Tomorrow marks one month I’ve been on my DirectX 11 Journey.
My initial commit was September 24th.
And what have I accomplished in a month?
I have a cube rendered to screen, that can’t be rotated yet :)

January 6th, 2014 - Back in action and a new build pushed
Sorry - I was on vacation/etc mostly for about a month but I've pushed a new build that allows significant customization of the map system. Before it was hardcoded to WoW values. I added this system when I was working on converting Wildstar formats (in-progress), but realized it was going to be required at some point to give people the ability to do crazy things - like use 1024x1024 terrain textures and increase/decrease terrain resolution after already working with a unit scale for awhile,
I mostly fixed normal re-calculation after terrain extrusion. The major thing to add in build 23 (in progress) is going to be some sort of GUI for terrain picking when alpha painting. There's a way to do it now but without seeing the texture you're going to use, it seemed a bit pointless to describe the method.
Memory Leaks of Doom
February 18th, 2012 - By this time, I'm loading a ton of stuff. I can kind of move around the world, though things are pretty slow. Working with this many resources is no joke.
A significant thing keeping me from being able to do much at this point is a huge memory leak. I could load about 6 map tiles before going OOM (800-900 megs used by the client). Clearly I was not handling COM objects properly.. or something.
This frustration of only being able to be in the client for a brief period of time, combined with things getting hectic at work crunch again, meant I put the project away from November 2011 to February 2012.
Before I quit for awhile, I made a lot of textfiles like this, trying to figure out what was going on:
When I came back to it, I eventually, using PIX, figured out where all my COM issues were. It will tell you exactly what frame something was destroyed on - so anything that's never destroyed is leaking. However, there was still a huge memory leak after all this. I believe it turned out to be that I was not deleting the raw alpha map buffers that were being turned into textures.
