World-class: the main loop of each level needs some caring to:

1. Modularity:
   • The world exists of many different things: environment effects lights enemies the player and so on.
   • the idea is that the world loads, and updates them, but it should not paint them itself
   • Meaning: everything that is not a loop goes out of world and into a own class (like the light)

2. Design:
   • initialisations
     • file loading
     • class loading
   • loop
     • class updating
     • class drawing

3. Restucture:
   • Only functions that are really necessary are located here.
     • Load
     • init
     • loop
   • everything else goes out into other classes

I hope, that with such a modularity we can bring more insight, clearity and simplicity into the very important world-class.

The goal is to implement a video player, that renders an .avi stream onto a SDL 2D texture so it can be viewed on any object in the world and specialy as a screen of desired size.

• Requirements:
  • encode avi file format films BONUS: compressed avi file format
  • interprete it as a bitmap texture
  • display the texture 1) as a screen 2) as object in the world
• References:
  • ​nehe opengl avi player

Models are put through to the Graphicscard much faster, if they are packed into vertex-arrays

• Problem:
  • add Vertices/Normals/Texture Coordinates to an Array.
  • pack array into a glList
• Interface:
  • returns: glList or Array
