So you want to make computer games? Or perhaps you want to produce alternative media products and digital art? If you do, then this could very well be the book for you. That's right; this book is about a technology designed to create first-rate multimedia products, from games to other interactive media. It's called Direct3D, and it's part of the DirectX suite of APIs distributed freely by Microsoft.
DirectX is one of the slickest, fastest, and most powerful technologies in town. Using DirectX you can produce computer games and multimedia products of the highest caliber, making use of the latest features of today's hardware. Simply put, using DirectX you can make stunning computer games. The possibilities are, in case you hadn't guessed, endless.
Interested? I hope so. Before we get started, however, let me tell you some things about this book, such as its intended audience, what you may ideally need to know, and how to obtain the companion files.
- Visualising with VTK. A tutorial Schroeder W.J.
In this tutorial we introduce basic concepts behind the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) An overview of the system, plus some detailed examples, will assist you in learning this system The tutorial targets researchers of any discipline who have 2D or 3D data and want more control over the visualization process than a turn-key system can provide - Verilog for behavioral modeling Tzartzanis N.
- Structures procedures for sequential or concurrent execution; - Explicit control of the time of procedure activation specified by both delay expressions and by value changes called event expressions; - Explicitly named events to trigger the enabling and disabling of actions in their procedures; - Procedural constructs for conditional, if-else, case, and looping operations; - Arithmetic, logical, bit-wise, and reduction operators for expressions; - Procedures called tasks that can have parameters and non-zero time durations (not covered in today's lecture); - Procedures called functions that allow the definition of new operators (not covered in today's lecture) - The human interface. New directions for designing interactive systems Raskin J.
