OmegaEngine is a general-purpose 3D graphics for .NET Framework and DirectX 9. The engine is designed to be light-weight, modular and gameplay-agnostic. It is designed to be:
- light-weight (compiled binaries with external libraries < 4MB),
- modular (use only the parts you need for your project) and
- gameplay-agnostic (also suitable for visualization projects, etc.).
The complementary OmegaGUI, AlphaFramework and AlphaEditor help you build games using OmegaEngine.
Prerequisites
You must install these components before you can use OmegaEngine:
First steps
Create a WinForms project targetting .NET Framework 4.7.2 or newer with the platform set to x86.
Add a reference to the NuGet package OmegaEngine. Then add the following code to render a textured sphere:
var engine = new Engine(this, new EngineConfig { TargetSize = ClientSize });
var scene = new Scene
{
Positionables = { Model.Sphere(engine, XTexture.Get(engine, "flag.png")) }
};
var view = new View(scene, new TrackCamera()) { BackgroundColor = Color.CornflowerBlue };
engine.Views.Add(view);
Paint += delegate { engine.Render(); };
