FullMetalEngine is a wannabe game engine in its early infancy phase. Currently it contains a very basic implementation of a rendering engine, some utilities, and soon to come is a small physics simulation component. The development of the engine started at mid 2017, and since then I lazily work on it on the weekends.
Huge props to this guy, who taught me most of what I know about OpenGL and inspired me when writing this engine.
- Shadow rendering? Hmm...maybe.
- Text rendering
- Widgets, if I'm really feeling masochistic
- Physics simulation module - I have started reading a wonderful book and I plan on coding the basic components soon!
- Lights are now available for the obj shaders. I'm not sure about adding support for the other shaders because they simply render geometric objects, but if anyone complains I will fix it.
- A project containing a simple usage example - I will add a few more in the future, and clarify stuff on the wiki page
FullMetalEngine depends on the following libraries:
-
Assimp - An asset loading library
-
glfw - Handles windowing, user input and other non-fun stuff. Use version >= 3.2.1.
-
GLEW - extension loading library. Use version => 2.0.
-
glm - math library for OpenGL. . Use version > 0.9.
-
PicoJson - a tiny (pico) Json parser.
-
SOIL - super old library for image loading.
I advise you to download and compile these yourself, because pre-compiled versions are not necessarily the latest.
For Windows 10, VS build:
- Currently I just place all the dependecies in one folder, and have an enviromental variable called "Third_Party" pointing at it.
For Ubuntu 18.04, Eclipse build:
- I have added project files for Eclipse, so you should be able to compile it without too much hassle, if you have all the dependencies somehwere in your /usr directories. I will make a proper CMake file for it soon.
Want to contribute? Great! Send me 6-pack of diet coke :)
MIT, I think. But if you buy me a 6-pack of diet coke I won't complain.
