lite-C Description

Lite-c is intended for quickly and easily developing graphics or virtual reality applications - such as 2D or 3D computer games - even without previous programming knowledge. Sounds, images, movies, user interfaces, 2D and 3D models, collision detection, rigid body physics, multitasking, and DirectX functions are already a native part of the language. Therefore, a few lines in lite-C achieve results that would require hundreds of source code lines with normal C/C compilers. This makes it a perfect system for creating casual games. Lite-C is also an ideal solution for learning programming. Its syntax is similar to the C/C programming language, but much easier - and more fun - to learn. Anything that's scary to a beginner, like memory and pointer handling, is automatically managed in lite-C. No crashes, memory leaks, and pointer arithmetics anymore! The lite-C package contains a complete development environment with 3D model and terrain editor, code editor, compiler, debugger, an integrated 3D engine, a physics engine, many samples including DirectX and OpenGL programs, and a tutorial with 24 easy workshops. Main features: -Extended C syntax, easy and transparent multitasking -Compiles on the fly to machine code -Easy integration of external APIs (OpenGL, DirectX) with DLL or COM interface -Powerful ABT (Adaptive Binary Tree) rendering engine -2D and 3D sprites and models, vertex and bones animation -Programmable particle effect generators -Rigid body physics and collision engine -Terrain-based game levels and BSP-based Gamestudio levels -Layered sky system with sky cubes, sky domes, clouds and backdrop images -Shadow-throwing point and spot light sources -Built-in vector, matrix, physics and collision functions -GUI objects with button, slider, gauge elements, Truetype and bitmap fonts -Supports all DirectX 9 functions -Play functions for sound, music and movie files and CD tracks -Syntax-highlighting script editor with single-step debugger -Free level / model / terrain editor and importer -Small footprint - ca. 20 MB only (without editors and demo games) -Small requirements - runs even on old machines (such as P3-500 / Riva TNT2) -Extensible: Vertex/pixel shaders, network functions... -Supported file formats: FBX, 3DS, X, OBJ, ASE, MAP, MDL, MD2, FX, BMP, PCX, TGA, JPG, DDS, WAD, MID, WAV, OGG, MP3, MPG, AVI.
