A hobby game engine written in C++ and Direct3D 10 for the purpose of exploring modern rendering and game development techniques.

• Deferred rendering and shading pipeline, with four 32-bit RTs making up the G-Buffer. Materials with diffuse, normal, specular and emissive maps",
• Template driven dynamic shader builder that eliminates unnecessary branching by generating shaders with specific feature sets
• Integrated with Newton Game Dynamics physics engine enabling car driving simulation and collisions with terrain amd dynamic voxel environment. Physics is evaluated in a multi-threaded fashion running in parallel to the rendering thread
• 3D heightmap terrain with quad-tree culling and lightmap baking
• Voxel level geometry with arbitrary tile types and automatic hidden face removal between neighboring tiles of different shapes
• Fast GPU particle system
• PCF shadow mapping
• Post-processing effects composer (bloom, gaussian blur, SSAO, FXAA)
• Custom GUI with two way data-binding and dynamic stylesheets reloaded automatically upon file changes
• Hierarchical scene-graph> with bounding volumes hierarchy
• Custom OBB collision system for voxel/terrain
• Built-in profiler with framegraph, highlighting performance chokepoints

The project has the following dependencies:

• Assimp library for loading model files
• DevIL for image handling
• json-spirit as a c++ json parser
• Newton Game Dynamics
• boost 1.47
