Now that we have initialized direct3d, we can start displaying our crazy minds on the computer! Well... maybe not quite, but drawing a simple triangle is a huge step in the right direction, as ALL 3D objects and scenes we will be drawing are made up of them. Here we will draw a simple, solid blue colored triangle. We will discuss the rendering pipeline and get an idea of how shaders work.

Let's get some color in our scene. In this tutorial we will add color to our vertices to color our triangle. This involves updating the vertex shader to pass the color to the pixel shader, the pixel shader to output the color passed to it, the vertex structure to add a color attribute, and the input layout to include a color input element.

We finally get to the fun part of drawing geometry! I know it doesn't look like much, but this is a big step and very important to the future of our 3d games. Almost EVERYTHING you will draw on the screen consists of triangles, lines, points, and squares. In this lesson i will cover the pipeline stages as well, some only breifly as we will cover them in more detail later on. Also, we have an addition of a new file called an effect file. We need this file to draw anything on the screen. I will breifly go over it in this lessons, but later we can talk more about it.

In this tutorial we will learn how to use indices to define our triangles. This is useful because we can remove duplicate vertices, as many times the same vertex is used in multiple triangles.

This is another short lesson on how to use indices. Indices let you define how to draw your geometry. For example, you could draw a square by creating two triangles, each with 3 vertices. That makes 6 vertices you would need to create. Using an index buffer, you can create a square using only 4 vertices like we will do. Our index list will define the first triangle as vertex 0, 1, 2, and the second vertex as 0, 2, 3.
07. Depth

Here is another short lesson on how to impliment depth. We will create a depth/stencil buffer, then create a depth/stencil view which we bind to the OM stage of the pipeline. Binding a depth/stencil view to the OM stage will allow it to check each pixel fragement's depth value on the render target. If there are more than one pixel fragments in a spot on the render target, the pixel fragment with the lowest depth value (closest to the screen) will get drawn, and the others will be discarded.
The outcome of this tutorial will not look any different from the last tutorial, but implimenting a depth/stencil buffer is necessary to render 3D scenes in directx.

we will learn about depth testing in this tutorial. We will draw two quads, one further away from the camera, and one closer. We will draw the further away quad last to highlight the importance of depth testing. Without depth testing, the further away quad will show up in front of the closer quad because it is drawn second.

Index Buffers are used to speed up or optimize your program. They are pretty much the same thing as Vertex Buffers, but instead of storing vertices, it stores indeces. Buffers are used to speed up the rendering of geometry, and can be placed in video memory.

Here we will learn how to bind a depth buffer to our render target. A depth buffer tests each pixel on the back buffer before presenting it to the screen. If there is a primitive in front of another primitive, then the primitive in front will get its pixels drawn, and the pixels in the primitive behind that are covered up by the pixels in the primitive in front will not get drawn.

We will learn about the world, view, and local spaces in a 3D world, which will enable us to create a camera, so only the things the camera sees will be drawn to the screen. We will learn how to impliment a static (not moving) camera, and how to work with a shaders constant buffers, which are variables in an effect file that shaders can use, and we can update from our code.

I waited for this lesson until we have covered some things that need to be implimented in this lesson, such as blending and textures.
As you may or may not know already, font in direct3d 11 is a pain in the ass to say the least. I don't know what the developers were thinking exactly, but I believe they have taken out the ID3DXFont interface from direct3d in order to direct people to two new API's, Direct2D and DirectWrite. However, the worst part about this is that Direct2D is not "interopable" with D3D 11, meaning you can't use them together directly... (A big thumbs down for microsoft).
So anyway, enough complaining. There are a couple ways we can impliment font into D3D 11, and the one we will be learning about uses the two new API's microsoft wants us to use, because in fact, they could be very usefull and pretty cool, not to mention flexible (except for the fact we can't use them directly with a D3D 11 device...). Since we are not able to use them directly with a D3D 11, we will need to use them with a D3D 10.1 device, and swap between the two devices when rendering.

