Edgyne is a basic 3D game engine created as a project for the university. The engine is done mimicking the Unity style, our version of it has a shader pipeline included to it.
The authors of this engine are two students at the UPC of barcelona, studying the degree in engineering of development and design of video games
- Importing FBX: To import a 3D model, drag and drop the file to the engine window. If everything is correct, the engine will generate a .edgymodel file in the Assets\Models folder which can be accessed from the Assets window.
- Updating the quadtree: The quadtree of the engine will be updated every time a GameObject is created or its switched to Static.
- Saving the Scene: By clicking in SaveScene, you save the currently open scene without changing the name. If you write a name in save scene as and press enter, the engine will check if the name already exists, and if not, will save the scene as a new one.
In video games, shaders are used as a way to add visual effects that would otherwise require extesive texture manipulation by creating a filter written as independent code. This shader can be separated into different categories depending on their main functionality:
- A vertex shader runs once for each of the vertexes of the mesh it's attached to and it's usually made to hold the vertex's traits, like its position and color.
- A pixel or fragment shader is applied individually to each pixel in order to get more precise effects by modifying its traits without affecting the original mesh.
- A geometric shader is a more specific kind of shader used in order to modify a mesh's geometry by adding new primitives to it.
- A tessellation shader used to change the polygon of a mesh depending usually on the distance to the camera in order to have better quality the closer it gets.
