Xenia: Xbox 360 Emulator
XNA died when the people behind it left, thus the C++ side won once again, and DirectXTK was born as replacement.
https://walbourn.github.io/directxtk/
Years later they kind of sponsored Monogame, when they were recovering from XBox One mess,
https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2016/03/14/letter-chris-charla-i...
By the way, I think one of these episodes talks about the emulation, but I am not certain if it was on this podcast I heard about it.

Need help converting wav files to XWB without the wav file names being changed
So for the past 8 hours, I've been trying to mod the music files for Bloons Monkey City. I converted some songs I wanted to use in BMC using audacity to wav and made sure to rename the files to the songs I wanted to replace. I used XWBtool to repackage the wav files into an XWB file, the file format BMC uses to store its music in. I used Foobar2000 to view the XMB file, and for whatever reason all the song names get changed to whatever the XWB file name is after repackaging them using XWBtool (I.e. The XWB's file name is whatever the first wav file XWBtool repackages. In my case, "WaveBank#1 (MCity_MvM)" is the first wav file that gets repackaged, so for whatever reason every other file also gets its names changed to "WaveBank#1 (MCity_MvM)," which is causing me a problem as BMC won't be able to read the other music files.).

Where can I learn directX
DirectXtutorial doesn't seem to have the greatest C++ code either. I would definitely use ComPtr.

Thank you for your reply, I make spritefont from this link https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXTK/wiki/SpriteFont but still cannot show the right font Maybe have to check parameter of old font

I'm having a hard time staying committed to learning C++ and OpenGL for game development.
Because you get stuff like DirectXTK and PIX from the company that does the API, while on Khronos stuff you need to go hunting for comunity or GPU vendor specific tooling.

Is it possible and realistic to learn independent of an API?
Sort of, I'd recommend a modern higher level API. I'm not sure what the current recommended ones are (probably bgfx), but assuming the wrapper is "low level enough", then the concepts you learn are still going to apply.

LWJGL = SFML vs Allegro vs SDL vs Ogre vs ???
There's kind of a lack of this for C++ in 3D, I think it's often due to the necessity of a secondary scripting language in game engines with C++, which isn't necessarily needed in Java or C#. SFML is like that (but also 2D), Godot is similar (but more geared towards 2D). Ogre3D is an actual engine like I mentioned earlier, not sure how easy it is to use. Cocos2d is higher level, but is also 2D only. I'm not fond of SDL, it feels like a windowing library with slow old school immediate mode stuff attached, so it ends up not being good at the rest of the tacked on things. SDL is popular as a windowing library, and it's why you see it used everywhere (but the most notable uses of it aren't using their drawing capabilities), I often see bgfx thrown around, and for you it might be a good choice, though I have no experience with it.

Is it a crazy idea to create a 3D operating system?
Another route could be using an abstraction over Vulkan (faster, more efficient, more difficult): bgfx, dawn, magma, or wgpu (Rust).

The update we all want but will never get
now, java is actually quite a performant language and even if its not most of the performance bugs in mc are due to it being single threaded, inefficient chunk generation and optimizing, and it built ontop of opengl WHICH isn't much of a performance hit but its still ehh idk it doesn't matter that much (NOW SWITCHING THE GAME TO AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT GRAPHICS API WOULD SUCK ASS TO DO (and vulkan is quite verbose :))) (AND also bgfx would probably be better due to it being an abstraction layer ontop of all the graphics apis so minecraft could target many depending on your platform (and also bedrock used to (or still does i dont know) use bgfx before they switched to just two (IF IM READING MC WIKI RIGHT BECAUSE IM NOT ENTIRELY SURE IF THEY USE BGFX STILL ?? SO THEY COULD STILL BE TARGETING MULTIPLE YET THEY JUST WROTE THEIR NEW SHIT BAD IDK))
