God Complex was intended to be a short DirectX11 64K intro. Then I started adding many tools and helpers, and it eventually became my work framework to test ideas and techniques.

Among the interesting techniques you can find in God Complex, are:

• Clouds rendering, an advanced version of my Nuaj' project for Unity
• Multiple scattering atmosphere (an implementation of http://www-ljk.imag.fr/Publications/Basilic/com.lmc.publi.PUBLI_Article@11e7cdda2f7_f64b69/index.html)
• Efficient and light-weight Global Illumination that handles dynamic lights and geometry

In the framework itself, you have:

• Support for all the daily-use DX11 features you'll ever require, very simple to use!
• Proprietary scene format: a lightweight conversion from FBX export file
• Proprietary image format: equivalent to DDS, converter provided as a tool project
• Shaders hot reload
• Advanced procedural textures generation using "fat pixels" (pixels with many more attributes than simple color and alpha)
• simple software drawing routines
• filters (gaussian blur, emboss, unsharp mask, errode, dilate, brightness/contrast/gamma)
• generators (normal, AO, dirt, curvature)
• noise (Perlin up to 6D, Wavelet, cellular, Worley) + combinations (Fractional Brownian Motion, Ridged Multi Fractal)
• Simple procedural objects generation (plane, box, sphere, cylinder, torus)
• V2 Music player
• Math library: vectors, matrices, quaternions, random numbers, colors
• Spherical Harmonics Library: SH, ZH, etc.
• Camera manipulators: namely a simple FPS manipulator
• Memory Mapped Files support: to control your parameters from an external C# application
• Plenty of C# tools in the Tools solution to help generate, convert and test features
