.: Installing XNA Game Studio Express Beta 2

 
 

This tutorial is not necessary if you are using XNA version 1.0 or later.

First, download the new version here.

Second, uninstall XNA GSE Beta 1 from Add/Remove Programs in the control panel.

Third, install the new beta.

Fourth, start the last project and remove the XNA references from the project properties:

 

XNA in VB.NET - Remove XNA References

Select as above and press remove.

Fifth, add the new References:

XNA in VB.NET - Add new references

Add the new references as above.

Sixth, in the project error list you will see the following errors:

XNA in VB.NET - Beta 2 Errors

There have been a number of changes in the new beta, but for my project the only 2 that apply are shown above:

In the Render function, Device.BeginScene and Device.EndScene, no longer exist and both these methods can be deleted.

Once i started using XNA, i received a warning that a reference could not be found, this was solved by rebooting my pc. The only other change that i have made is to update my DirectX to the October version using the Web Update Tool.

The next tutorial will involve ball collision and once complete will be found on the tutorial's page.
