GPlayEngine is a C++ cross-platform game engine for creating 2D/3D games.
GPlayEngine is based on the GamePlay 3D engine v3.0 and principally replace the OpenGL 2.x backend to use the BGFX graphic framework.
- cmake is used as main build system (qtcreator is also up-to-date)
- bgfx integration is completed and replace opengl.
- bgfx is currently forced to use the opengl driver because engine still use some old glsl shaders. A pass on shaders is planned to use the bgfx shader syntax to be fully compatible with others bgfx backends.
- Engine now use SDL2 by default to manage windows and inputs. Gamepad are not yet implanted.
- Lua is temporarily disabled to speed up the compilation during core dev phase.
- All previous samples and demo are now working with the new renderer.
- A new sample "sample-graphics" is used to test bgfx conversion and new features.
- Only tested on Linux, Windows and Emscripten for now.
Some thirdparty libraries are registered as submodules, you need to install them before building engine.
git submodule init
git submodule update