In this lesson, we will learn how to make a high resolution timer in three functions, which we can use to make sure the speed of every moving thing in our scene is updated based on time. This means that no matter what our frames per second are, an object moving in our scene will cover exactly the same distance in one second, whether the fps is 3, 30, or 300, as the distance the object covers or how much it spins will be based on time, and not fps like we have been doing. I waited to have a font lesson before I did this one so we can display the fps, as thats always a nice thing to know when developing games.

To make our scenes more realistic and fun, we can use a technique called lighting. In this lesson, we will learn about the different kinds of light, and the math that is involved. At the end of the lesson, you will have learned how to impliment a simple lighting technique called Directional Lighting. Remember that the fixed function pipeline was taken out of directx 10, and structures and types used to impliment lighting in directx 9 were part of the fixed function pipeline. What this means, is lighting must now be done manualy in directx 10, making it a bit more tedious, but also giving you much more control over it.

As games can have quite complex and detailed models, containing thousands of triangles, checking every triangle in the entire scene for an intersection EVERY frame would slow the game down considerably. In this lesson we will learn a how to impliment a technique to cut down the amount of triangles we test every frame for an intersection by creating a bounding box for each of our models. That way, we only test the few triangles in each models bounding box for an intersection, and if there was an intersection, we can test the actual model for an intersection. This will be a huge gain in performance later when you have thousands of models to test for intersections.

In this lesson we will learn how to load a static 3d model from an .obj file. .obj files are not usually what you will want to use in a game, as they don't contain animation, and they are in ascii format, so a bit larger than other formats such as .3ds, but they are a good starting point for learning how to load models.
This lesson will build directly off the last lesson, spotlights.
The upcoming lessons (Specular lighting, and Normal mapping. Probably others too) will use the code from this lesson as the starting point.
BTW, please go easy on me when making fun of my poor modeling skills...

Sphere-Sphere Collision Detection:
Most games wouldn't be much without collision detection. In this lesson, which builds off the last lesson, we will learn how to create a binding sphere from the binding box we created in the last one. Then we will use this binding sphere to test if the objects on the screen are colliding. If they are, we will move the object that is being collided with, depending on the angle at which they are colliding at.
We will only learn how to test binding spheres for collisions in this lesson, but my next lesson will be aimed at Triangle-Triangle collision detection, which of course would be much much much more accurate for the average model than using a binding sphere.

This lesson builds directly off the last lesson, normal mapping.
Here we will learn how to turn the 2d screen position (in pixels) that the mouse cursor is at, into a 3d ray in world space. We can then check to see if that ray intersects with any of the objects on the screen. (The objects in this case are "supposed" to be bottles, but i've been recently told they look like urns...).
If the ray intersects with any of the bottles in this lesson, we will display the distance from the camera to that bottle, increase the score, and remove that bottle from being displayed any longer and from being checked if the ray picks it again.

This lesson builds directly off the last lesson, Bounding Sphere Collision Detection. In this lesson, we will learn how to impliment a very accurate collision detection model, Triangle to Triangle. Although the idea is pretty simple, the math can get a little complex, so you might want to brush up on your math skills. I will try to explain as best as I can though.
The only new things in this lesson are two new functions. One function for detecting a triangle to triangle collision (which calls the second function to complete the detection) and another function to test whether a point is inside a triangle.
I did this so you could easily put these function into your own project, and/or use the point in triangle function to test for accurate picking, when picking a 3d model.

Think if your scene has a couple thousand models in it, and each model has a couple thousand triangles. Now if you were to pick them using just the picking method from the lesson above, it might take 5 seconds just to finish that picking operation. 5 seconds on a single frame is just not acceptable, and this is where bounding volumes come into play.
We will be learning how to create and use a Bounding Box and a Bounding Sphere. The bounding box is usually more accurate than the bounding sphere, but it also takes a little more time to do the picking operation than the sphere takes.
We will use our High Resolution timer from an ealier lesson to time exactly how long the operation for each picking method takes.

