description

a wireframe 3d renderer

subject³ project repository

bonus

we have implemented :

• zooming
• camera controls
  • position
  • rotation
• toggling betwen static and dynamic projections
  • isometric (static)
  • perspective (dynamic)

as camera rotation is currently locked to the vertical axis, we are unable to generalise isometric projection to a subset of angles in perspective.

instructions

usage

key	action	description
p	switch rendering modes	toggle between perspective and isometric
w	move forwards	+z
s	move backwards	-z
d	move rightwards	+x
a	move leftwards	-x
Space	move upwards	+y
Shift	move downwards	-y
q	rotate clockwards	+x
e	rotate anticlockwards	-x
Right	rotate rightwards	+y
Left	rotate leftwards	-y
Up	rotate upwards	+z
Down	rotate downwards	-z
Scroll Up	zoom in	increments the final focal length
Scroll Down	zoom out	decrements the final focal length

compilation

for a limited, static perspective only :

make

to unlock camera rotation :

helping me realise i was passing the wrong pointer to mlx_key_hook as mlx_hook takes the connection identifier of the whole program, whereas the former acts on a per window basis and therefore requires a different pointer, that of the relevant window...

you're supposed to call destructors as it turns out -and free the mlx pointer ;p
