Hi all,

I have a custom effect with multiple techniques (for example with and without alpha blend).
According to mesh content I need to set the default CurrentTechnique with the appropriate value.
Is it possible to set the default CurrentTechnique of a custom effect in a processor?
I can not find this property in the EffectMaterialContent class. Can it be set as an OpaqueData?

Thanks.

There isn't currently any way to do this: it will always just pick the default (first) technique.

You you add this by deriving a new class from EffectMaterialContent, and writing a custom loader that would chain to our own, then also serialize the extra data.

Please file this as a suggestion on Connect if you'd like to see it added in a future version.

I just post my suggection on Connect.
