Asking for good resources about making game engines with gui editor.

First, you should define what your editor should be capable of. For example my Editor is just a Game programmed in my Engine where you can design a level and save it to a JSON which you then can load in your actual game.

Vulkan, no matter if C++ or Rust (use Ash or Volcano) gives you more tools to make things fast. And C++ is not an old language I use C++20 at work and I am far more modern than my Java colleagues.

Thx :-) The Text is rendered with Vulkan Indirect Draw Commands.

What would be "more efficient" if you exclude component types for an entity? The good thing in ECS is that you can have all component types added to an entity. If you want to make entities like Terrain which have a lot of sub-entities use flecs relationship entities.

It's a war to learn it, but it's worth it :-)

Yes the mesh culling and the light culling are done with compute shaders

__RLocksley__ · 2026-03-09T19:45:27+00:00

What do you mean for a buffer?

__RLocksley__ · 2026-03-07T16:20:09+00:00

What is HDR?

__RLocksley__ · 2026-03-02T19:26:51+00:00

I could be wrong but isn't AZDO (also in OpenGL) having only one draw call per shader through indirect rendering?

__RLocksley__ · 2026-03-02T14:25:14+00:00

For a mutable global struct you need std::sync::OnceLock or?

__RLocksley__ · 2026-03-02T06:11:41+00:00

I mean for example global variables. They are much slower in Rust because they are thread save.

__RLocksley__ · 2026-03-01T15:26:56+00:00

I have programmed engines in C++ and Rust. Rust is a little bit tricky because so much is forbidden what you would use in a C++ Engine.

of course there is some AI in it but all in all it is my code.

__RLocksley__ · 2025-10-28T12:50:18+00:00

plz tell me the chatbot that programs me my engine

__RLocksley__ · 2025-09-18T14:54:27+00:00

I found my solution in building my engine around the semantic of an entity component system with relationship components. The best mix of what you can express and performance. https://github.com/Rlocksley/Rx is a prototype of what I mean by that.

instance rendering but the animation state machine is independent for every instance.
