Early Game Development
|
These are some in-game screen shots of a new game stated to be released in late summer.
The player will be able to just jump-in-and-play. It's a third-person space-combat game. The camera is a typical third person camera. The graphics shots her... |

Genesis: Origins Wallpaper
|
I thought I'd make a wallpaper image and take a break from my physiscs engine last night. The game is still in development. I just under-estimated the effort... I will have to update my GDS page to reflect that.
About the wallpaper,
It's a... |

Still working on my game. Now on year 8. I have ported over to XNA and these screen shots are all done in XNA. It has Parallel Split Shadow Maps, Per-pixel-lighting and instancing. I am officially a convert to XNA. |

Universe's Expansion

I just had a thought... you know how scientists try to explain the expansion of the Universe on dark energy? What if space was like rubber? You can imagine two forces pulling at opsite ends and stretching it appart? Well the gravitational pul... |

Hi,
I thought I would try my hand at modeling. I used TrueSpace 7.6. I just have to figure out how to texture now :O The model is heavily influenced from RoboTech. I just got the ProtoCulture DVD Box set....

XNA 3.0
|
I'm just playing around with XNA 3.0, and wow, sometimes I wonder why I'm writting my engine in C++ DirectX10. XNA makes things so much easier. Does anyone know if XNA 3.0 will support HLSL 4.0? Or does it only support up to version 2? I li... |

Directx 10 Particle System

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has implemented a full particle system in directx 10 that ran completly on the GPU like the samples. In particular what is the performance hit on the GPU? Why not take advantage of the multi-core systems... |

Cascaded Shadow Map Impl

Hi,
I can't seem to figure out what to do about a problem with my cascaded shadow map implementation. I have some screen shots below. I get some artefacts when transitioning from one cascade to another. I think it gets confused. I tried vari... |

I Like Shaders!

I just implemented the silouhette extrusion of a basic Shadow Volume algorithm in DX10 in the GeometryShader Stage. I used the ShaderVolume10 sample as a guide to get the Adjacency sent properly to the shader. This implementation uses parallel li... |

Well, that's probably why I'm on year eight ;) I'm not throwing away my dx10 stuff... just shelving it for a bit. I think I can get the game completed quicker with XNA. |

Hey VladR,
Thanks for the motivation ;)
I don't have the planets right now, they are just part of the skybox... but I am considering having the planets non-static like in StarTrek Online.
XBLA was not the motivating factor... just the f... |

Well, the particle system uses an interplation method to handle this problem. This is what i tweaked in the original sample. Also, are you managing your partcles lifetime on the CPU or the GPU? I recommend the GPU. I also do recomend looki... |

Thanks Ashaman73,
It will be more of a third-person arcade style shooter. Single player for starters...
The trail effect is a particle trail. XNA to the rescue here! I didn't have to re-write my own since XNA already has a tutorial ... |

If you're learning either from the ground up, I'd suggest C# w/ XNA for speed of deployment. Automatic memory management alone will help solve a lot of elusive leaks.
If you're concerned about the potential inade... |

I've spoken to a few friends who are software engineers, and they have told me that C++, although would be a good place to start, c# is alot better (However slower) for game design.

Started DX10 - I'm hopeless at the maths!

yeah, it took me a few years to catch up with the math. I had to take a linear algebra course.. that's what "clicked-it" for me. I wrote my own software based 3D engine as a project for that course.
Hang in there, it will all come back. I thi... |
