    raylib

    raylib

    A simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming

    raylib is highly inspired by Borland BGI graphics lib and by XNA framework. Do you want to see all functions available in raylib? Check raylib cheatsheet. raylib is a programming library to enjoy videogames programming; no fancy interface, no visual helpers, no auto-debugging, just coding in the most pure spartan-programmers way. raylib has received several recognitions in the last years and many people have written about the library. Here there are the main awards received from Google and Epic Games. raylib supports multiple target platforms, it has been tested in the following platforms but, technically, any platform that supports C language and OpenGL graphics is valid for raylib or can be very easily ported to. raylib can be combined with several extra libraries for additional functionality, some of those libraries are already used internally while others are provided for user integration, most of these libraries are single-file header-only with no external dependencies.

    Dungeon Craft

    Updated emulator of Forgotten Realms: Unlimited Adventures

    Up to date code, including latest engine and editor releases: https://github.com/grannypron/uaf Dungeon Craft Community Forums: https://forums.goldbox.games/index.php#c8 Dungeon Craft is an adventure creator that emulates the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Gold Box RPG's released by SSI. Initially designed to be a "more unlimited" version of the Forgotten Realms: Unlimited Adventures (FRUA) game editor and engine, it has far surpassed the capabilities of the old FRUA system. The editor is used to configure art, items, monsters, spells, special abilities, classes and races.. Each adventure is self-contained and doesn't require the editor to be played. The editor is extremely versatile and the databases are completely designer created allowing easy additions and modifications to spells, monsters, items, classes, races and special abilities, and are exportable to be easily shared with others or used in other designs.

    tStudio3D
    tStudio3D is published here on SourceForge.net as part of an effort to curate it as an old-school game development platform -- as a museum artifact. This curation work is being done so that young enthusiasts can explore a sampling of the early tools in 3D game development from the late 1990s and early 2000s. In support of this curation effort, tStudio3D has been freshly rebuilt to run on Windows 11 using Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 (as of April 2023). No future development is planned. tStudio3D is a set of realtime 3D applications based on a custom implementation of the Genesis3D game engine. Use tDesigner3D to create BSP maps. Organize scenes live with tDirector3D. Distribute and run tDirector3D scenes with tDeployer3D.

    AP3/3SUM

    Multimedia asset management and manipulator for Étoilé

    3SUM aims to provide a powerful 2 to 3D programmable environment that allow editing several kind of contents and linking the relationships among Objective-C type. 3SUM sits on the top of AP3 framework which consit of 3D screen graph Objective-C API, C++ geometry math classes, basic mesh implementations, raster compositor and thread managements. AP3 also have a few foundation classes for data manipulation purpose, such as AAObject root which allows tagging object with selector-keyed arbitrarily typed bytes, or AAChunk, an equal-entry array which allows managing two or more binary streams as a single multi-field stream, or striding one stream into some, and some other partitioning abstractions. AP3 also provides a GUI system for NSOperation management, to provide the concurrency as much as everywhere-possible.

    Arduino open source X-PID motor control

    Arduino open source X-PID motor control

    Arduino open source PID motor control

    This low cost project is a RC servo like position control of one or two geared motor(s) with a pot as angle feedback. You can send the arduino microcontroller a value from 0 to 1023 and the arduino will control the motor speed and direction to reach your target value. The PID algorithm will insure that the motor will not get into hold vibrations if the pot has some influences. This article will describe where you have to take attentions and what you have to setup to get the best results. The project will help you to connect any arduino motor shield or other H-Bridges to the controller because it is open source and the output pins can therefor be changed as you like. You can upload a better modified version and improove this article by contacting me. With some pin changes you can port this code to other arduino boards.
