HellTech Engine

An WIP exploration of the modern rendering landscape with Vulkan 1.4+ on Windows.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Win10+
• Vulkan1.4+
• dedicated GPU ( preferably NV )

HtLib SUBTREE :

• Remote: https://github.com/Eichenherz/HtLib.git → HtLib/
• Pull upstream changes: git htlib-pull
• Push local changes back: git htlib-push
• Aliases are local to this repo (.git/config)

DEPENDENCIES :

• meshoptimizer
• cgltf
• spng
• SPIRV-Reflect
• Dear ImGui
• DirectXShaderCompiler ( comes with Win10SDK )

POINTS OF INTEREST ( WIP ):

• custom binary file format + asset compiler
• instance culling ( frustum + occlusion )
• meshlet culling ( frustum + occlusion )
• occlusion culling via HiZ buffer
• merge the triangles of the surviving meshlets into one index buffer
• 3 bytes tangent frames
• resource access in shaders relies on bindless or BDAs ( sometimes push descriptors too )
