Different Methods of drawing text

[oyasuna.dev]

First method (best in my opinion) -

void PrintText1(double x, double y, DWORD dwColor, LPD3DXFONT pFont, char *Text, ...)
{
	char buffer[256];

	//This is for handling the "..." parameters
    va_list argList;
    va_start(argList, Text);
    vsnprintf_s(buffer, sizeof(buffer), sizeof(buffer) - strlen(buffer), Text, argList);
    va_end(argList);

	//Our Rect to where the text will be printed
    RECT Rect =
	{
		x,
		y,
		x + 500,
		y + 50
	};

    pFont->DrawText(NULL, buffer, -1, &Rect, DT_NOCLIP, dwColor);
}

Second method -

void PrintText2(char *Text, double x, double y, DWORD dwColor, LPD3DXFONT pFont)
{
	RECT FontR =
	{
		x,
		y,
		x + 500,
		y + 30
	};
	pFont->DrawText(NULL, Text, -1, &FontR, DT_LEFT | DT_WORDBREAK, dwColor);
}

It's really just the same thing except without the extra arguments.
