# GhurundEngine
My DirectX 12 playground.

##### Engine

It's written in C++ and HLSL. Uses DirectX 12, PhysX, AngelScript and WinAPI. It's a fourth iteration after one OpenGL engine, one DX9 and one DX11. I have a lot of ideas I would like to code, like support for resource hot reloading, automatic shader parameters, custom UI or keyframe animation system. I'm using a ton of VS features, so you won't be able to compile it with GCC.

##### Game

Not really a game right now. More like an app for checking if the engine is fine.

### Compilation

To build your own version you need the following tools.

- [Visual Studio 2019](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/preview/)
 - [DirectX 12](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/direct3d12/directx-12-programming-environment-set-up)
 - [PhysX](https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/PhysX)
 - [TinyXML-2](http://www.grinninglizard.com/tinyxml2)
 - [CRC](https://github.com/d-bahr/CRCpp)

This project was never intended to be portable, so it can be only build using Visual Studio and run on Windows 10 with DirectX 12 - compatible graphics card.
