Software Projects: FOX engine

FOX was my playground for freshing up my 3D coding skills on a shader capable rendering architecture (say DirectX 8). It was quite fun to get away from database centric programming again and doing some graphical stuff again.

ODE in FOX

Some things I played around with:

Multipass rendering
Per-pixel normal mapped lightig
Depth shadow mapping
3DSMAX exporter
ODE physics engine
MD5 model loader
Loader for NVidia's Dawn model
A little chess game

Project status

XChess final look

The project was never intended to be released and I stopped working on it since 3D programming (especially when done alone) is a real time-eater. Plus DirectX 8 is really out of date by now...
