DGLE2 is a powerful cross platform engine for 2D/3D games and real-time visualizations. Young, strong and crazy!
The goal of the project is to provide developers with flexible & extandable cross platform easy-to-learn professional technology, capable of building any 2D/3D games, real-time visualizations, scientific applications etc. It should be easy to make great projects only by using editors and scripts or go deeper and use your programming skills of your favorite language to create really exciting projects. Users can also add new formats and functionality by creating new plugins for engine and share them with others over the web or just get plugins already made by others. When project is complete it can be easily build for every popular platform.
See gallery for screenshots of projects based on this engine.
Visit official website for more details on this project and also plugins, articles, tutorials, samples and forum.
- Full cross platform.
- Plugin based architecture with micro-core principles.
- Flexible and highly extensible via plugins.
- Multi render support: OpenGL (1.x-2.x and 4.x), OpenGL ES (1.1, 2.0 and 3.0), Direct3D (9.0c and 11.1).
- Have set of visual editors for rapid application development.
- Provides all necessary API for development high quality 2D and 3D real-time applications.
- Flexible abstraction levels allow you to programming without any restrictions from API.
- Made by GameDev professionals for you with LoVe!
- Windows (XP and later)
- Linux (almost any distributive)
- MacOS (10.6 and later)
- iOS (4.3 and later)
- Android (2.3 and later)
- C++
- C#
- Delphi
- Free Pascal
- Lua (for scripting purpose only)
Simple C++ "HelloWorld" application for Windows. This code will setup engine, create window and render "Hello, World!" text on screen via default font. You can copy-paste this code to your 'main.cpp' and you are done! Also don't forget to copy engine headers (you can find them in "include/cpp" folder) and library 'DGLE2.dll' (you can find it in "bin/win" folder) in suitable locations to be found by compiler and executable.
#include "DGLE2.h"
using namespace DGLE2;

IEngineCore *pEngineCore = NULL;
IBitmapFont *pFont = NULL;
IRender2D *pRender2D = NULL;
void DGLE2_API Init(void *pParametr)

pEngineCore->GetSubSystem(ESS_RESOURCE_MANAGER, (IEngineSubSystem *&)resMan);

resMan->GetDefaultResource(EOT_BITMAP_FONT, (IEngBaseObj *&)pFont);
}
void DGLE2_API Render(void *pParametr)

pEngineCore->AddProcedure(EPT_INIT, &Init);
pEngineCore->AddProcedure(EPT_RENDER, &Render);
pEngineCore->StartEngine();

}
