• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How to improve DrawingBrush texture

  Hi all. These are my first days in 3D programming, so bear with me. I'm using WPF to display a 3D view of a geographical map of a site. The map is 2D vector art (so not a bitmap), and was exported as a DrawingGroup resource from Expression Graphic Designer (so as a XAML file). I apply this drawing as a DrawingBrush'ed material to a 3D plane. When the camera is close to this plane (like in a physical camera position), individual pixels of the texture get clearly visible (the closer, the more annoyingly clear). I understand vectorial textures are pixelated at some point, so I partitioned the 3D face up in a number of smaller triangles, hoping closer faces became finer textured. Yet this didn't seem to help. Do you have any ideas how I ca ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Meta data exchange with indigo webservice

  Hi, How can i exchange the metadata with the indigo service. Does WCF provide any particular facility for that Zille, WSDL does not provide any direct support for that, though I presume you could hack it in some way to do so (though it might cause interoperability problems). That said, I don't see the kind of data as belonging to the service contract metadata (which is really what the WSDL contains), but rather as a separate information service your endpoint exposess. In other words, if you have a service that performs your restaurant functions, you might have a second service (and service contract) that exposes your custom metadata about the restaurant. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Sound Recording or Automated Speach

  I want to create a program to train for Quiz Bowl. It allready has most of the logic in place for timing and stuff but I want it to ask the questions. I tried to find a library for the microsoft program Narrator but I couldn't. I think that the best way would be to have the program record the questions and save them in WAV files. They could be played back when needed. I need to, somehow in my program, identify a sound recording device like a microphone or webcam, start gathering data from it, and stop getting data from it on cue. If anyone knows how to do this in VB, your help would ge greatly appreciated. Thanks Lookup in the realms of Microsoft SpeechSDK ... DX has no speech recognition capabilities... ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions how to get all the files under node mouse click events

• Visual Studio Team System Recator-->Rename won't let me change the case of an object name

  As above. I want to change the name of a column from "MyId" to "MyID". When i try and make the change it moans at me saying: "A schema object with the name [Column] dbo.MyTable.MyId already exists. Choose a differernt name."   This is a little annoying to say the least! I think this is a legitimate thing to want to do.   Another problem. My workaround was to change it to "MyID_" and then to "MyID" which it didn't moan at but after those two operations the column was called "MyId" again. Not what I wanted at all (although the SQL script has changed - it looks like its just hanging onto some metadata somewhere I guess).
