Facilis Engine Description

Facilis Engine - Up and coming graphics engine written entirely in managed code Facilis is an up and coming graphics engine written entirely in managed code. It is capable of rendering with both DirectX9 and OpenGL. The engine runs in Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux without use of plugins or rebuilding from source.Utilises OpenGL, Direct3D9, and Xna through an abstraction layer. Accompanied by a number of other helpful tools, for example to simplify input and networking.NOTE: Currently the project is pre-alpha. Many features are either not implemented, or early in planning. Constant interface changes are to be expected. And of course, bugs galore.Here are some key features of "Facilis Engine": General:· Takes full advantage of the NET framework for a significant boost to productivity with insignificant loss of performance.· Support for either OpenGL or Direct3D9.· Graphics code is divided into two sections: a thin, abstract wrapper around rendering systems, and an engine built on top of the wrapper. The wrapper can be used independently of the engine. Capabilities:· Truetype bitmap fonts (soon outline fonts as well) (Win32 only).· Multiple window rendering (Win32 only).· Dynamic textures.· Multitexturing.· Normal mapping.· Rudimentary shader support (under development).· Loading and animating Quake 2 md2 files.· Hierarchy of scene nodes to which objects are attached. Child nodes and their attached objects are transformed relative to the parent node.· A rudimentary particle system that will form the basis for a more sophisticated, pluggable one.
