About:

Simple 3d engine based on SFML library. I tried to make this engine powerful and easy to understand.

The main goal - to implement basic 3D graphics from scratch (without OpenGL or any other 3D graphics library)

For this moment I already implemented:

• Operations with Point4D, Matrix4x4, Triangles and Mesh. I used operators overloading to simplify coding.
• Projections from 3D on 2D plane, movement and rotation of camera and meshes.
• Triangles clipping
• Advanced smooth animations by using Bézier curves for meshes and camera
• External camera (You can see how 3D world projected on 2D plane and the process of clipping)
• You can render animated scene to .mp4 files or sequence of .png files (film/img/ & film/mp4). But it is extremely slow process due-to SFML waste a lot of time on saving .png files. It is still better to capture your screen by some additional software.
• Physics engine
• Network system

Installation:

1. Download and install OpenAL library for SFML sound support (in current version you can't setup this engine without OpenAL)

   openal: https://openal.org/downloads/

2. Install SFML on your computer (The compiler versions have to match 100%):

   sfml: https://www.sfml-dev.org/download.php

3. Open CLion or Visual Studio

   CLion (recommended): https://www.jetbrains.com/clion/

   Visual Studio: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/ru/

4. Clone this repository
