Name

Description

ParticleSystemManager()()()()

Initializes a new instance of the ParticleSystemManager class.

ParticleSystemManager(ParticleSystemManager)

Initializes a new instance of the ParticleSystemManager class, copying the settings of the given Particle System Manager.

Name

Description

AddParticleSystem

Add an initialized Particle System to the Particle System Manager.

NOTE: This sets the Particle System's ParticleSystemManagerToCopyPropertiesFrom property to this Particle System Manager.

AutoInitializeAllParticleSystems

Calls the AutoInitialize() function for every Particle System in this Manager

ContainsParticleSystem(Int32)

Returns true if the Particle System with the given ID is in the Manager, false if not.

ContainsParticleSystem(IDPSFParticleSystem)

Returns true if the given Particle System is in the Manager, false if not.

CopyFrom

Copies the given DPSF Particle System Manager's information into this Manager.

DestroyAllParticleSystems

Calls the Destroy() function for every Particle System in this Manager

DestroyAndRemoveAllParticleSystems

Destroys each Particle System in the Manager, then removes them from the Manager

DrawAllParticleSystems

Draws all of the Particle Systems.

NOTE: This will only Draw the Particle Systems if they do not inherit from DrawableGameComponent, since if they do they will be drawn automatically by the Game object.

DrawAllParticleSystemsAnimationToFiles

Draws the Particle Systems' Animation over the given timespan to a sequence of Image files.

NOTE: This function is not available on the Xbox 360.

DrawAllParticleSystemsForced

Draws all of the Particle Systems, even if they inherit from DrawableGameComponent.

NOTE: If the Particle Systems inherit from DrawableGameComponent and this is called, the Particle Systems will be drawn twice each frame; once here and once when called automatically by the game object. If not inheriting from DrawableGameComponent, this function acts the same as calling DrawAllParticleSystems().

DrawAllParticleSystemsToTexture

Draws all of the Particle Systems to a Texture and returns the Texture, which has a Transparent Black background

Equals

Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.

(Inherited from Object.)

Finalize

Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.

(Inherited from Object.)

GetHashCode

Serves as a hash function for a particular type.

(Inherited from Object.)

GetType

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object.)

MemberwiseClone

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object.)

RemoveAllParticleSystems

Removes all Particle Systems from the Particle System Manager

RemoveParticleSystem(Int32)

Removes the specified Particle System from the Particle System Manager. Returns true if the Particle System was found and removed, false if it was not found.

RemoveParticleSystem(IDPSFParticleSystem)

Removes the specified Particle System from the Particle System Manager. Returns true if the Particle System was found and removed, false if it was not found.

SetCameraPositionForAllParticleSystems

Sets the CameraPosition property of all particle systems in this manager to the given Camera Position. This is done by calling the particle system's virtual SetCameraPosition() function.

SetEnabledAndVisibleStatesForAllParticleSystems

Sets the Enabled and Visible properties of all particle systems in this manager to the given states.

SetEnabledStateForAllParticleSystems

Sets the Enabled property of all particle systems in this manager to the given state.

SetPerformanceProfilingIsEnabledForAllParticleSystems

Sets the PerformanceProfilingIsEnabled property of all particle systems in this manager to the given value.

SetSimulationSpeedForAllParticleSystems

Sets each individual Particle Systems' Simulation Speed to the specified Simulation Speed.

SetTransformationMatrixForAllSpriteParticleSystems

Sets the SpriteBatchSettings.TransformationMatrix for all Sprite Particle Systems in this Manager.

SetUpdatesPerSecondForAllParticleSystems

Sets each individual Particle Systems' Updates Per Second to the specified Updates Per Second.

SetVisibleStateForAllParticleSystems

Sets the Visible property of all particle systems in this manager to the given state.

SetWorldViewProjectionMatricesForAllParticleSystems

Sets the World, View, and Projection Matrices for all of the Particle Systems in this Manager.

NOTE: Sprite particle systems are not affected by the World, View, and Projection matrices.

ToString

Returns a String that represents the current Object.

(Inherited from Object.)

UpdateAllParticleSystems

Updates all of the Particle Systems.

NOTE: This will only Update the Particle Systems if they do not inherit from DrawableGameComponent, since if they do they will be updated automatically by the Game object.

UpdateAllParticleSystemsForced

Updates all of the Particle Systems.

NOTE: If the Particle Systems inherit from DrawableGameComponent and this is called, the Particle Systems will be updated twice each frame; once here and once when called automatically by the game object. If not inheriting from DrawableGameComponent, this function acts the same as calling UpdateAllParticleSystems().

Name

Description

Enabled

Get / Set if the Particle Systems should be Updated or not.

ParticleSystems

Returns a Linked List of handles to the Particle Systems in this Manager

ParticleSystemsInheritDrawableGameComponent

Get if the Particle Systems are inheriting from DrawableGameComponent or not

SimulationSpeed

Get / Set how fast the Particle System Simulations should run.

Example: 1.0 = normal speed, 0.5 = half speed, 2.0 = double speed.

NOTE: This sets the SimulationSpeed property of each individual Particle System in this Manager to the given value. It will also set a particle system's Simulation Speed when the particle system is re-initialized, and when a new Particle System is added to the Manager in the future.

NOTE: Setting this property only has an effect if the SimulationSpeedIsEnabled property is true.

NOTE: This will be set to zero if a negative value is specified.

SimulationSpeedIsEnabled

Get / Set if the Particle System Manager's SimulationSpeed property should be used for each of the particle systems it contains or not.

Default value is true.

TotalNumberOfActiveParticles

Get the cumulative Number Of Active Particles of all Particle Systems in this Manager

TotalNumberOfParticlesAllocatedInMemory

Get the cumulative Max Number Of Particles allocated in memory by all Particle Systems in the Manager.

TotalNumberOfParticlesBeingDrawn

Get the cumulative Number Of Particles Being Drawn by all Particle Systems in this Manager. This is the total number of Active AND Visible Particles.

NOTE: This ignores whether the Manager is Visible or not.

TotalPerformanceTimeToDoDrawsInMilliseconds

Gets the cumulative time (in milliseconds) it took to perform the Draw() function on each particle system in this manager.

Note: Only particle systems that have their PerformanceProfilingIsEnabled property set to true will be included in this total.

TotalPerformanceTimeToDoUpdatesInMilliseconds

Gets the cumulative time (in milliseconds) it took to perform the Update() function on each particle system in this manager.

Note: Only particle systems that have their PerformanceProfilingIsEnabled property set to true will be included in this total.

UpdatesPerSecond

Get / Set how often the Particle Systems should be Updated.

NOTE: This sets the UpdatesPerSecond property of each individual Particle System in this Manager to the given value. It will also set a particle system's Updates Per Second when the particle system is re-initialized, and when a new Particle System is added to the Manager in the future.

NOTE: Setting this property only has an effect if the UpdatesPerSecondIsEnabled property is true.

NOTE: A value of zero means update the particle systems every time Update() is called.

NOTE: This will be set to zero if a negative value is specified.

UpdatesPerSecondIsEnabled

Get / Set if the Particle System Manager's UpdatesPerSecond property should be used for each of the particle systems it contains or not.

Default value is true.

Visible

Get / Set if this Particle Systems should be drawn or not.

NOTE: Setting this to false causes the particle systems' Draw() function to not be called, including the particle systems' BeforeDraw() and AfterDraw() functions.
