and moves quickly into an introduction of DirectX, which gives Delphi developers a high-performance interface to system-level hardware while maintaining the benefits of the Windows operating system. Palettes, sprite animation, collision detection, and sound and music are also discussed.
In addition the book includes a complete example game illustrating the different techniques discussed throughout, an appendix explaining how to use DirectSetup for installing DirectX, and a glossary of common words and phrases used in the game programming industry.
The CD includes:
- Source code from the book’s projects
- full retail version of Delphi 4
- 60-day trial version of Delphi 5 Enterprise
- DirectX header files from Project JEDI
- freeware sound effects, MIDI musical compositions, and the SpriteLib sprite library
