#gamedev progress:

  • reworked book model to fix issues with normals when book was opened
  • refactored input handling from event based to having a big struct of the input state passed to the update function
  • implemented the first interaction with the world. Books can now be picked up and placed back into shelves

#gamedev progress:

  • Static geometry (walls, floor ceiling) is split up into smaller chunks to allow culling
    • Implementation: generated geometry is loaded into a BVH with a larger leaf size (256). The geometry of each leaf is converted to an entity.
    • Culling via distance to the player.
  • Added player physics. No longer clipping through walls and shelves. Not stable enough yet.
  • Reworked ray casting system to handle animated objects correctly.
  • Player can now click on books to open them.

#gamedev progress:

  • small refactoring of OcTree to simply change the intersection test function during construction. This allows to choose between accurate or fast functions.
  • OcTree is working now. Only included the static geometry at the moment. Can now ray cast into the scene.

#gamedev progress:

  • reworked animation system to allow drawing instanced animated objects
  • each instance has an animation time
  • animation matrices are generated as frames

The normals of the animated mesh still look wrong. Not yet sure why.

Many animated books in shelves

#gamedev progress:

  • Procedural book shelves are now used within the level, replacing the fixed model.
  • Started implementation of a world state object as "array of fat structs"
  • Implemented an algorithm to find free space within a shelf for a new book.

#gamedev progress:

Implemented a procedural version of the book shelves. The geometry is created by simple inset and extrusion operations on quads.
