\n1-initialise variables in Initialize<\/strong>
\n2-load your content (audio, fonts, textures) in loadcontent<\/strong>
\n3-put your update logic in update <\/strong>(check inputs, set new coordinates for a sprite, etc)
\n4-(re)draw your window in draw<\/strong> <\/p>\n
And thats basically it, you are ready to take advantage of all the classes and methods of the XNA framework \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Next article will show a working XNA app.<\/p>\n
To make it easy on you, at the end of this article is a template project for vs2013 : copy the zip file in C:\\Users\\username\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2013\\Templates\\ProjectTemplates and VS2013 will propose you to create a XNA project from scratch.<\/p>\n
See below for a skeleton class.<\/p>\n

You need to make a class that will inherit from Inherits Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game and in there you will have […]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34,35],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-544","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-dotnet","category-xna","category-34-id","category-35-id","post-seq-1","post-parity-odd","meta-position-corners","fix"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/544","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=544"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/544\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":598,"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/544\/revisions\/598"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=544"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=544"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/labalec.fr\/erwan\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=544"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
