3D游戲引擎設計

前言

　　The first edition of 3D Game Engine Design appeared in print over six years ago （September 2000）. At that time， shader programming did not exist on consumer graphics hardware. All rendering was performed using the fixed-function pipeline， which consisted.

內(nèi)容概要

本書深入剖析了3D游戲引擎的設計，書中許多內(nèi)容對于更好地理解3D計算機圖形學也極有幫助。本書首先介紹了幾何轉換和坐標系統(tǒng)等較基礎的內(nèi)容，然后介紹曲線、渲染、效果等高級知識。本書基于作者自身在游戲產(chǎn)業(yè)中的工作、研究經(jīng)驗，提供了算法、編程技術、代碼等大量實用信息，對于游戲設計者及相應的編程人員來說，是一本非常有價值的參考書?！　”緯m合高等院校相關專業(yè)的師生、接受游戲軟件開發(fā)培訓的學生、相關技術人員及游戲開發(fā)人員閱讀。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　This chapter provides some basic concepts that occur in a computer graphics system. Some of these concepts are mathematical in nature. I am assuming that you are familiar with trigonometry， vector and matrix algebra， and dot products and cross products. A warning to those who have a significant mathematical background： I intentionally discuss the mathematical concepts in a somewhat informal manner. My goal is to present the relevant ideas without getting tied down in the minutiae of stating rigorous definitions for the concepts. The first edition of this book was criticized for overemphasizing the mathematical details——and rightly so. Learn computer graphics first， and then later explore the beauty of formal mathematical exposition！　　The foundations of coordinate systems （Section 2.1） and transformations （Section 2.2） are pervasive throughout a game engine. They are found not only in the graphics engines but in the physics engines and sound engines. Getting a model out of a modeling package and into the game world， setting up a camera for viewing， and displaying the model vertices and triangles is a process for which you must absolutely understand the coordinate systems and transformations. Scene graph management （Chapter 4） also requires a thorough understanding of these topics.　　Sections 2.3 through 2.6 are the foundation for drawing 3D objects on a 2D screen. In a programming environment using graphics APIs such as OpenGL or Direct3D to access the graphics hardware， your participation in the process is typically restricted to selecting the parameters of the camera， providing the triangle primitives whose vertices have been assigned various attributes， and identifying objects that are not within the viewing region so that you do not have to draw them. The low-level processing of vertices and triangles is the responsibility of the graphics drivers. A discussion of the low-level processing is provided in this book， and a software renderer is part of the source code so you can see an actual implementation of the ideas.　　……
