Mverse

While learning about computer graphics (specifically OpenGL API) I decided to develop a program able to render a world, this goals remains undone but at least the project ended on a decent object file visualizer which relies only on GLFW and OpenGL libraries.

Dependencies

• glfw3
• OpenGL > 3.3
• glew

Installation

$ cd mverse
$ sudo make install

Before running Mverse set the following environment variables (on your .bashrc):

export MVERSE_VERTEX=/usr/share/mverse/dummy.vsh
export MVERSE_FRAGMENT=/usr/share/mverse/dummy.fsh

Usage

$ mverse [-v vertexshader] [-f fragmentshader] objfile

Keyboard

• W Move Forward
• S Move Backward
• A Move to the left
• D Move to the right
• K increase movement speed
• J decrease movement speed
• 1 Render triangles
• 2 Render lines
• 3 Render points
• ↑ increase the object size
• ↓ decrease the object size

Examples

Download cessna object file and this material file in the same folder (for examples models), and run the following:

$ mverse models/cessna.obj

it will render:
