Graphics3DSample

Graphics3DSample is a cross-platform 3D graphics demo built with MonoGame, showcasing animated models, lighting, textures, and interactive UI elements. The project is based on the Microsoft XNA Community Game Platform and demonstrates modern game development techniques using MonoGame.

Features

  • 3D spaceship model rendering
  • Animation system driven by XML definitions
  • Per-pixel lighting and multiple light sources
  • Interactive UI buttons (checkboxes) for toggling features
  • Touch and gesture support (pinch to zoom, drag to rotate)
  • Mouse support for camera rotation, zoom, and UI interaction
  • Background textures and effects

Controls

Mouse (Desktop)

  • Left Mouse Drag: Rotate camera (spaceship view)
  • Mouse Wheel: Zoom in/out (change camera FOV)
  • Right Mouse Drag: Pinch-like zoom (alternative to wheel)
  • Click UI Buttons: Toggle lighting, animation, and background texture

Touch (Mobile)

  • Free Drag Gesture: Rotate camera
  • Pinch Gesture: Zoom in/out (change camera FOV)
  • Tap UI Buttons: Toggle lighting, animation, and background texture

Project Structure

  • Core/ — Shared game logic, models, animation, and UI components
  • Platforms/Windows/ — Windows-specific project files
  • Platforms/Desktop/ — DesktopGL (cross-platform desktop) project files
  • Platforms/Android/ — Android project files
  • Platforms/iOS/ — iOS project files
  • Content/ — Game assets (textures, models, animations)

Prerequisites

Notes

  • All platform projects share the core game logic in Core/.
  • Content assets are located in Core/Content/ and referenced by each platform project.
  • For mobile platforms, ensure you have the necessary SDKs and emulators installed.
