Hi, Firstly i would like to thank you for your tutorials and blogs. I found them really helpfull. The only problem is that when I publish (turning it to .exe files) a game using the game state management, it does not work. Well in theory, it only works on my computer but on other no. I dont know why this is happening as other games without the game state do work on other pc. If you have any solution to my prob ill really appreciate it. TY =)

[...] in the spirit of learning new things, I found a Visual Studio Template for making an XNA game already with game state management and an asynchronous loading screen. [...]

Easy :) I should probably provide an updated version :/

Anyway… load up the project in Visual Studio, remove all the references to XNA framework stuff (in the solution tree->References) and re-add them again to have the new ones. This should do it :)

and thank you for your feedback!!

Hey Nazeeh,

You’re tutorials are awesome! It’s really hard to find beginner game tutorials on the web and your’s are clear and to the point. Love it, thanks!

I was trying to use your template here to make a zune game with xna 3.0 but unfortunately ran into some problems. I get this message when trying to load the template

“this template attempted to load an untrusted compontent ‘Microsoft.XNA.GameStudio, Version=2.0.0.0, Current neutral, PublicKeyToken…… bla bla bla

Is the problem simply that the template was made to work with version 2 and Zune development is in version 3? Can I simply change the value of version to 3.0.0.0? Where is this line?

Thanks!

This is incredibly useful, thank you.
It’s just what I needed to convert my mini games into something “complete”.

The only problem I have had is in the implementation of HandleInput. In my game, the input can not be processed with out access to the GameTime, so I added this in to the function. I think this might be a good addition to your library.

I put together an article for Coding4Fun a long while ago (Managed DirectX Days), and have updated an Version to XNA 1.0r.

The above post should give you the steps to create a VSI File for your templates.
