This latest addition to the Wordware Game Developers Library describes how to create computer games with cutting-edge 3-D algorithms and effects. Advanced 3-D Game Programming Using DirectX 7.0 is intended specifically for those who know how to program with C++ but have not yet explored game or graphics programming. The authors include coverage of artificial intelligence, client-server networking using UDP, multi-texture effects, multi-resolution surface techniques, alpha blending, and more. Along with several sample applications that target specific algorithms, full source code is provided for a client-server networked 3-D first-person game that demonstrates many of the techniques discussed in the book, while giving the reader the opportunity to make their own additions.
The CD includes:
Full source code in C++, including a complete game demonstrating techniques covered in the book
Microsofts DirectX 7a SDK
Source code to other 3-D engines, including Quake, GL Quake, Quakeworld, Descent 1, Descent 2, Golgotha, and Crystal Space
