Introduction

Welcome to the Saga3D API documentation.

From this page you can find all necessary information to develop with Saga3D including: Guide, Tutorial, Note, ... and of course the detailed API documentation.

Basic usage

#include <Saga.h>
 
using namespace saga;
 
int main() {
  // initialize
  auto device = createDevice(video::E_DRIVER_TYPE::VULKAN, {800, 600});
 
  // grab important objects
  const auto& driver = device->getVideoDriver();
  const auto& smgr = device->getSceneManager();
 
  // set window title
  device->setWindowCaption("Saga3D Application");
 
  // create and set up render passes, pipelines
 
  // load meshes and textures
 
  // create scene nodes from loaded data
 
  // set pipeline for scene nodes
 
  // register scene nodes to render passes
 
  // add a static camera
  smgr->addCameraSceneNode();
 
  // render the scene
  while(device->run())
  {
     smgr->animate(); // animate cameras and scene nodes
 
     driver->begin();         // begin command buffer recording
     driver->beginPass(...);  // start the first render pass
     driver->endPass();       // end render pass
     driver->beginPass(...);  // start the second render pass, if there is
     driver->endPass();       // end render pass
     driver->end();           // end command buffer recording
 
     driver->submit();  // submit and wait for GPU execution
     driver->present(); // show rendered results on screen
  }
 
  return 0;
