DX .NET

DX .NET, a fork of SharpDX, is free software allowing the development of high performance game, 2D and 3D graphics rendering as well as realtime sound application.
One of the assumptions of the fork was to cut it off from other libraries and add the generated C++ headers to the code, so that compilation is not dependent on any libraries. DX .NET uses only the capabilities of the .NET platform.

dxnet's Issues

Some UWP samples needed

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm looking for some nice and simple "game-dev" library/engine (audio support, 2d graphics, simple renderers for game-emulators like EmuNES...)

Describe the solution you'd like
Some UWP samples needed. Or, maybe, Xamarin Forms samples (ideal) :)

DXNET.Direct2D1 cant find any nuget package?

DXNET.Direct2D1 cant find any nuget package?

RawInput.Multimedia.UsagePage/UsageId missing in .nuget packages

Hello,

It seems to me that RawInput.Multimedia.UsagePage/UsageId are missing in .nuget packages, so I cannot use DXNET.RawInput.

Thanks in advance

No nuget for net6.0 ?

NotImplementedException in packages

In packages (and in source code), the Interop.cs file, which should be generated by InteropBuilder (according to comments) only contains methods which generate a NotImplementedException exception.

For example, I cannot use RawInput (crash in Device.GetDevices, which uses Utilities.SizeOf).

Thanks in advance,
Cordially
