First C# Framework Screenshot

[L B]

Just got done implementing Framework into C#. I run this scene at 60 FPS, which is the top I can seem to get in editor or in C#. So performance wise, it's quite good.

 

I'll let you judge for the simplicity:

public static void Main()
{
FileSystem.AbstractPath = @"C:\Program Files\Leadwerks Engine SDK";

Graphics.Initialize(800, 600);

Framework.Initialize();

Scene.Load("abstract::test.sbx");

FreeCamera fc = new FreeCamera(Framework.Layers.Main.Camera); // Custom class

Framework.Effects.Water = true;
Framework.Effects.Parameters.Water.Height = 2.0f;
Framework.Effects.DistanceFog = true;
Framework.Effects.Bloom = true;
Framework.Effects.VolumetricLighting = true;
Framework.Effects.HighDynamicRange = true;
Framework.Effects.Skybox = Material.Load("abstract::FullskiesBlueClear0016_2_L.mat");

while (!Keyboard.KeyHit(Key.Escape))
{
	fc.Update();
	Framework.Update();
	Framework.Render();
	Graphics.Flip();
}

Framework.Terminate();
Engine.Terminate();
}

Excellent, looks very clean So is Framewerk fully wrapped now?

[L B]

Completely. See this thread for download.

That looks clean. The only thing that seems backwards is:

 

Framework.Effects.Water = true;

Framework.Effects.Parameters.Water.Height = 2.0f;

 

I'd think it would be:

 

Framework.Effects.Water.Enabled = true;

Framework.Effects.Water.Parameters.Height = 2.0f;

 

 

That seems more logical to me.

 

 

Or really you wouldn't even need Parameters just Water.Height. That's the more .NET way of things

I chose this method because we seldom access parameters and some effects don't even have any, but I'll consider your approach.

[Rick]

Either way, no biggie. By having the .Enabled and such as opposed to just making the effect name true/false it opens up for future expansion of new effects that have parameters or old effects to get parameters at some point and could save you time & consistency issues later. That's all I was thinking. Otherwise I like it.

Well done Ubu, look's like you got it working nicely, nice screenshot.

 

Hey, i'm trying to use that code in vb.net, but i can't find the FreeCamera in this line.

 

FreeCamera fc = new FreeCamera(Framework.Layers.Main.Camera); // Custom class

 

In vb.net it look's like this

 

Dim fc As New FreeCamera(Framework.Layers.Main.Camera)

 

It say's type FreeCamera is not defined.

 

Any idea what i'm doing wrong ?

 

Thank's.

[ZeroByte]

Ok, i missed the comment "//custom class" duh.

 

How did you define the FreeCamera, in you custom class?

 

Thank's

FreeCamera is basically a spectator, only faster to make for me. Here's the code, but I don't guarantee it's clean or efficient. It's just for my personal development use that I made it:

using Leadwerks;

namespace Origins
{
public class FreeCamera
{
	public Camera Camera { get; set; }
	public float SpeedMultiplier { get; set; }
	private Vector3 CameraRotation { get; set; }
	private Vector2 MouseDelta { get; set; }
	private float Move { get; set; }
	private float Strafe { get; set; }

	public FreeCamera(Camera camera)
	{
		this.Camera = camera;
		this.SpeedMultiplier = 10.0f;
		this.CameraRotation = new Vector3();
		this.MouseDelta = new Vector2();
		this.Move = 0.0f;
		this.Strafe = 0.0f;

		Mouse.Center();
		Mouse.Hide();
	}

	public void Update()
	{
		this.MouseDelta.X = Utilities.Curve(Mouse.X - Window.Width / 2, this.MouseDelta.X, 6);
		this.MouseDelta.Y = Utilities.Curve(Mouse.Y - Window.Height / 2, this.MouseDelta.Y, 6);
		Mouse.Center();
		this.CameraRotation.X += this.MouseDelta.Y / 10;
		this.CameraRotation.Y -= this.MouseDelta.X / 10;
		this.Camera.Rotation = this.CameraRotation;
		this.Move = Utilities.Curve(((Keyboard.KeyDown(Key.W) ? 1 : 0) - (Keyboard.KeyDown(Key.S) ? 1 : 0)) * this.SpeedMultiplier, this.Move, 20);
		this.Strafe = Utilities.Curve(((Keyboard.KeyDown(Key.D) ? 1 : 0) - (Keyboard.KeyDown(Key.A) ? 1 : 0)) * this.SpeedMultiplier, this.Strafe, 20);
		this.Camera.Move(new Vector3(this.Strafe / 10 * Timing.Speed, 0, this.Move / 10 * Timing.Speed));
	}
}
}

I changed the structure to your second suggestion.

 

Here's an example from the "Scene.Load(string path);" I'm working on:

Framework.Effects.DistanceFog.Enabled = Convert.ToBoolean(int.Parse(child.GetKey("fogmode")));
Framework.Effects.DistanceFog.Color = Vector4.Parse(child.GetKey("fogcolor"));
Framework.Effects.DistanceFog.SetAngles(float.Parse(child.GetKey("fogangle").Split(',')[0]), float.Parse(child.GetKey("fogangle").Split(',')[1]));
Framework.Effects.DistanceFog.SetRanges(float.Parse(child.GetKey("fogrange").Split(',')[0]), float.Parse(child.GetKey("fogrange").Split(',')[1]));

Thank's for sharing that code Ubu, it's working nice now.

 

If anyone want's the vb.net version, i'll post the code.

Looks clean and crisp. I like it. I really hope this C# version sticks around and has all the functionality of the other versions because I prefer working in .NET.

It should. At version 1.3 I'll try to talk with Josh about getting it official.

WOW!

amazing atmosphere!
