README
Mehteor
=======
A multiplatform C++ OpenGL 2/3 Game engine.
Current features :
* accelerated 2d scenes (texturing, cameras, sprites, animated sprite),
* accelerated font rendering (ATM through image atlases),
* sound with OpenAL,
* many utility classes (vectors, matrices, quaternions, rects, byte buffers, ...),
* keyboard/mouse input,
* threading support.
Roadmap
=======
The goal of the final 1.0 is to have a 2D game engine capable of rendering many animated sprites, with text, sounds and keyboard/mouse inputs.
This goal is nearly reached as I finish / optimize some of these tasks, but there all currently working.
### 1.0-RC2
```
- the mouse click is sometimes ignored (IMO the input system must be redone)
- semaphores, thread helpers (synchronized methods ?)
```
### 1.0-RC3
```
- improve 2d rendering performances
- sprite flipX/flipY, rotation and scale
- helper in sprites to increase/decrease opacity, to read a tint from vector4d, ...
- maybe less inline methods ?
```
### 1.0
```
- use meh::Thread instead of SDL_Thread in `audio/audiosystem`
- `bytebuffer.cpp` : more functions read/write
- target for unit tests + unit tests!
```
### Next
```
- create font atlas with SDL_ttf 2.0
- gamepads support
```
Build (Linux and Mac)
=======
- Needed dependencies : SDL, OpenGL, OpenAL, libvorbis, libogg and CMake
- Download mehteor : git clone https://github.com/remeh/mehteor
- cd mehteor
- mkdir build && cd build
- cmake ../ && make
A toolchain to build for Windows is in the cmake/ directory, but was only tested from Linux (cross-compiling).
