FPS Flashlight

Polytech ET3 IT - Computer Graphics noted project for S6 (2020)

Objectives

Implement the different topics seen in class/TPs :

1. Scan conversion (lines, circles)
2. 2D/3D transformations, 3D object representations
3. Viewing/projections, hidden surface removal
4. Illumination, shading, texture mapping
5. Texture mapping continued, color and color models
6. Clipping/filling

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development purpose.

Prerequisites

Things you need to install the project :

• cmake - portable version is enough
• Visual Studio 15 - only 2017 edition works

Installing

Here are some instructions on how to get the development env running.

First, clone this repository with the following command : git clone https://github.com/adepreis/ComputerGraphicProject

Then, using cmake-gui :

You have to give cmake where the source code is, for example :

D:\...\ProjectFolder\ComputerGraphicProject

Then where to build the binaries, here in the corresponding path :

D:\...\ProjectFolder\ComputerGraphicProject\build

Then click 'Configure' twice : the first time you'll have to specify the 2017 version of Visual Studio. Once the configuration is done, click on the 'Generate' button. You will now find the /build folder in your project. Just execute the ComputerGraphicProject.sln in it in order to open the Visual Studio environment.

Get a coffee.

Now, VS is fully loaded

In Solution Explorer, choose the solution node's context (right-click on ComputerGraphicProject) menu and then choose 'Set as StartUp Project'.

For first time use, you will have to make sure that in 'Debug' tab > 'Properties' > 'Debugging', the 'Working Directory' is currently $(ProjectDir)/bin.

Now you could run the project after clicking the 'Start' button. (No additional parameters if you use the command line)

There you are!

Commands :

No controller needed, only a keyboard and a mouse.

To interact with our project, the keys to use are :

• z : move forward
• s : move backward
• q : move sideways to the left
• d : move sideways to the right
• Left Click on the mouse to turn on/off the flashlight
• You control the arm with your mouse cursor
