if i have a LPDIRECT3DTEXTURE9 texture can i draw that texture more than once in a frame when ever i try none are drawn at all but it seems a waste to load the same texture more than once

You load the texture from file and then apply it to the various devices that you have. An idea:

cpp

//in initialization code
D3DXCreateTextureFromFile( g_pd3dDevice, "woodfloor.bmp", &g_pTexture );
//in render code
g_pd3dDevice->SetTexture( 0, g_pTexture );

i tried what you said but its still not working if i try to draw more than one none come up at all here's some of the code im using:

CODE

//code to load texture from file
D3DXCreateTextureFromFileEx(d3ddev, "pacDot.bmp", D3DX_DEFAULT, D3DX_DEFAULT, D3DX_DEFAULT, NULL, D3DFMT_A8R8G8B8, D3DPOOL_MANAGED, D3DX_DEFAULT, D3DX_DEFAULT, D3DCOLOR_XRGB(255, 0, 255), NULL, NULL, &pacDot);

//and the code to draw the image
for(int i = 1; i == 10; ++i) {
[indent]sptInterface->Draw(pacDot, NULL, &defaultCenter, &pacDotPosition[i], D3DCOLOR_XRGB(255,255,255));
}


i tried adding the SetTexture function in but it didnt seem to help

CODE

for(int i = 1; i == 10; ++i) {


Nasty :s

CODE

for(int i = 1; i < 10; i++) {


Better smile.gif

but i think you should add your textures to a vector or something like that so you can store them and get them easier

for example , load your texture from file, do some error checking to see if it has worked, convert to texture then return the texture and push it into a vector, then you can use the std vector functions to get the files smile.gif

good luck

That's a great idea staycrisp.

Also, I don't know how you have your device pointer set up, but you should be able to use one texture on all the objects in the world if you so desired.