We will learn how to detect a collision between two objects in this lesson. We will be learning how to use their bounding volumes to do the collision detection instead of the object themselves, as it is much more simpler, and much faster to compute than triangle to triangle collision detection.
In this lesson, we will build a pyramid of bottles or something, and "throw" a bottle when the mouse button is clicked. If the "thrown" bottle collides with one or more of the bottles in the pyramid, then they both just dissapear and the score is increased. I know, I know, not very realistic physics, but i've decided to skip all that extra stuff so we can just focus plainly on the actual collision detection methods.

MD5 models are split into two separate files; "md5mesh" and "md5anim". This is convenient since I was planning on splitting this lesson into two lessons anyway, one for loading the MD5 model, and one for animation. This lesson being the first of two, will teach you how to load the MD5 model from the "md5mesh" file and set up the vertex positions based on the layout of the joints. The next lesson will teach you how to load the animation for the model from the "md5anim" file and animate your model. In this lesson, we will cover the following:
- The "md5mesh" format
- A breif introduction to quaternions
- How "bones" work in skinned models
(You may be wondering why it's taken me so long to complete this lesson. The reason is because i'm so bad with creating 3D models, and I would like to have a decent looking model for this lesson, since we will be animating it and fun things like that ;)

Here is the second part of the lesson, animating the MD5 model. The MD5 format uses a skeletal system to do the animation (more specifically, joints), so we will be learning how to loop through the animation stored in the "md5anim" file and apply it to our model. Skeletal systems are nice because they take up less memory than storing keyframe animations, where its basically a new model for every frame of animation. The joint system (which we will be using) just stores the orientation and position of the bones at each frame. Bone systems are also cool when you want to do "rag-doll" physics! After this lesson, you should be able to load in skeletal animations from any model, and even be able to create your own animations or a rag-doll effect during runtime!

This one is a more interactive one than the previous ones. We will learn how to "slide" our camera around our world using a spherical shape called an ellipsoid, using the technique described in "Improved Collision detection and Response" by Kasper Fauerby. We learn how to detect a collision between a swept sphere and triangle, and the result is a very pleasing "sliding" camera, which slides around on our terrain, slides up stairs, and slides over small objects. It's great because it does not get "stuck" on hard edges (if you do it right). We will also be implimenting gravity so we will not float away.
This technique does not only apply to a camera, it will apply to any object you wish to slide around, and in fact, you don't even have to have the object slide around, you can VERY EASILY change the code so that the object will "bounce" off the surface instead of sliding across it.

Before anything, I want to say instancing is actually much more simple to do than you may think.
In this lesson, we will be rendering a forest using the technique called "Instancing". We will be drawing 400 trees, with 1000 leaves on each tree, giving us a total of 400,000 leaves! Instancing is a fast way to draw many of the same meshes with similar geometry but slight changes, such as positions, color, rotations, animation, etc. This technique can mean the difference between 1 frame per second and 500. We will be drawing the trees using instancing, only chaning the position of the trees. Then we will draw the leaves using instancing, passing in a matrix array to a constant buffer which will give us the position of each leaf on a single tree, and using the instance buffer to move the leaves to their correct trees.

This is another lesson that you will most definitely want to learn how to do because of the massive performance boost it can give you. In this lesson, we will have 4000 trees in our scene! How is this possible? This is possible with the technique called frustum culling! We will be learning how to check if an objects AABB (Axis-Aligned Bounding Box) is within the cameras view, and if it isn't, we will not send it to the GPU, easy as that!
I say "CPU Side Frustum Culling" because the GPU actually does frustum culling for us. The problem with that though, is that the GPU must check every single triangle we send to it, so in this lesson, we will check if an objects bounding volume is within view of the camera before we send it to the shaders for more accurate frustum culling.
