YwSoftRenderer

Implementing a Soft Renderer for Learning CG.

About

Mostly coming from Muli3D, improved by my understanding. It is still a long and hard trip, but worthwhile.

Build

Premake5 is used to build the project, so you need to download a Premake5 execuatable file and put it into the project root directory.

Next, open a command window and type the generating command, e.g.

premake5 vs2017

or

premake5 vs2015

(Currently only support Windows platform, other platforms like OSX and Linux is still on the schedule.)

After executing the command "premake5 vs2017", you can find the Visual Studio solution files at "$(ProjectRoot)/Workspace/vs2017/YwSoftRenderer.sln", open it with Visual Studio and build the solution, all demo executable files are located at "$(ProjectRoot)/Binaries/".

Examples

Demo 1: Triangle

Demo 2: Model

Demo 3: Blinn Phong

Demo 4: Normal Mapping

Demo 5: Triangle Shader Wireframe

Demo 6: PBR (Unity BRDF 1: Desney Diffuse + Torrance-Sparrow Specular (D=GGX,F=Schlick,V=Smith), IBL is wroking on.)

Demo 7: IBL (With full steps of dynamic generating precomputed data.)
