C++: How OpenGL works: software rendering in 500 lines of code

I don’t think that exists (I sure would like for it to), but until it does you could amuse yourself with:

- A 500-line (non-OpenGL-compatible) 3D rasterizer: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki.

- A “hello Wayland” app written in C without libwayland or anything else: https://gaultier.github.io/blog/wayland_from_scratch.html.

- A “hello X11” app written in x86-64 assembly(!) without libX11, libxcb, or anything else: https://gaultier.github.io/blog/x11_x64.html.

the tinyrenderer[1] project has been on my todos forever now. glad to see the author is writing more self-paced programming projects.

- Game development - Unity3D project based learning in C#: https://learn.unity.com/ - Graphics - There was another user on r/GraphicsProgramming the other day (who teaches Computer Graphics at his university) that linked their lecture series for the entry year of their course here: https://tamats.com/learn/realtime-graphics/ - Project based learning: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki - Rendering API tutorials: https://vulkan-tutorial.com/, https://learnopengl.com/

There are a couple of excellent resources out there for implementing 3D rendering from scratch.

On that I cannot recommend enough is this github repo:

If you are more of a visual learner, this guy is also a treasure trove:

Other people have mentioned ray-tracing in one weekend

If anyone is really interested in graphics I would also recommend TinyRenderer

https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki

This one is a CPU-based rasterizing renderer

Its good if you want to get a good understanding of what a GPU does underneath

I was in a similar position to you, and I first did this https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/wiki

Yes, my thoughts exactly, shader!=program on GPU. It's just a code which calculates pixel color or pixel position. See for example this: https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/blob/master/main.cpp. It's not GLSL or anything uploadable to GPU yet it's still a shader.

In terms of a project which would be worthwhile, I think building a software rasterizer from scratch is a useful first step. TinyRenderer is a great place to start. Looking at the high level overview of many graphics subjects, ScratchAPixel is a valuable resource. Theres also just great information in some of the rote graphics programming textbooks (Michael Abrash's Black Book fully available online from Jason Gregory, and this book is really interesting). The "RayTracer in a weekend" series is also (seemingly) very illuminating (no pun intended).

How exactly are you exporting the files and are you following this: https://github.com/ousnius/BodySlide-and-Outfit-Studio/wiki/Packing-projects-for-sharing

Then follow this guide.

Handy guide for installing bodyslide. The most important thing being that you download bodyslide and install it through Mod Organizer 2, then you run it through Mod Organizer 2.

I'm specifically interested in the Park Survivor outfit but getting bodyslide for any of them would be awesome. Alternatively, if anyone has a noob friendly guide on how to do this I could attempt it myself. I tried using This guide but I couldn't get any sliders to appear so I gave up.

Copy bone weights

I just recently learned how to use conversion references for converting outfits in Outfit Studio thanks to the guide on github. But some armor pieces still don't fit well on the CBBE body and I was wondering if the process is the same or different.
