Top 23 C++ Engine Projects
-
I'm not sure if links/tutorials being recommended are really out of date or if I am just not understanding things but I've had trouble. For instance, the https://github.com/ssloy/tinyrenderer/ tutorial, I must be missing something because I don't understand what the frick I'm supposed to do with a .tga the code makes. I learned things in DirectX11. Should I simply just go straight back to that you think?? Or should I go back to making my own rasterizer/renderer...?

bgfx
Cross-platform, graphics API agnostic, "Bring Your Own Engine/Framework" style rendering library.
Project mention: BGFX DirectX11 "Failed to create vertex shader" over Windows 10x64, but works fine under Win7x86 with d3d9. | reddit.com/r/GraphicsProgramming | 2021-11-22You'll probably have more luck here: https://github.com/bkaradzic/bgfx/discussions

xray-16
Improved version of the X-Ray Engine, the game engine used in the world-famous S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game series by GSC Game World. Join OpenXRay! ;)
Project mention: If software (OpenXRay-engine in this case) has a BSD-style license, does that automatically mean I can make derivative works (eg a new game, unrelated to S.T.A.L.K.E.R.) and sell them? | reddit.com/r/foss | 2021-11-28 -
Project mention: Do you think the Rust is production ready for GUI in 2021? | reddit.com/r/rust | 2021-08-04
Please try out Sciter with its Rust binding, I use it in my Rust project.

Scout APM
Scout APM: A developer's best friend. Try free for 14-days. Scout APM uses tracing logic that ties bottlenecks to source code so you know the exact line of code causing performance issues and can get back to building a great product faster.

Project mention: DirectX 11/12 Graphics Engine (WIP) | reddit.com/r/GraphicsProgramming | 2021-05-13
I've uploaded my graphics engine written in DirectX 11 on Github. Here is the link. I've tried to make implementations of all the features as straightforward as possible so they are all inside renderer in corresponding void Pass*() member function. This was inspired by approach seen in https://github.com/PanosK92/SpartanEngine. Hope it helps someone.

Project mention: Open source re-implementation projects and game clones. | reddit.com/r/FoamList | 2021-08-28
GemRB - Infinity Engine games (Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment, Icewind Dale etc)
-

openmw-tes3mp
Multiplayer for OpenMW, a reimplementation of The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind's engine.
https://github.com/TES3MP/openmw-tes3mp/wiki/Quickstart-guide here you go
-
Project mention: Procedural Plate Tectonics using Clustered Convection [Article + Source] | reddit.com/r/Simulated | 2021-04-09
The visualization of the dynamic data was made using my own TinyEngine.
-
If you'd like to learn to code (and I totally understand if that seems daunting or you just don't) there are some options short of coding it all yourself - for one, there are other, possibly more flexible engines. One I considered for a bit before rolling my own was https://github.com/Zal0/ZGB - he has several games with source available to help people get started.
-
Project mention: Every STALKER mod I've played need mods/tweaks to be enjoyable. | reddit.com/r/stalker | 2021-02-17
You can always try the OGSR engine and see if that works with for example Shadow of Chernobyl.
-
Alternatively, you can create a view per mip and use a compute shader to compute the whole cube at once. This is what I have been doing

Aether3D Game Engine (Linux/Windows/mac/iOS, Vulkan/D3D12/Metal)
https://github.com/bioglaze/aether3d
Some people like making games, I like making game engines. I don't have a specific goal/target in mind while making it. I've written several game engines since the nineties, and this is my most recent version.
I have abandoned many of my older engines at some point to develop a new one, but with this engine I'll try to keep developing it a lot further before making a new engine.
-
I myself was inspired by that and we had our own implementation of it in DirectX 11 in our game engine hobby project. See Rootex' RenderingDevice

Project mention: hey i am planning to do doom on arduino but my file is not supported, if anyone here knows anything about an arduino compatible doom file please let me know | reddit.com/r/itrunsdoom | 2021-10-26
look what Google found

Project mention: Is there an open source version of Red Alert 2 engine with campaigns support? | reddit.com/r/opensourcegames | 2021-07-21
Maybe you could try https://github.com/Phobos-developers/Phobos ? Not very familiar with the project myself, but will alert people who might know.

You can use the in engine animation and skeletal system. Or software like Creature 2D to build animations. They have a module you can build into Godot to use real time animations.
