Skylicht Engine

Skylicht Engine, which is an evolution of the Irrlicht Project. We have upgraded more features: Sound Engine, Physics Engine, Particle Engine...

• Core functionality: Direct3D11, OpenGL 4+, OpenGLES 3+, Google Angle GLES video driver backends.

• Cross-Platform Framework: Android, IOS, Win32/Win64, UWP, Linux, MacOS, HTML5.

• Render pipeline: Forwarder & Deferred.

Skylicht Engine is a super lightweight Game Engine that targets mobile platforms (Android, IOS). And, it's completely free.

How to build the project

Platform	Build Status
Windows
Cygwin64
Windows Store
MacOS
Linux
Emscripten
Android

Prerequisites

• CMake 3.12 or higher
• Python 3.x
• Visual Studio (2017 or higher if you want to build on Windows OS)

Build source code

• Clone this repo

• Build assets bundle

  C:\skylicht-engine>cd Assets
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>python BuildAssetBundles.py
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>cd ..

• Run CMake from the current directory to generate visual studio project or xcode project

  # Visual Studio 2017
  C:\skylicht-engine>cmake -S . -B ./PrjVisualStudio -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" -A x64
  
  # Visual Studio 2019
  C:\skylicht-engine>cmake -S . -B ./PrjVisualStudio -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64
  
  # Xcode
  /User/Skylicht/Documents/skylicht-engine$cmake -S . -B ./PrjMac -G Xcode 
  
  # Linux
  $ skylicht-engine$ cmake -S . -B ./PrjLinux -G "Unix Makefiles"

• Open the generated solution PrjVisualStudio/SKYLICHT_ENGINE.sln

• Once the solution opens, right click the SampleXXX project, click "Set as StartUp Project" and click the play button at the top to run the Demo App.

• More details: please preview command in BuildCommand folder.

Build data assets

Compress Texture

• Optional, You can skip this step if you don't modify any resource texture.
• This python tool will convert texture .TGA to compressed texture (.DDS, .ETC2, .PVRTC) to optimize gpu memory on runtime.

  # Install Tinydb
  # https://pypi.org/project/tinydb
  C:\skylicht-engine>C:\Python37\Scripts\pip install tinydb
  
  # Install Pillow (Image processing)
  # https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/4.1.x/index.html
  C:\skylicht-engine>C:\Python37\Scripts\pip install Pillow
  
  # Compress TGA to DDS, ETC2, PVR texture
  C:\skylicht-engine>cd Assets    
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>python BuildTextureCompressDDS.py
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>python BuildTextureCompressETC.py
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>python BuildTextureCompressPVR.py
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>cd ..

Build Shader

• Optional, You can skip this step if you don't modify any shader.
• This python tool use C Preprocessor to inline shader script (HLSL, HLSL)

  # Install pcpp (C Preprocessor tool)
  # https://pypi.org/project/pcpp
  C:\skylicht-engine>C:\Python37\Scripts\pip install pcpp
  
  # Build shader script
  C:\skylicht-engine>cd Assets
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>python BuildShader.py
  C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>cd ..

Add your code to Project

Add source code

• Add new source files or subfolders on Projects/{ProjectName}/Source and regenerate project

  C:\skylicht-engine>cmake -S . -B ./PrjVisualStudio -G "Visual Studio 15 2017" -A x64

Create application project

• Run Scripts/create_project.py. Example: Create application NewApplication at folder Samples\NewApplication

    C:\skylicht-engine>python Scripts\create_project.py NewApplication Samples\NewApplication

• Edit CMakeProjects.cmake, add new line:"subdirs (Samples/NewApplication)" and regenerate projects
• Open Visual Studio Solution and click NewApplication - "Set as StartUp Project".

Android

Prerequisites

• Install Android Studio and SDK
• Install mingw-w64 for Windows
• Install Android NDK

How to build

Step 1: Build native library

• Edit the file BuildCommand/BuildAndroidNDK.cmd by text editor and update your path MINGW and NDK

# BuildAndroidNDK.cmd
# Set your pc folder, example
set MINGW=C:\mingw-w64\x86_64-8.1.0-posix-seh-rt_v6-rev0\mingw64\bin
set NDK=C:\SDK\android-ndk-r21e
...

• Run BuildCommand/BuildAndroidNDK.cmd to build android native library

Step 2: Copy native library to Gradle Project

# Make folder jniLibs on Android Project
C:\skylicht-engine>mkdir Projects\Android\app\src\main\jniLibs\armeabi-v7a
C:\skylicht-engine>mkdir Projects\Android\app\src\main\jniLibs\arm64-v8a

# Copy result native ndk (from step 1) to jniLibs
# Project SampleSkinnedMesh
C:\skylicht-engine>copy Bin\Android\Libs\arm64-v8a\libSampleSkinnedMesh.so Projects\Android\app\src\main\jniLibs\arm64-v8a
C:\skylicht-engine>copy Bin\Android\Libs\armeabi-v7a\libSampleSkinnedMesh.so Projects\Android\app\src\main\jniLibs\armeabi-v7a

Step 3: Copy asset resource to Gradle Project

C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>python BuildTextureCompressETC.py
C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>python BuildAssetBundles.py
C:\skylicht-engine\Assets>cd..

# Create assets folder in Gradle Project
C:\skylicht-engine>mkdir Projects\Android\app\src\main\assets

# Copy built-in asset
C:\skylicht-engine>copy Bin\BuiltIn.zip Projects\Android\app\src\main\assets

# Copy project asset
# Project SampleSkinnedMesh
C:\skylicht-engine>copy Bin\Common.zip Projects\Android\app\src\main\assets
C:\skylicht-engine>copy Bin\SampleModelsResource.zip Projects\Android\app\src\main\assets

# Dont forget copy ETC texture
C:\skylicht-engine>copy Bin\SampleModelsETC.zip Projects\Android\app\src\main\assets

Step 4: Build APK by Android Studio or Gradle

Open Android Studio and import project Projects\Android

Run command build from Android Studio:

Android development

• You can rename your package name at build.gradle (Projects\Android\app)
• You can rename your application name at string.xml (Projects\Android\app\src\main\res\values)
