Realistic Image Synthesis Using Photon Mapping
ISBN: 9781568811475 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Photon mapping, an extension of ray tracing, makes it possible to efficiently simulate global illumination in complex scenes. Photon mapping can simulate caustics (focused light, like shimmering waves at the bottom of a swimming pool), diffuse inter-reflections (e.g., the "bleeding" of colored light from a red wall onto a white floor, giving the floor a reddish tint), and participating media (such as clouds or smoke). This book is a practical guide to photon mapping; it provides the theory and practical insight necessary to implement photon mapping and simulate all types of direct and...

Beginning XNA 3.0 Game Programming: From Novice to Professional
ISBN: 9781430218173 / Angielski / Miękka / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It's hard to believe the runaway popularity XNA has achieved in the short period of time since it was released in late 2006. At that time, I got together with a couple friends to check out (with some trepidation, I must confess) whether games really could be written in managed code. We were very excited, and everyone wanted to know if you could get the same benefits you obtain from writing games using managed code as you do when creating standard Windows programs. We knew people in the game programming community were worried about managed code's execution speed, and many people simply didn't...

Welcome to Zune Game Development Using XNA 3.0, a book that was inspired by two of my lifelong passions: games and music. I was introduced to the wonder of PC games with grou- breaking titles such as Doom and Quake in the mid-1990s, and have been an avid gamer ever since. I was also brought up in a musical family. Over time, I have amassed a collection of g- tars, drums, and other musical equipment that has ultimately failed in bringing my dreams of rock stardom to fruition. I have also attempted to write my own games for different platforms with varying degrees of success. Since 1997, I have...
