Getting Started with XNA 4.0
Posted by
I’m going to get started with learning XNA 4.0 especially as it allows development for the new Microsoft Phone 7 device, which for me, to leverage such an existing technology that I understand, at least to a small degree and can basically get straight into, is quite an exciting prospect.
Here’s are the goodies:
- MSDN >> Windows Phone Developer Tools CTP
- Shawn Hargreaves Blog >> Breaking changes in XNA Game Studio 4.0
- Windows Phone: Developer Home
- MSDN >> XNA Game Studio 4.0
- MSDN >> Windows Phone Development
Go to link #1 and download and install the tools, which include the following:
- Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone CTP
- Windows Phone Emulator CTP
- Silverlight for Windows Phone CTP
- XNA 4.0 Game Studio CTP
While installing, make sure to pour over some of the changes at Shawn Hargreaves’ blog. It’ll surely help any head-scratching from the transition from 3.x 🙂
I’m not sure how much help the MSDN will be, but given that there’s not as much information about XNA 4.0 out there right now, it’s amongst the best bet.
