C++: How OpenGL works: software rendering in 500 lines of code
Project mention: Filament – A Language for Fearless Hardware Design | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-04Also: Filament is a real-time physically-based renderer written in C++. It is mobile-first, but also multi-platform.
https://google.github.io/filament/
This is a great series if you’re looking for a tutorial. https://lettier.github.io/3d-game-shaders-for-beginners/inde...
Project mention: WebKit Switching to Skia for 2D Graphics Rendering | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-20
OpenRCT2 - Roller Coster Tycoon 2 clone. C++, SDL2, OpenGL
Project mention: Does anyone else agree that the links to the latest development version of Open3D don't work? | /r/cscareerquestions | 2023-07-10I was going to file a bug about another issue, but I have to download the development version. This is why I want this solved quickly. None of the links seem to work: https://github.com/isl-org/Open3D/issues/6259
Not exactly VJ, but could be used for it. https://openframeworks.cc
Take a look at SFML. Very easy to get started, and quite capable.

Project mention: Building the DirectX shader compiler better than Microsoft? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-10
We need more detail. What OS you are using what olive version (exactly up to commit number). You should make an issue heere: https://github.com/olive-editor/olive/issues
Project mention: Show HN: Atopile – Design circuit boards with code | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-05
Project mention: Risking my life for an entire solar system of lentils | /r/Frugal_Jerk | 2023-12-11
Panda3D (MIT/C++) https://github.com/panda3d/panda3d
Project mention: Confused in terms of where to start with framework/technology etc. Need help picking between learning ShaderToy v/s OpenGL v/s WebGL | /r/GraphicsProgramming | 2023-06-20If you specifically want to learn shader programming then https://shadered.org/ is a lot more practical than Shadertoy.
Project mention: Jagged edges on everything, regardless of AA settings | /r/EliteDangerous | 2023-12-11If you are interested in making it look even better, then installing ReShade and adding FSAA there also makes a huge improvement over the best settings in game.
OGRE (MIT/C++) https://github.com/OGRECave/ogre
Project mention: Zero-k: A libre sci-fi RTS game, with an economy based on metal and energy | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-19Seems the support would be a realistic feature, though, because it's based on https://springrts.com/ that does support MacOS X.
Project mention: Apitrace – trace and replay OpenGL, Direct3D, and DirectDraw APIs calls | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-04
SuperTux - Platformer inspired by Mario Brothers. C++, SDL2
