### About
|
|
|
|
The goal of this project is to provide tools for mod developers so they no longer have to worry about performance, or
|
|
limitations of Minecraft's archaic rendering engine. That said, this is primarily an outlet for me to have fun with
|
|
graphics programming.
|
|
|
|
### Instancing
|
|
|
|
Flywheel provides an alternate, unified path for entity and tile entity rendering that takes advantage of GPU
|
|
instancing. In doing so, Flywheel gives the developer the flexibility to define their own vertex and instance formats,
|
|
and write custom shaders to ingest that data.
|
|
|
|
### Shaders
|
|
|
|
To accomodate the developer and leave more in the hands of the engine, Flywheel provides a custom shader loading and
|
|
templating system to hide the details of the CPU/GPU interface. This system is a work in progress. There will be
|
|
breaking changes, and I make no guarantees of backwards compatibility.
|
|
|
|
### Plans
|
|
|
|
- Vanilla performance improvements
|
|
- Compute shader particles
|
|
- Deferred rendering
|
|
- Different renderers for differently aged hardware
|
|
|
|
### Getting Started (For Developers)
|
|
|
|
Add the following repo to your `build.gradle`:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
repositories {
|
|
maven {
|
|
name "tterrag maven"
|
|
url "https://maven.tterrag.com/"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then add Flywheel as a dependency:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
dependencies {
|
|
implementation fg.deobf("com.jozufozu.flywheel:Flywheel:1.16-0.0.2.9")
|
|
}
|
|
```
