| ===== Idea ===== | ===== Idea ===== |
| To create a 3d game engine that is capable of creating 3d games. The functionality of this engine will be deferred rendering, shadows, lighting, texture mapping, bump mapping, displacement mapping, and others that may prove useful. Another aspect of this engine will be to have all of the key components to be modular. For example, the graphics engine can easily be changed between an OpenGL implementation and a Direct3d one. The final feature will be the ease in which the engine is configured. The configuration of the engine will be handled through the use of xml files. These files will be used to define states the engine can be in along with the objects that are contained within each state. The xml will also define the settings for each object along with the actions the object can preform. | To create a 3d game engine that is capable of creating 3d games.
