Website may be up and down over next few months. I'm currently doing a complete overhaul of everything. Going back to simple individual .htm pages, new overall site theme, sanitizing and cleaning up html of all pages and blog posts, attempting to implement a new tooling and publishing system etc etc.

CBXInput4XNA

The CBXInput4XNA library is a easy to use user input library that provides an easier to way to aquire user input.

Below lists the current status of the various features that are either currently working or on the drawing table. For the most recent source updates see the codeplex site where the most up to date CBXInput4XNA code base is kept.

Working features

  1. Can get and set button states for keyboard, mouse and gamepad.
  2. Uses interfaces.
  3. Stores the previous state of the input devices as well as the current state.
  4. Comes with a ready made GameComponent for ease of use.
  5. Code contains conditional compilation so compiling under xbox360 is easier.

Features on the drawing table and issues to be fixed

  1. Need to add or change the way the developer access game pad info. It currently requires too much coding.
