Orxonox Tasks

There are some tasks concerning the orxonox project. Some of them are ideas or requirements, where you are free to design your own solution for a problem. Some others are just coding work, where all the designer work has already been done and you can begin directly with the implementation:

  • Hardcode Development Tasks:
    • Animation Player to display explosions…
    • Particle Engine to calculate big explosions - really fancy stuff
    • SoundEngine to make the choir of angels sing
    • Clipping/Culling to draw nothing, that we aren't looking at right now - implement it in c++, octrees etc.
    • Physics Engine implementation and integraten - quite a big project and very important
    • Material Class - to have all the material effects like shiny, textures, blending etc.
  • Development Extensions (less work, straight forward)
    • Sky Box to display the sky around our world
    • HUD to display and design a Heads Up Display
    • Shooting reimplementation
