💡 About the project

My first RayCaster with miniLibX

This project is inspired by the world-famous Wolfenstein 3D game, which was the first FPS ever. It will enable you to explore ray-casting. Your goal will be to make a dynamic view inside a maze, in which you’ll have to find your way.

⚡ Raycasting

Raycasting simulates a 3D environment by casting rays from the player’s viewpoint to detect objects and walls. It calculates the distance and angle of each ray to render a corresponding vertical slice, creating the illusion of depth and perspective.

🚀 Running the game

🌟We use personnaly the MLX42🌟

Linux (you need Xlaunch or equivalent if you are in wsl on windows ❗)

sudo cmake MLX42 -B MLX42/build; cd MLX42/build; sudo make; cd ../..; sudo apt-get install mpg123
make run

MacOS (You need to use brew)

make run

This will launch the previously compiled project with make and execute it.

💻 Configurating the map

It will allow you to setup the following parameters :

• NO -- define the north texture
• SO -- define the south texture
• WE -- define the west texture
• EA -- define the east texture
• DO -- define the door texture
• F -- define the floor color (rgb)
• C -- define the ceiling color (rgb)

F 0,0,0 C 80, 0, 0

Then you can put a valid map

A valid map has one player, all floors are surrounded by walls (1)
