This Tutorial creates a Blur effect on a rotating 3D Cube. As you can See with the FramesPerSecond reported above, this is an expensive process that downsamples, or depixelates Textures and redraws them to create a Bluring effect using SharpDX.

This Tutorial creates 4 triangles using only the verticies to create one in the vertex buffers using SharpDX.

This Tutorial creates one griant trangle that is further broken down into smaller triangles, creating more surface vectors from the one trangle object using SharpDX. This is the only Tutorial that utilizes Software WARP rendering because the machine I am developeing on only supports DirectX feature level 10.1, and Hardware rendered tesselations are only supported with graphics cards supporting DirectX feature level 11.0 for processing to be done on the GPU instead of the CPU.

This Tutorial creates particles using alpha blending, textures and ablended colour on square vector objects that are billboarded, created in a rondom position and drop from the top of the screen to the bottom, and then removed from the vertex buffers when below the screen all using SharpDX.

This Tutorial projects a shodow from a 3D Sphere and a 3D Cube against a square floor object with a directional light setting over the scene like the sun using SharpDX.

This Tutorial uses multiple directional light sources shining up against a 3D Sphere and 3D Cube using SharpDX.

This Tutorial issistrates how the shadows being cast against a 3D Floor from the Sphere and Cube are sampled at a high resulotion in order to make the shodow shape appear smooth on the floor using SharpDX.

This Tutorial renders a beautiful tree using an array of textures and while the light sets over the tree like the sun, it projects the shodow of the tree against the 3D Fllor that is textured as well, and all leaves are individually projected as part of the trees shadow as well, and very impressive too using SharpDX.

This Tutorial demonstrated a technique that is used when you want more then 8 light sources rendered on any given scene. Eight lights is a DirectX11 limitation that when using the GPU for shading, only 8 light positions can be processed realtime, so this is rendering the lighting and then as an additional step placing that rendering on a texture and placing that texture on a 3D Cube using SharpDX.

This Tutorial using lines, creates a large flat grid with a camera placed in front of it looking along a perspective view of the flat landscape using SharpDX. This and all following Tutorials all have movement capabilities with arrow keys and az for up/down movement.

This Tutorial uses a grayscale texture with white being represented as the peeks of mountains and black as the ground and it lifts the grid based upon its position in that texture creating a wireframe landscape using SharpDX.

This Tutorial introduces a conceot of dividing out the entore scene of 3D Objects into subsections in order to do or not do processing on those objects in that quad tree subsection, this subsectioniing is done by spliting the entire landscape into equal smaller parts using SharpDX.
