General Information
| |
Research and creation of next generation Realtime 3D Libraries for Geometry/Plants, Visibility and Global Illumination is the agenda of the EU GameTools Project. The GTP brings together leading computer graphics experts from Austria, France, Hungary and Spain with European industrial partners from the fields of computer game development and virtual reality. The C++/DirectX 9 libraries are being created for the OGRE 3D engine, with videogame console support (Xbox, PS2, Xbox 360, PS3) through the commercial Shark3D middleware engine.
Additional indurtrial partners can get preliminary access to the techology by becoming members of the GTP Special Interest Group.
