Siren is a lightweight Cross Platform C++ program designed to render Wavefront .obj files into images. It provides a simple and efficient way to visualize 3D models without the need for complex graphics libraries.
- Rendering of Wavefront .obj files
- Support for basic material properties (e.g., diffuse color, specular color, shininess)
- Adjustable camera settings (e.g., position, orientation, field of view)
- Basic lighting support (ambient, diffuse, specular)
Siren does not depent any other graphics rendering library such as OpenGL or DirectX, the whole philosphy of Siren is rendering obj files without depending large third party libraries.
The only dependency that Siren have is my own TGA Image Library which used for generating rendered objects as .tga image files. Targalib is very compact header only library, check out the Targalib repository for more information.
Siren uses CMake as a build tool. You can compile the source code as:
- clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/lvnyky/siren.git- create a build directory
mkdir build
cd build/- generate makefiles
cmake ..4 then build it
make
