Xaphier Report post Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) Some features of the new engine: Support for OpenGL 2.0 vertex and fragment shaders Support for GL_ARB_vertex_program and GL_ARB_fragment_program Support for VBO's Support for FBO's Support for full screen post processing filters e.g. gaussian blur Support for loading on demand for resources like shaders, textures, mesh etc. Support for xml files for resource description to prevent hard coding these properties into the source code Support for 3d terrain Support for light managment Support for dds image file format Support for loading compressed textures without decompressing them Support for software decompression of DXT1-5, ATI1 & ATI2 compressed dds images Support for loading mipmaps Support for writing dds images Support for parallel spit shadow mapping Support for static instancing (merging multible objects into one to save draw calls) Optional support for SDL_image Optional support for zip files using zlib Dependencies: libxml2 (easy to replace with some other xml parser) iconv (easy to replace with with other char encoding converter) SDL Boost version 1.35 Scons (as build system, should be easy to replace with some other build system) Optional zlib Optional SDL_image Used build systems: Gentoo 2008.0, 64 bit with gcc-4.3.1 and gcc-4.1.2 Windows XP, 32 bit with Microsoft visual studio express 2008 Test systems: Gentoo 2008.0, 64 bit, AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ and ATI 1950 XP graphic card using latest ATI closed source drivers Windows XP, 32 bit, Intel® Pentium® M processor 1.86 Ghz and Intel 915 GM graphic card using latest Intel drivers Files: Source code Precompiled windows binary with dlls Data (needed for sdl_map_viewer) Images: I would be happy to hear about any comment.
