GAME EGINE
What is game engine?
Software that is extensible and can be used as foundation for
many different games without major modification.
(Jason Gregory)
Game Engine is a software system designed for creating and
developing games.The core functionality typically provided by a
game engine includes a rendering engine ("renderer") for 2D or
3D graphics, a physics or collision engine (and collision
response), sound, scripting, animation, artificial intelligence,
networking, streaming, memory management, threading,
support localization, and scene graphics.
Game Engine
• The game engine is a large and complex program
• A game engine can be used to build many types of games, not a
specific tool / technology for the development of one type of
game.
• The game engine can be added with new models (characters),
graphics, audio, etc.
ELEMEN Game Engine
• A game engine consists of the following elements:
• Graphics engine
• Engine input
• Audio Engine
• Game logic and AI Engine
• Networking Engine
• User interface and menu system (physics engine)

Graphics Engine

• The graphics engine is a major part of the game


• Rendering
• Between quality and speed
• using rendering libraries such as OpenGL and Direct3D
• Making lighting and Texture mapping
• Techniques such as creating shadows, environment mapping, light mapping,
mapping, lightmaps
Input and Audio
• Input Engine
• Set input devices for controlling the game.
• Windows event loop, and DirectInput

• Sound and Music


• DirectX Sound API
• OpenAL (Open Audio Library www.openal.org)
Networking
• Networking is required for multiplayer games
• Some of the problems are related to games that utilize the network :
• Latency: How long does it take for state to be transmitted
• Reliability: How often is data lost or corrupted
• Bandwidth: How much data can be transmitted in a given time
• Security: How is the game-play protected from tampering
• Example : DirectPlay on the DirectX communication library
AI and Game Rules
• The second most important thing after graphics
• Is the behavior / response of characters in the game (characters other than
players)
• Knowledge: rules, knowledge bases, search abilities
• Environment awareness: danger etc.
• Decision making: rules, reasoning and learning abilities
• World Navigation: path planning
• In FPS: How does the AI get from room to room?
• In RTS: User clicks on units, tells them to go somewhere. How do they get there? How do
they avoid each other?
• Dynamic path planning: What happens when the environment changes after the plan
has been made?
