Working in C#/XNA for a Windows game: I'm using Texture2D to draw sprites. All of my sprites are 16 x 32. The sprites move around the screen as you would expect, by changing the top X/Y position of them when they're being drawn by the spritebatch.
Most of the time when I run the game, the sprites appear like this:
and when moved, they move as I expect, as one element.
Infrequently they appear like this:
and when moved it's like there are two sprites with a gap in between them - it's hard to describe.
It only seems to happen sometimes - is there something I'm missing? I'd really like to know why this is happening.
[Edit:] Adding Draw code as requested:
This is the main draw routine - it first draws the sprite to a RenderTarget then blows it up by a scale of 4:
protected override void Draw(GameTime gameTime)
{
// Draw to render target
GraphicsDevice.SetRenderTarget(renderTarget);
GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.CornflowerBlue);
Texture2D imSprite = null;
spriteBatch.Begin(SpriteSortMode.FrontToBack, null, SamplerState.PointWrap, null, null);
ManSprite.Draw(spriteBatch);
base.Draw(gameTime);
spriteBatch.End();
// Draw render target to screen
GraphicsDevice.SetRenderTarget(null);
imageFrame = (Texture2D)renderTarget;
GraphicsDevice.Clear(ClearOptions.Target | ClearOptions.DepthBuffer, Color.DarkSlateBlue, 1.0f, 0);
spriteBatch.Begin(SpriteSortMode.FrontToBack, null, SamplerState.PointClamp, null, null);
spriteBatch.Draw(imageFrame, new Vector2(0, 0), null, Color.White, 0, new Vector2(0, 0), IM_SCALE, SpriteEffects.None, 0);
spriteBatch.End();
}
This is the draw routine for the Sprite class:
public virtual void Draw(SpriteBatch spriteBatch)
{
spriteBatch.Draw(Texture, new Vector2(PositionX, PositionY), null, Color.White, 0.0f, Vector2.Zero, Scale, SpriteEffects.None, 0.3f);
}
