Personal Render Engine

Vulkan Engine (incomplete)

What's this?

This is my personal version of a render engine using Khronos' Vulkan API. The main concept of the procedure is coming from an unofficial Vulkan-Support site, which has also taught me most of the knowledge about Vulkan.

Can I use it?

Yes, BUT ripping of a random engine from GitHub doesn't make you proud neither is it going to fit your needs, you should prefer using a frequently updated to the state-of-the-art site like this, which are dedicated to teaching Vulkan-noobs the API, you should also check out their Tutorial-Repository here.

Requirements

You will need a few things to open the Project written in Visual Studio 2019, which are as follows:

• Vulkan SDK (1.3.216.0) (I've installed everything available in the installer)
• glfw (3.3.7 WIN64)
• glm

Add the following to your Visual Studio Project Settings to make the packages work:

• C/C++ -> General
  • .../VulkanSDK/version/Include
  • .../glm
  • .../glfw-version.BIN.platform/include
• Linker -> General
  • .../VulkanSDK/version/Lib
  • .../glfw-version.BIN.platform/lib-vcversion
• Linker -> Input
  • vulkan-1.lib
  • glfw3.lib
