Update 2

Summary of Week#2

Work Done:

• Using my geometry and linking with particle to create one object geometry
• I am stuck at drawing multiple particle, I could have asked my professor, but I want to find on my own, right now, I am trying to draw multiple objects like this:
• direct3dImmediateContext->DrawIndexedInstanced(4, PARTICLE_COUNT, 0, 0, 0); (Direct3D)
• for(int i = 0; i < PARTICLE_COUNT; i++)
• {
• glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 0, 4);
• } (Open GL)
• Also for doing this, I added extern PFNGLVERTEXATTRIBDIVISORPROC glVertexAttribDivisor; inside OpenGlExtensions
• As for the interface, I am using the similar to how we are doing for geometry and effect and I am using “eae6320::Graphics::cParticle* m_particleContainer[MAX_PARTICLE];” in my bucket 

Next Week:

• Rendering multiple particles
• Creating a interface so that everyone can easily use it
