It's also for Xbox 360. Still in beta. Based on C#, sorry to VB programmer. Haven't try it yet. Maybe will try sometime after DirectX10 is release. I'm now write a software using DirectX9. Can't distribute beta version of DirectX to my clients, hehe Checkout this site for more infohttps://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/tmiller/ Edited November 18, 2006 by faulty.lee (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy89 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 i have heard that its made for distribution on xbox, but is the actual programming utility going to be made available on other os's? if so that would be great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tommydanger 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 No I don't think soIt requires the .net framework in order to run.Only way to see it on other os's is to emulate it :/Well for XNA itself I think it's a pretty nice tool.I downloaded their first beta release, don't know if they have made major changes since then but what I don't really like is you have to download an IDE from MS which of course isn't free (30 days trial mode)That really s**** :/Apart from that it's kewl, Games have to be written in C# which isn't that hard to learn if you haven written something in C++ before.You can use it to create XP oder Xbox360 Games.360Games only if you pay a little fee, so you can run your code on native 360, which isn't available if you don't sign inLook https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/game-development/ for further informations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
