Chapter 5: Errata / Missing Code Highlights

Hey Chad,


Here are some errors I found today while working them through with a class.  I found it strange that I didn't catch it before.


Page 98:


The code referred to at the bottom of the page should be in the demo's Draw method, not the Update method.


Pages 99 - 103:


Code samples are using the playerIndex in the GamePads arrays.  The playerIndex member field is not introduced until later on page 106 for the Split Screen demo.


Page 102 - 103:


We should create an overridden Constructor for the FirstPersonCamera class that looks something like this:


public FirstPersonCamera( Game game ) 


: base( game )


{}


Without the above, the code would not compile and will give an error.


Hope this helps,


Alvin Tang
