Today, I'm going to write a class that represents a texture resource in the low-level render engine. We can use this class to read form texture data...
Previously, I wrote a free-list container which had a vector as its buffer and I ran into the problem of conflicting destruction of items which made...
Today's video is less related to game engine programming and more about creating utility functions that we need in order to organize the data within...
In the last video, I made a render surface class that uses a DXGI swap chain and today I'm going to integrate that class into our low-level renderer,...
Right now we're in the middle of implementing a DirectX 12 renderer and so far we've created a d3d12 device, a command structure to submit work to...
In the last video we started implementing an allocator class for managing descriptor heaps. After writing the initialize and allocate functions, we...
In this new episode, I'm going to write an allocator class that keeps track of resource descriptors for our graphics resources. I'll start with a...
In the last video, we set up a command queue, command list and a set of command allocators to be used for multiple frame buffers in such a way that...
Last time, we set up the graphics engine architecture, consisting of a high-level renderer and one or more low-level renderers. We also started...
Previously, I set up the high-level renderer and defined how it would interact with a low-level renderer through an interface. I also added the...
Today, after almost a year of game engine programming videos, I'm really excited to finally start working on the graphics renderer! So far we've been...
Today, we'll finish writing the code that saves the geometry to asset files. The main thing that's left to do is to generate an icon for the 3D...
We spent the last couple of episodes setting up the asset pipeline and started with the geometry asset. We created the content tools to generate and...
Last time, we wrote a function that successfully generates a mesh for a UV sphere. We also made a user control which we can use to set the properties...
Today I'd like to add a new type of primitive mesh to the geometry pipeline, which is a UV sphere. I think this is an interesting exercise to also...
Previously, we started visualizing the 3D geometry that we got from content tools, the last step of which was being able to move the camera around...
In the last two videos, we set up the geometry pipeline to accept a geometry asset class from the content tools and started working on a WPF renderer...
Today, we're going to start working on an asset editor class for geometry assets. We'll also prepare for viewing a geometry asset by writing a mesh...
In the previous episode we wrote some of the functionality that we need in the geometry asset class in order to further process the generated or...
Now that we have the data structures in place for geometry asset, we can go ahead and unpack the imported geometry so that we can process it further...
