G3D Description

G3D project is a high-performance 3D graphics for games and simulations. G3D project is a high-performance 3D graphics for games and simulations.G3D is a C++ library for game developers, researchers, and students. It is a base of robust and high performance code common to most 3D projects. It is not a stand-alone graphics or game engine, but is a set of pieces to jump start your own engine or graphics project. The library has two parts: G3D for pure math, and GLG3D for interacting with hardware acceleration via OpenGL. You can use G3D without GLG3D if you want to use another 3D API (like DirectX) or don't like the OpenGL abstraction.What's New in This Release:· This release contains a hardware accelerated, skinnable OpenGL GUI, a new user manual, a new unified build system for all platforms, zipfile loading, and hundreds of other new features. What's New in This Release: · Video file reading and writing via FFmpeg added · Added computeBounds method to ArticulatedModel::Part that calls computeBounds on each TriList. Changed updateAll to automatically call computeBounds · Added constructor to Matrix4 to construct a matrix from an upper-left 3x3 submatrix and an upper-right 3x1 submatrix · Incompatible change: RegistryUtil functions now require an explicit value parameter instead of extracting the value from the key string. · Incompatible change:GApp now calls the onLogic handler before the simulation handlers but after the user input and network handlers · Incompatible change: Changed GHashCode and other functors to traits. See guidenewuser. Added typedefs and adapters to make this mostly backwards compatible. · Added parallax occlusion mapping to G3D::SuperShader (specify Material::parallaxSteps > 1) · Added normal mapping to G3D::SuperShader (specify Material::parallaxSteps == 0) · G3D::Texture resizes textures that exceed the device maximum size · G3D::Array now allows control over MIN_ELEMENTS and MIN_BYTES using template parameters · Clarified G3D::Any file format in documentation · G3D::Texture::PreProcess::gammaAdjust · G3D::ShadowMap::lightProjection(), G3D::ShadowMap::lightFrame() · Added Barycentric coordinates to CollisionDetection::isPointInTriangle · G3D::RenderDevice::beginOpenGL, G3D::RenderDevice::endOpenGL · PointAABSPTree::clearData · AABSPTree -> KDTree · GApp now allows the MidgetManager to process events in onEvent before the GApp::onEvent executes · Added spotlight support to SuperShader · Switched SuperShader to use ph · Adjusted standard deviation used in G3D::GaussianBlur to provide smoother filtering · Put HashTrait and EqualsTrait in their own headers separate from Table.h · ArticulatedModel::facet · Renamed GWindow to G3D::OSWindow · ReferenceCountedPointer now asserts that the pointer is not NULL on method invocation · G3D::ShadowMap now computes appropriate matrices for spot lights · Added ImageFormat::convert · 3- and 4- argument min and max · G3D::GaussianBlur now correctly sets the output viewport · G3D::Framebuffer::clear · IFSModel and ArticulatedModel now load Princeton Shape Benchmark OFF files. · G3D::Any CoordinateFrame now serialized using angles · CameraControlWindow now prints angles in degrees · ImageXXX classes now have a format() method · OSWindow::create · MeshAlg::toIndexedTriList now supports TRIANGLE_FAN input. · Tuned Table and hash functions for performance · GEvent::toString · G3D::TextInput now treats characters with ASCII code greater than 127 as symbols · G3D::ThreadSet · G3D::Texture::white · G3D::Matrix4::upper3x3 · G3D::Matrix4::homoMul · ArticulateModel::fromFile now takes a Matrix4 instead of a CoordinateFrame to allow arbitrary linear transformations. · ArticulatedModel::createCornellBox · Material::createDiffuse · ImageFormat::convert · G3D::filenameBase · Removed SDL_SysWMEvent, which was never supported by GEvent anyway · Removed TextureFormat::SAME_AS_SCREEN to break dependence on OpenGL · TextureFormat has been renamed to G3D::ImageFormat and moved into G3D.lib · Added variable time control points to G3D::Spline · Gui controls now have configureable GuiControl::setCaptionSize · Gui controls now default to no indent if the caption is "" (use " " for indent with no caption) · G3D::GuiContainer · G3D::GThread::started · buildg3d installation arguments changed--see · G3D::Vector3int32 · GuiButton now accepts an optional callback function/method · FileDialog now accepts an extra "note" argument · FileDialog::getFilename non-static to support subclassing · System::currentDateString · Expanded G3D::ArticulatedModel documentation · Build system now executes on multiple processors (about 1.8x speedup for dual-core) · Build system now caches dependencies (about 5x speedup for small incremental builds) · Patched LOAD_EXTENSION to work around gcc pointer-to-function cast issues · Tool buttons added to a G3D::GuiPane automatically align to the previous one. · Added invisible GuiPane style · G3D::uint128 · Increased BSPMap rendering by 10% by reducing state changes · Added prompt argument to FileDialog::getFilename · G3D::PosedModel::getBoxBounds on an array · G3D::PosedModel::getSphereBounds on an array · Changed RenderDevice::screenshot to save .png instead of .jpg files · G3D::SuperShader now supports a customMap and customConstant for experimenting with shaders. · G3D::SuperShader now does not ever light the "back" of a bump-mapped poly, even if the bumps should create a light-facing surface · G3D::Material promoted to its own class (was G3D::SuperShader::Material) · G3D::Matrix2 · G3D::VertexAndPixelShader::ArgList::size · G3D::pathConcat · G3D::WidgetManager::moveWidgetToBack · SuperShader / NonShadowed.pix now uses arrays of lights instead of separate variables · Reduced cost of release-mode Shader argument validation · G3D::PosedModel::sortAndRender now performs view-frustum culling of objects · G3D::Draw::lighting for visualizing light sources · G3D::SuperShader::Pass::purgeCache · G3D::GuiSlider::setRange · G3D::GuiPane::addPane no longer takes a · G3D::VertexAndPixelShader::ArgList::remove · Optimized G3D::Matrix::pseudoInverse;
