This is a very shabby upload of my personal one-man project. It is not by any means complete. I have spent 1.5 years working on this in my sparetime. A lot of things will be very dirty, some things will be missing, and some things will seem to exist for no reason at all. This is NOT a cleaned up project. (yet!)

It should be added that a lot in this readme is just plain wrong as well. Check http://svkonsult.se/kit for more information about this project and its uses.

Sharing this mainly for educational reasons, dont expect it to hold any "public release" quality. Enjoy!

Kit depends on the following libraries:

• GLFW3 (Window and input management)
• Freetype 2 (Text rendering)
• Chaiscript (Scripting)
• OpenGL (Rendering)

Regular makefile build.

make -j 10 && sudo make install

Tip: Use -j 10 to parallelize the object compilation, which makes it compile much faster.

The C++ library is the main part of the framework. It provides low-level helper classes for OpenGL 4.5, as well as more higher-level classes for rendering terrains, user interfaces, physically based rendering etc.

The world editor is pretty self-explanatory, it is where level/game-designers will do most of their work. It allows you to design levels in the world, as well as place gameplay-related triggers/entities which is then scripted in Your-Favourite-Editor®. This allows the developer to easily design and implement in-game puzzles, quests or even mini-games. This part of the framework is pretty tied to LoN, and might be separated from the framework in the future.

The material editor is a small (but important) tool that allows graphics designers to adapt assets with realtime feedback. It supports albedo maps, roughness and metalness maps (with adjustable gamma and input/output levels), emissive maps and normal maps (with adjustable normal strength). It also allows the developer to preview materials on custom meshes and even animated models.

The asset importer is a tool that allows graphics designers to convert 3D assets into files usable by the Kit framework, in a manner that lets the artist preserve relations (between geometry->materials etc.) and asserts artist-controlled naming of the assets. These files includes; Kit Geometry files, Kit Mesh files, Kit Skeleton files (with animations) and Kit Material files. This part is integrated into the material designer.
