42-Vox

Objective

This project aims to confront you to a graphic project that will be extremely demanding
in terms of optimization. You will have to study the characteristics of the voxel worlds,
and use them along your infographics knowledge to display a lot of elements on screen.
Thus, you will have to study different algo/opti to obtain a SMOOTH render (there are
many of them). You will also have to manage your memory and data structures properly
to be able to travel in a very, very large universe.

See subject.pdf.

Requirement

• Go
• OpenGL 4

How to "play"

• asdw to move
• lctrl and space to go up and down
• mouse to look around
• lshift to set speed at x20, lalt to set it at x50
• ` to show some stats (fps, number of triangles, positions, ...)
• 2 to change seed on live
• 3 to use Isometric View
