EffectTechnique Class

To use a EffectTechnique you must:

1. Create a EffectTechnique for each technique in your Effect.

   C#

   Copy

   public EffectTechnique texture;
   public EffectTechnique shadows;
   public EffectTechnique shadowMap;
   

2. Assign an Effect technique to your EffectTechnique.

   C#

   Copy

   texture = effect.Techniques["TextureRender"];
   shadowMap = effect.Techniques["ShadowMapRender"];
   shadows = effect.Techniques["ShadowRender"];
   

3. Assign your EffectTechnique to the CurrentTechnique of your Effect before drawing.

   C#

   Copy

   private void DrawScene(EffectTechnique technique)
   {
       MyEffect.mWorld.SetValue(terrainWorld);
       MyEffect.MeshTexture.SetValue(terrainTex);
       foreach (ModelMesh mesh in terrain.Meshes)
       {
           foreach (Effect effect in mesh.Effects)
           {
               effect.CurrentTechnique = technique;
               mesh.Draw();
           }
       }
   }
