Quote: "1) Sync()

Updates the scene with the latest information, draws all sprites, updates global objects, and swaps the backbuffer into view. Does not draw sprites you have created using pointers in tier 2, you must draw these manually by calling the sprite's Draw function or assigning them to a sprite manager for batch drawing.



2) Update()

Updates all 2D and 3D objects based on the given time, animation, physics, etc. If time is 0 it uses the last frame time to step the simulation. If you have already called StepPhysics this frame it will not be called again for this frame. Called automatically by Sync, you may either use Sync or Update(), Render(), Swap() to manually sync. If you wish to have more control you can break this down further by replacing Update with Update2D, Update3D()



3) Render()

Draws all 2D and 3D created using an ID number to the current frame buffer. It does not swap the backbuffer to the screen. It does not draw sprites or objects you have created using pointers, you will either have to draw them individually or assign them to a sprite manager to batch draw them. In this case Render should still be called as it also draws the print text. Called automatically by Sync, you may either use Sync or Update(), Render(), Swap() to manually sync. If you wish to have more control you can break this down further and replace Render with Render2DBack, ClearDepthBuffer, Render3D, ClearDepthBuffer, Render2DFront



4) Swap()

Displays the back buffer to the screen and clears the backbuffer for the next frame, updates global time variables. Called automatically by Sync, you may either use Sync or Update, Render, Swap one after the other to manually sync. "
