As we all know, 3D rendering pipeline is an huge project, and it includes so many parts. And here I implemented an 3D software rendering toy. This project was inspired by [1]. Lots of documents were used like [2] [3] [4] and so on. I coded it in 5 days. All of things I had done and will do is shown in the list

• Done

  • Basic environment: including the mathematics lib(especially vector and matrix), display functions and the like. (in the branch s1)
  • 3D transformation: the world, view, project transform maxtrix. (in the branch s1)
  • Draw basic line: the traditional method and Bresenham method. (in the branch s2)
  • Load *.obj, draw triangle and z-buff test (in the branch s3)
  • Muli-thread support with C++11 (in the branch s4)
  • Flat shading (in the branch s5)
  • Gouraud shading and back-face culling (in the branch s6)

• TODO

  • Anti-Aliased
  • Texture
  • ray tracing
