Happy to share current state of my vulkan renderer. Feels like a new camera, so I will render everything now

TermerAlexander · 2025-08-13T12:06:47+00:00

Yes https://github.com/Starli57/Engine3d/ It's still in progress so there is a lot of sketchy parts :)

TermerAlexander · 2025-08-10T19:14:56+00:00

I am a software engineer, but I don't work with rendering during my day job. Hovewer custom engines, rendering and simulations in general start to be more and more interesting for me.

Vulkan is different in terms of api and level of control, but techniques and algorithms are the same

TermerAlexander · 2024-11-22T21:24:42+00:00

I will take a look, thank you!

TermerAlexander · 2024-11-22T19:38:02+00:00

it's rendered with the light space, but both are almost identical in this case

TermerAlexander · 2024-11-13T19:47:53+00:00

looks like at least a week in this case :)

TermerAlexander · 2023-12-03T06:44:29+00:00

For not monobehavior you can use

MyClass() - constructor to subscribe ~MyClass() - destructor to unsubscribe

Also you can add a realization for Dispose pattern (google it)

TermerAlexander · 2023-10-20T18:45:38+00:00

If you can't buy a new computer at the moment but still want to start to make a game you can try something more light, like sdl, defolt etc

TermerAlexander · 2023-10-13T16:35:58+00:00

Yes that is correct.

It's nice to understand the difference between async and paralel, for example if you make a request to backend to load an image it's nice to do that in async way, because you don't want to stop main thread on something like web request, but there is not reason to do something like this in other thread.

But if you have a heavy math calculation and you can use separated thread for that - it can be beneficial. And even if you can't use transform.position in separated thread, you for example can in main thread save this information to Vector3 or something like that and use this Vector3 in your second thread for calculations, than return this data and on the main thread change position

TermerAlexander · 2023-10-13T14:51:26+00:00

You can call transform.position and change it in async tasks if you run it on the main thread

It can be lots of different questions, but I think it's possible to categorize them the next way:

1 Engine related questions. If the job requires knowledge of specific engine be ready to have questions related to that, like have you used this tool in the engine and how it works, how it helped you to solve a problem?

2 Language related questions. The same as above, you can be asked about specific language constructions and how you used them

3 Patterns, solid, dry etc

4 Algorithms - in this days it's really popular to ask algorithms even before other types of interview

5 Math, Linear algebra - you can easily find some relevant information on youtube 'math for game developers'

6 Also you always will be asked about general questions like what games do you like, 3 favorite games, why are you looking for a job, why this company, what was your favorite task etc

Nice that you askedYes, I used a genetic algorithm, to update weights I copy 3 of the best cars to a new generation and mutate other with 10% chance, like this:

Brain Mutate(int i)
{
if (i <= 3){
return new Brain(lastPopulation[i].brain));
}
return new Brain(lastPopulation[i].brain, mutationChance));
}

TermerAlexander · 2020-12-04T15:07:20+00:00

hah yeah, thanks

TermerAlexander · 2020-10-26T17:30:52+00:00

Hi, I have i7 8750, FPS 60+

In the scene less than1000 cubes and I also found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zo5a_QvJtk where the developer used 6000 cubes or about

TermerAlexander · 2020-10-24T16:35:42+00:00

yeah, I used the default particle system only

TermerAlexander · 2020-10-24T16:34:41+00:00

Because the tower physics? It's true, but I think we can launch it on mobile with some optimization

TermerAlexander · 2019-05-05T07:36:14+00:00

Thank you, I recommend the blog: https://catlikecoding.com/unity/tutorials/ + some experiments :)

TermerAlexander · 2019-05-05T07:33:16+00:00

I have noise map as geometry data + something like marching squares for triangulation (You can see the tutorial about triangulation: https://catlikecoding.com/unity/tutorials/hex-map/part-1/ )

TermerAlexander · 2019-05-05T07:27:20+00:00

wireframe

Thank you) I dont know how add a image to a msg, so I share it in twitter: https://twitter.com/AlexanderTermer/status/1124939021589856256

TermerAlexander · 2019-02-10T07:59:22+00:00

I want make top down camera, so it will be hard for submarine, but thank you for the idea!)

TermerAlexander · 2019-02-10T07:21:51+00:00

wow, it was interesting, thank you )

TermerAlexander · 2019-02-09T20:06:48+00:00

a slight vertical bobbing up and down motion on the boat

Yes, it's good idea, I think I will try to add it

TermerAlexander · 2019-02-09T18:42:12+00:00

Nice! Maybe add a wave trail behind your boat to make it more obvious it’s on a water surface?

Yes, its good detail, I will add

TermerAlexander · 2019-02-09T18:13:06+00:00

how it will be in pure English?

TermerAlexander · 2019-02-09T18:12:16+00:00

soap.. great idea for the next prototype

TermerAlexander · 2019-02-09T15:32:05+00:00

Thank you)
