This is a slightly modified port of SpriteManager2d, which provides an easy way to draw 2D objects to the screen. It was done by user Smiley80.
For questions, bug reports etc. use this forum thread.

Features
- Render two dimensional images
- It also can write text - use a font textures and set the uv-coordinates appropriately
- ...
Usage
- Initialization (after you created the SceneManager). Note: This sets the properties to their default values.
SpriteManager.Initialize(sceneMgr);
- In the program's main loop (e.g. the FrameStarted eventhandler). Note: The sprite buffer is cleared after each rendering (sprites.Clear() in Render()), so you have to enqueue the sprites you want to draw each frame.
SpriteManager.EnqueueTexture(textureName, x1, y1, x2, y2, alpha);
- Shutdown (before root.Dispose()).
SpriteManager.Shutdown();
Properties
- TargetQueue specifies before or after which RenderQueue the rendering should happen (default is RenderQueueGroupID.RENDER_QUEUE_OVERLAY).
- AfterQueue indicates that the rendering should happen after the specified RenderQueue (default is false).
- MinimalHardwareBufferSize specifies an the initial and minimum size of the HardwareBuffer. This prevents the HardwareBuffer from being constantly destroyed and recreated when the number sprites increases (if the number of sprites * 6 is below or equal the value of MinimalHardwareBufferSize) (default is 120).
EnqueueTexture in depth
EnqueueTexture(textureName, x1, y1, x2, y2, tx1, ty1, tx2, ty2, alpha)
- textureName is the filename of the texture you want to draw. The method ensure that the texture is loaded, so it doesn't have to be done beforehand.
- (x1; y1) is the coordinate of the top-left corner and (x2; y2) is the coodinate of the bottom-right corner of the sprite. The values of x and y range are in screen space (-1 to 1). If you want to use screen coordinates in pixel, you have to convert them using the following formulas:
For x-coordinates:
((float)x / screen-width) * 2 - 1
For y-coordinates:
-(((float)y / screen-height) * 2 - 1)
Example:
Assuming the screen resolution is 1280x960, the position should be at (320; 240) and the size of the sprite is 640x480:
x1 = 320, y1 = 240 => x1 = -0.5, y1 = 0.5 ; x2 = 960, y2 = 720 => x1 = 0.5, y2 = -0.5
- tx1, ty1, tx2, ty2 are the uv-coordinates of the texture (0 to 1). The default is "0, 0, 1, 1" which draws the whole texture.
- alpha is the alpha value (D'oh) which ranges from 0 to 1. Where 0 is fully transparent and 1 is fully opaque.
Performance Issues
Enqueuing a lot of sprites (100+) each frame leads to a significant framerate drop. In such case remove sprites.Clear() from Render(), enqueue the sprites only once and add a method, which allows you to remove a sprite manually.
