libwindmill - a 3D engine for your CASIO fx-9860G

Introduction

Windmill is a 3D engine project by Ninestars, originally developed in C++ and built with the CASIO fx-9860G SDK. It was adapted to compile with GNU utilities by Cakeisalie5.

This 3D engine is made to be easy to use, and modular, in order to quickly create a game, or to use it in an existing project. It features the following:

  • Calculates coordinates to display them on screen;
  • Camera that can move in any direction and turn around using two axes;
  • Management of display windows;
  • Depth buffer so objects hidden behind others aren't displayed;
  • Display of textures defined as images;
  • Simplified management of meshes and textures;
  • Display of fixed and dynamic objects that can turn following three axes;
  • Simultaneous renders.

Windmill is only a graphical engine, it only displays predefined triangles in space on the screen, which means it doesn't manage collisions between objects, or between an object and the camera.

Requirements/setup

This project is easier to build under GNU/Linux. It might be possible to build it for Microsoft Windows, but this host platform is not officially supported.

You will need GCC and GNU Binutils, both compiled for the sh3eb-elf target, and the G1A wrapper. A french tutorial of how to make and install all of these can be found on Planète Casio (steps 1 to 6 included).

Build

Just type in the following:

./configure && make
