Installation and starting demos

[Protoxy22]

Hi, this is an amazing work.

How can I setup the project and start the demos ? I see there is kjEngine Audio module missing, and files not up to date

Thanks

I pushed a fix for the module situation. As you can see, I stopped working on this 3 years ago and the Vulkan code is not conformant to the API specification. Last time I tested, it worked on Nvidia. AMD will likely hang. Run my code at your own risk. :P

Thank you, I really wish I could find more informations about the engine capabilities, features and such

The screenshot tease a lot, it would be very cool if you have more content to show !
I also have 2 questions:

• I see 18 FPS on the screenshot, do you think there is a performance issue on the project (3 years ago) or it's just your CPU/Graphic Card ?
• If you remember, what are the features of the terrain ? I see there is a heightmap loader with tiled terrain, but does it support splat map textures ? or the terrain texture is generated procedurally ?

Thank you a lot for your attention

It's my graphics card. The short description under the screen shot should explain things. (The GTX 940MX is a laptop GPU) Overall,

If you remember, what are the features of the terrain ? I see there is a heightmap loader with tiled terrain, but does it support splat map textures ? or the terrain texture is generated procedurally ?

IIRC, the terrain takes a texture as a height map (which can be procedually generated of course) and also supports materials with displacement maps. It's not part of the engine, it's part of an abandoned project, but it uses the standard deferred PBR pipeline.

Maybe I will revisit this project when I'm in the mood and fix the Vulkan backend 🤷

It seems there are lot of outdated files, the overall project can't build.
Do you have updated files of the project, so I can build it and try to fix the Vulkan backend
Thank you
