Thank you Morgawr, true it is very important to have the using statement. Otherwise the code will simply not compile. Thank you for pointing this out.

I found a small mistake (well, more like something you forgot to say).

Remember to add:
using RoEngine2.GameComponents;

at the beginning of your RoEngine2 class. At least, for me it didn’t work without it. Or did I do something wrong?

It didn’t recognize the FPSCounter class.

Cheers!

PS: This is awesome Thanks.

I would like to ask whether in this section is not used in the following code, it can be done then?

if (Updated != null)
Updated(this, new EventArgs());

public event EventHandler Updated;

Thank you for your comments and interest in this blog. I understand your suggestion for using Drawable Game Component and drawing a SpriteBatch from this object. However, my plan for managing game content is to use a ScreenManager to help control some of these SpriteBatches. Since I am using YagNi design principles, I decided to just do what I would need at this point in the series.

suggestion: implement a DrawableGameComponent to draw FPS on the screen, instead of using title…
