"necroposting" :) Just press once the power button on the device and it will run the test

It’s a documentary of my everyday morning commute

Thank you! That’s very kind 👍 If you’re looking for a good video tutorial course and some source code that builds up a 3D engine from scratch using pixel arrays with C and SDL, Pikuma has a very good one - pikuma.com/courses/learn-3d-computer-graphics-programming - I’ve not finished it yet but he goes through the concepts from the ground up. It’s a paid for course I’m afraid, but he’s a very good teacher and has some other interesting courses. I have done a little bit of 3D in the past with OpenGLES (and M3G on the old J2ME phones) and using a library like that, which handles a lot of the complexity for you like texturing and culling/clipping makes things easier. If I was doing this as a commercial thing and not a small fun side project I think I’d be using WebGL or an engine. Part of my reasoning for doing it from scratch (in JS) with arrays of pixel buffers is a personal one really - having done little demos in the past for devices that no longer exist and tools that no longer run made me think it’d be good to do something that might last a bit longer. C and C++ is a good choice though, hope you’re able to work things out!

I’ve just remembered I have an old work friend who has written his own C++ 3D engine if you’re interested, he has a UA-cam channel youtube.com/@MrBensanmorris and his engine fireflytech.org - just in case it’s of any interest or use! 👍

i'd say its an unoptimised raytracer

@@brownbeltninja7237 it’s not as clever as that I’m afraid, but yes it’s unoptimised 🙂 It’s just generating some projected x,y points in a grid and going into the screen on the z axis with a fake perspective effect using scaling factors for the z, to get horizontal scaled strips of squares, then makes sure they’re centred, creates faces that refer to the points, then blocks that refer to faces, works out the draw order for faces and for blocks and then I’ve made a horizontal quad pixel drawing function that samples a texture to draw the faces in the correct back to front order (I’m not using a depth buffer.) It’s using RGBA pixel buffers and then rendering the buffer to a canvas. I’m just doing it this way for a bit of fun and for my own learning over a few evenings. I’m aiming to recreate something like the first person games from the 1980’s and 90’s (games like Dungeon Master, Captive, Knightmare.) If I was doing this to make a proper game I’d be using something a bit more optimised like WebGL which handles all the projection, culling and z-buffering etc for you 🙂 (and probably a dedicated engine.) Although I hope to get a little game working at some point. thanks! 🙂✌️

@@pixelfingers That make's sense, thanks for sharing your method!

The block placement and textures being chosen, but it’s just to test it’s working. I’ll be making it work from a top down map soon with blocks with sides.

@@pixelfingers oh, is it completely random or somewhat procedural

@@BinkiklouGaminglol just random at the moment but when I’ve got it rendering from a 2D map (which I’ve worked out and have started looking at today) I can get it to generate a maze or level in 2D 🙂 thank you!

Nice!

How much did u buy last time

Yes, it’s written in code

+TheMorfeus2 late i know there are probably libraries for this EDIT: goo.gl/3M5XUP

Already found it ;)

+TheMorfeus2 oh great :D

I've not really used Sparrow or Cocos2d so I can't really comment much - I did take a brief look at the API documentation for both, and they look like they have a lot more classes, although they all seem to share the same idea with everything structured in a tree as a scene graph: 1. doc.sparrow-framework.org/v2/ (Sparrow) 2. www.cocos2d-iphone.org/docs/api/index.html (Cocos2d) 3. bit.ly/1nhxp6S (SpriteKit) I guess underneath they're all doing the same thing and making calls to OpenGLES, so I would have thought performance would be roughly the same between all three. It looks like you already get a lot out of the box with both Sparrow and Cocos2d, and it looks like there's a lot more tutorials. The downside (or upside) with SpriteKit is that it looks like it doesn't come with audio support, so you'd have to start using the iOS audio APIs, or another library, e.g. ObjectAL (which I think runs on iOS and Mac.) SpriteKit is an interesting one if you're thinking of doing desktop games, because OS X Mavericks also has the SpriteKit framework, although you'd probably need to include your sources in a new project (or perhaps create a library) with the desktop APIs, e.g. NSApplicationDelegate/NSViewController etc. I've been playing about with GLKit on iOS as well, and have already done some other videos with 3D sprites using OpenGLES calls to create my own sprite batches; and I know Apple also have SceneKit on the desktop - from reading this MacWorld article: bit.ly/1jxQwXf It looks like Apple are certainly thinking about games, with these graphics and other APIs (e.g. Games Controller API.) One good thing about using the Apple APIs is that they might decide one day to release a console based on AppleTV or iOS!

I've made the source code repository available: bitbucket.org/pixeltopia/spritely

you can use SKScene method touchesMoved:withEvent: and UITouch method locationInNode: there's some examples here: bit.ly/1lpkCww

I've updated the source code on bitbucket to show you how you might get the boxes to respond to touches, and have uploaded a video example: Sprite Kit Tiling, Panning and Tapping

I've updated source code with camera movement and tracking nodes: Sprite Kit Camera Movement
