Overview
Created as part of the Programming Games module during my master's program, this project focuses on implementing real-time lighting and surface interaction effects using DirectX 10. The scene demonstrates key rendering techniques aimed at enhancing realism through programmable shaders.
Core Highlights & Technical Features
- •
Real-Time Reflection & Refraction: Created surface shaders to simulate dynamic light bending and reflective materials using multiple render passes.
- •
Dynamic Shadow Mapping: Implemented depth-based shadows with accurate projection based on light direction and occluders.
- •
Optimized Scene Composition: Built a balanced 3D layout to clearly demonstrate the interaction of light, shadow, and surface materials.
- •
Shader Programming: Wrote custom HLSL shaders for material response and per-pixel lighting accuracy.
- •
Focus: Designed as a technical demonstration of lighting theory, shader use, and real-time rendering concepts using DirectX 10.
