miniRT

My first RayTracer using the minilibx graphics library.

The main goal of miniRT is to prove to yourself that you can implement any mathematics or physics formulas without being a mathematician

About:

Mandatory part:

• Your program has to display the image in a window.
• The management of your window must remain fluid (changing to another window, minimizing, and so forth).
• You need at least these 3 simple geometric objects: plane, sphere, cylinder.
• If applicable, all possible intersections and the inside of the object must be handled correctly.
• The use of the images of the MiniLibX is mandatory
• Your program must be able to resize the object’s unique properties: diameter for a sphere and the width and height for a cylinder.
• Your program must be able to apply translation and rotation transformation to objects, lights and cameras (except for spheres and lights that cannot be rotated).
• Light management: spot brightness, hard shadows, ambiance lighting (objects are never completely in the dark).
• You must implement Ambient and diffuse lighting.
• Your program must take as a first argument a scene description file with the .rt extension

Example output (temple.rt):

Usage:

This program is designed to work on MacOS and Linux.

# Clone the repository:
$> git clone --recursive https://github.com/fv99/miniRT.git

# Compile:
$> make

# Run with valid map as parameter:
$> ./miniRT map.rt

Example input:

Elements which are defined by a capital letter can only be declared once in the scene.
