DirectX::SpriteFont/SpriteBatch 阻止绘制 3D 场景

Question

我在使用 DirectX::SpriteFont/DirectX::SpriteBatch 时遇到问题（来自 DirectXTK；与此处讨论的问题完全相同：Problems when drawing text using the SpriteFont class）。

void DrawScene(void)
{
    HRESULT hr;

    float bgColor_a[4] = { 0.0f, 0.4f, 0.8f, 0.0f };

    g_pDeviceContext->ClearRenderTargetView(g_pRenderTargetView, bgColor_a);
    g_pDeviceContext->ClearDepthStencilView(g_pDepthStencilView, D3D11_CLEAR_DEPTH | D3D11_CLEAR_STENCIL, 1.0f, 0);

    XMMATRIX cameraProj = XMLoadFloat4x4(&g_camera._cameraProjection);
    XMVECTOR pos = XMLoadFloat3(&g_camera._pos);
    XMVECTOR target = XMLoadFloat3(&g_camera._target);
    XMVECTOR up = XMLoadFloat3(&g_camera._up);
    XMMATRIX cameraView = XMMatrixLookAtLH(pos, target, up);
    XMMATRIX worldBox2 = XMMatrixIdentity() * (XMMatrixTranslation(2.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f) * XMMatrixRotationY(XMConvertToRadians(g_rotBox2)));
    XMMATRIX wvp = worldBox2 * cameraView * cameraProj;
    XMMATRIX transposeWvp = XMMatrixTranspose(wvp);
    XMStoreFloat4x4(&g_constantBufferPerObject._wvp, transposeWvp);
    g_pDeviceContext->UpdateSubresource(g_pConstantBufferPerObject, 0, NULL, &g_constantBufferPerObject, 0, 0);
    g_pDeviceContext->VSSetConstantBuffers(0, 1, &g_pConstantBufferPerObject);

    g_pDeviceContext->PSSetShaderResources(0, 1, &g_pCageTexture);
    g_pDeviceContext->PSSetSamplers(0, 1, &g_pCubeTextureSamplerState);

    // box
    g_pDeviceContext->DrawIndexed(36, 0, 0);

    wchar_t buffer[32];
    swprintf_s(buffer, 32, L"%.2f", g_fps._fps);

    //g_pSpriteBatch->Begin();
    //g_pSpriteFont->DrawString(g_pSpriteBatch, buffer, XMFLOAT2(30, 30));
    //g_pSpriteBatch->End();

    // Present the backbuffer to the screen
    hr = g_pSwapChain->Present(0, 0);
    if (FAILED(hr))
    {
        ErrorBoxW(L"Cannot present without error.");
    }
}

如果不调用SpriteBatch::Begin()、SpriteFont::DrawString 和SpriteBatch::End()，您将看到一个带纹理的立方体在空间（笼子）中旋转。通过调用所描述的函数，您将只能在左上角看到每秒帧数，但看不到旋转立方体。

我按照 github DirectXTK 上 Chuck Walbourn 的教程，结合使用 SpriteFont 绘制字符串和渲染原始 3D 对象（一个简单的三角形）的 2 个教程。在此示例中，我将看到测试字符串绘制在三角形上。但我不明白为什么我的示例中的旋转立方体在使用 DirectXTK 的SpriteFont 类绘制文本字符串时不可见，我什至找不到根本原因。

像素着色器文件（PixelShader.hlsl）：

struct VS_OUTPUT
{
    float4 Pos : SV_POSITION;
    float4 Color : COLOR;
    float2 TexCoord : TEXCOORD;
};

Texture2D ObjTexture;
SamplerState ObjSamplerState;

float4 PS( VS_OUTPUT input ) : SV_TARGET
{
    float4 diffuse = ObjTexture.Sample(ObjSamplerState, input.TexCoord);
    clip(diffuse.a - 0.25);
    return diffuse;
}

顶点着色器文件（VertexShader.hlsl）：

cbuffer constantBufferPerObject
{
    float4x4 WVP;
    float ColorAdjust;
    int Mode;
    int Pad[2];
};

struct VS_OUTPUT
{
    float4 Pos : SV_POSITION;
    float4 Color : COLOR;
    float2 TexCoord : TEXCOORD;
};

VS_OUTPUT VS( float4 pos : POSITION, float4 color : COLOR_ZERO, float4 color2 : COLOR_ONE, float2 texCoord : TEXCOORD )
{
    VS_OUTPUT output;
    float4 temp;
    output.Pos = mul(pos, WVP);  
    temp = color;
    output.Color.r = temp.r * color2.r * (1.0f - ColorAdjust);
    output.Color.g = temp.g * color2.g * (1.0f - ColorAdjust);
    output.Color.b = temp.b * color2.b * (1.0f - ColorAdjust);
    output.Color.a = color.a * color2.a;
    output.TexCoord = texCoord;
    return output;
}

重现问题：我正在使用 Visual Studio 2015 社区版。我将 DirectXTK (.lib) 和 DirectXTex (WICTextureLoader .cpp/.h, DDSTextureLoader .cpp/.h, .lib) 添加到我的项目中。立方体的图像是带有 alpha 的 .png。

注意：我创建了这个重复问题，以

关于另一个问题。

Answer 1

首先，由于您使用的是 DirectXTK，因此不需要 DirectXTex。 DirectXTex 适用于纹理处理工具，而 DirectXTK 纹理加载器更适合在应用程序中使用。见this blog post。

第二，不要使用古老的timeGetTime函数。您可以使用GetTickCount，尽管GetTickCount64 更好，因为它可以避免溢出问题。然而，对于帧定时，这些还不够精确。您应该看看DirectX Tool Kit 教程中使用的StepTimer.h。

第三，您应该考虑使用Microsoft::WRL::ComPtr 而不是所有SAFE_RELEASE 宏的东西。有关详细信息，请参阅this page。

您的代码也包含xinput.h。您应该看看使用 DirectX Tool Kit 的 GamePad，它有很多好处。如果不出意外，它使用 XInput 的能力可能比你想象的要强。

说了这么多，你的问题很简单：你在InitScene中为你的场景设置了渲染状态，但是绘制任何东西会改变状态正是SpriteBatch 所做的。我记录了 DirectX Toolkit 中每个对象在 wiki 上操作的渲染状态。

你需要设置你的 Draw 需要每一帧的所有状态，而不是假设它是永久设置的，如果你做的不止一次。

void DrawScene(void)

    // box
    g_pDeviceContext->DrawIndexed(36, 0, 0);

    wchar_t buffer[32];
    swprintf_s(buffer, 32, L"%.2f", g_fps._fps);

    g_pSpriteBatch->Begin();
    g_pSpriteFont->DrawString(g_pSpriteBatch, buffer, XMFLOAT2(30, 30));
    g_pSpriteBatch->End();

    // Present the backbuffer to the screen
    hr = g_pSwapChain->Present(0, 0);
//>>>> This behavior means the app crashes if you hit a DEVICE_REMOVED or DEVICE_RESET.
    if (FAILED(hr))
    {
        ErrorBoxW(L"Cannot present without error.");
    }
}

您通常可以为视口状态RSSetViewports“设置它并忘记它”，这也隐式设置剪刀状态，但更好的用法是在您执行初始Clear 时在每一帧的开头设置它.这是我在Direct3D Game Templates 中使用的模式。
