ofxAPH - Old materials for MI-APH

About the project

• first of all, this project is not maintained anymore! It was used to showcase the component architecture in the first run of the Architecture of Computer Games course at FIT CTU in 2017
• in 2018, I rewrote the component model into TypeScript to make deployment and online showcasing a lot easier
• this project is written in C++ and contains a subset of a component-oriented game engine I built in 2015. Both run on top of OpenFrameworks framework.

What you can find here

• some examples and three games written in Component Architecture: Paratrooper, Pacman, and Arkanoid. Arkanoid is partially implemented in Lua scripting language

How to start

• download OpenFrameworks framework (it has to be version 0.10.0, the newer ones won't work)
• clone the content of this repository into your OpenFrameworks folder (OF/addons/ofxAph)
• Run ProjectGenerator (in the OF root directory) and create an empty project
• Select ofxAph as your addon
• Copy the Data folder into the bin directory of your new project
• Open your new project and go to main.cpp
• Run any of the examples by including the right header

include "ofMain.h"
// replace this header by anything declared below
include "example"

int main( ){

	ofSetupOpenGL(1024,768, OF_WINDOW);
	ofRunApp(new TwistExample());

}

Examples

• ComponentExample.h - an example of the component architecture
• PathFindingExample.h - simple pathfinding
• PerlinNoiseExample.h - Perlin Noise generator
• QuadTreeExample.h - Quad Tree viewer
• VerletExample.h - Verlet integration showcased on a cloth simulation
• PacmanApp.h - Pacman Clone
• AIAgentsApp.h - client/server mini RTS
• ParatrooperApp.h - Copter shooting g
• ArkanoidApp.h - Arkanoid Clone

If it doesn't work

• the common problem is Lua interpreter, located in libs/lua
• you have got to go to every *.c file and set up VS to compile it as C code
