Torcs in C#
Preliminary tasks:
- Compile torcs as a library, with very high interface: TorcsLaunch(). - Make a C# wrapper to it. - Launch torcs from Mono.
(see linux/main.cpp)
Secondary tasks:
- Evaluate how much code must be ported to C# so that rendering and driving code can be run without needing to call C# code from C++ (which I believe is hard / or just bad). - Do it! (if it sounds good).
Torcs 3D Engine.
The 3D engine implements an interface (defined in interfaces/graphic.h), it is given the high-level information about the track and cars and have to build and display its own geometry from this.
For now making a C# wrapper for the renderer would imply calling C# from C, is that possible?
The whole src/interfaces headers have to be wrapped to C# to.
Notes by Jeko for Jeko
It's almost pure OpenGL, so very easy to tweak.
Main work is done in src/modules/graphic/ssggraph/grmain.cpp
It builds a list of "screens" (main screen, mirrors, etc)
Each screen set up the opengl parameters he like and render track, then cars, etc..
Rendering of the car is done here: src/modules/graphic/ssggraph/grcar.cpp, grDrawCar()
