rae_render_cpp

Small component based OpenGL renderer with NanoVG textures and Assimp model importing, and 3D picking shader

Features:

• Click on the object in the middle, and other objects will appear with an animation. Clicking on the other objects will destroy them.

• Per pixel shading

• 3D picking via shader and glReadPixels.

• This time I tried making a component based system, instead of the more traditional object oriented. There's just a base for a component system.

• Animatable textures with NanoVG, using frameBufferObjects.

• Move the camera with WASD and arrow keys.

• I-key will add objects, and O-key will destroy them.

• Esc to quit.

Source code is found under "src/rae".

Build instructions

# on Linux (use premake4.4beta, not 4.3 which comes with Ubuntu 14.04):
premake4 gmake
# I had to install the GL headers:
sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libassimp-dev
# I installed GLFW3 and GLEW from source, and copied the libs to the lib_linux dir,
# and I also copied libassimp.so to the lib_linux dir. 
# And finally:
make
# cd into the bin directory and run:
./rae_render

# on OSX:
premake4 xcode4
# Open the project file and build it.

# on Windows:
premake4 vs2012
# Open the project file and build it.
# You may need to retarget it to vs2013 or vs2015 after opening it

Some known/TODO issues with the code:

• The component system is not very finished
• GLFW code should be separated into something like a Window class.
