Welcome to Ray
What is Ray?
Ray is a smallish library for 3D graphics. I'm really not sure what is it going to be, because right now I'm just putting all those routines I occasionally use in a systematic form. Well, this is what the project isn't going to become:
- scene graph library (like OSG)
- open-source game rendering engine (like OGRE/Irrlicht/etc.)
- wrapper ontop of graphics API
- pure mesh simplification toolkit (like QSlim)
Ray is based on Tango, an alternative standard library for the D programming language.
Right now, Ray is only compatible with D1.0. Ray will probably won't support D2.0 until it gets out of alpha version.
Package overview
- base -- this is the base of all other packages, it contains code of math primitives: vectors, matrices, quaternion, euler angles, etc.
- bv -- bounding volumes: axis-aligned bounding box, sphere and symmetric frustum
- ds -- data structures: only index hash is provided right now
- window -- experimental windowing code
Getting the code
To get the code, just check-out the trunk of the repository, either using a Subversion client or by going to source:trunk and choosing the "Zip Archive" link at the bottom of the page.
Ray is built using Jake. Currently, it is only built/tested on Windows, using DMD1.15/Tango 0.99RC3
