School project implementing various 3D techniques in OpenGL (C++11).
The mandatory techniques are perspective rendering, lighting, textures, three-dimensional objects and first-person camera movement.
Apart from these, we are also aiming to implement the following techniques (implemented|mandatory|available):
- Deferred rendering and lighting.
- Parsing and rendering of an existing model format.
- Height-map terrain rendering, user can walk on the terrain.
- Morph based vertex animation.
- Normal mapping.
- Blend-mapping.
- Shadow mapping.
- View frustum culling against a quadtree.
- Back-face culling using geometry shader.
- Particle system with billboarded particles.
- Picking.
- Make a small game out of it.

The resources (textures, models, etc.) for this project are available separately and under a separate license (all rights reserved). You can download them here. Extract them to Game/Resources.
Since this is a school project, our intention is to implement all of this ourselves. This means we won't accept pull requests from other people. You can naturally still fork the project and develop your own version if you want to.
Class names are in PascalCase, methods and variables in camelCase. Classes should be implemented in their own header-files with accompanying .cpp-files. These files should have the same filename as the name of the class (with the same capitalization). Source files implementing other functionality should be named in camelCase.
'using namespace' in a header file is strictly forbidden; it's acceptable in .cpp-files.
GLSL shaders should be stored in shaderName_type.glsl files in Resources, where shaderName is the name of the shader (eg. "default") and type is the type of shader (eg. "fragment", "geometry" or "vertex"). Example: "default_vertex.glsl".
Use issue tracker to assign issues to person responsible for fixing them so multiple people don't work on the same thing.
