Razix Engine

Razix is a High Performance Research Engine for production pipeline with emphasis on experimenting with different rendering techniques. Razix supports Windows, Mac, Linux, PSVita and PS3 systems.
⚠️ WARNING:Currently Razix is WIP and the renderer is undergoing major design overhaul thread with caution while using, check the RoadMap below for release information

About

Cross-Platform 2D and 3D engine with multi render API support (Vulkan, DirectX 12). Supports a wide range of Renders with extreme emphasis on scene optimization and implementing state-of-the art rendering techniques. The engine architecture supports a very educational and optimized design.

Features

  • Built using C++17. (Engine will be reverted back to C++14 once entt/sol have been removed and only Jolt will be compiled in C++17 mode)
    • C++14 over C++11 because constexpr and sizeof and improved lamdbas are needed for framegraph.
  • Support for Windows, Linux, macOS.
  • Support for OpenGL, Vulkan & DirectX 12.
  • Data Driven Framegraph based on EA's frostbite engine (based on skaarj 1989's Framegraph implementation)
Node based
Frame Graph Editor
  • 3D audio using OpenAL
  • Complete Deferred pipeline + Bindless resources + nanite-like renderers(Future support for customizable render graph editor for complete control).
  • Level Editor & tools built using QT
  • Multi Physics engine support.
  • 3D physics using Jolt.
  • Basic lua scripting support for entities.
  • Extremely detailed profiling using Tracy and RenderDoc integrated
  • Supports GLSL, HLSL shading languages to create custom materials + Custom Razix Shaders files for easy compilation
  • Resource Pool base management and custom asset format
Resource Viewer
  • Data drive pipeline architecture - FrameGraph uses JSON files
  • Custom Razix STL and Razix Memory
  • WorldRenderer Passes
    • Lighting and shadows
      • Directional lights with CSM (Cascaded Shadow Mapping)
      • Point lights
      • Spot lights
    • Deferred PBR
    • IBL
    • Skybox (HDR & Procedural)
    • SSAO
    • Debug Drawing
    • ImGUi
    • Tonemapping
    • FXAA
    • TAA (WIP)

Experimental features:

  • Machine Learning sandbox (custom NNs class + Transformers WIP) CPU only for now, later might be ported over the engine RHI layer
  • Department based memory/frame time budget profiling (inspiration from SMS GDC talk and Insomniac engine)

DirectX11, OpenGL has been deprecated. Only high-level APIs and RTX level GPUs will be supported. PSVita(GXM) and PS3(GCM) will be supported sometime far in future.

Tools

Razix also provides a rich set of GUI and Commmand Line Tools along with the Editor for various purposes such as

  • Razix Asset Packer - CLI Tool + API for Editor - Export 3D Models into custom razix format Meshes and Materials

RoadMap

V 1.0.0 - RC
