TmingEnggine use a open source UI framework named dear-imgui . The advantage of this framework is easy using ，convenient extension ，little limilimit with using MIT LICENSE 。So we can easy to develop a game editor by import this framework.

My goal is to develop a full-platform Editor (Windows Mac Linux) ,then I need to abstract a windows layer，above this abstract layer to develop the game engine editor。So I use OpenGL for backend rendering，use glfw to create a windows , finally use the dear-imgui to build editor layout widget 。I want to use vulkan to replace the OpenGL in the future。If the abstract windows layer design good enough ，then we can easy to change backend rendering library.

Even though I have used Unity for a long time , but I still don't know why Unity have to design those widgets . But those layout design is the really reason that I change use the tool from Cocos to Unity. Because of the continuation of the user habit , as a beginner ，we can also fellow the old version tutorial to exercise in the the latest editor tool .

So the design of TmingEngine editor , I just imitate the Unity . I will learn other 3D rendering tool UI layout , then bring the good design to my project.

It's a demo stage now ,so we can't develop all part of a completed engine at the same time. So I focus on support a convenient IDE to test and display the shader ，then to finish other part of a completed engine.

I have imported a soft rendering framework tinyrenderer to TmingEngine . We can make the vertext shader and fragment shader by just writting c++ code directly .

Because all the part of the rendering pipeline we defined by ourself , so we can just use c++ code to change the model's vertext and the screen pixel color , and we can make a breakpoint at the runtime. But a model maybe have a thousand of vertext , therefore the performance of soft rendering will be not effective enough.

Thrid part Code editor ImGuiColorTextEdit Use this code editor we can write glsl shader more easy , maybe support other feature in the future. We can select a glsl file at the editor asset layout , then the shader code will be open .

CMake https://cmake.org

1. git clone https://github.com/xiaomingfun/TmingEngine
2. cd TmingEngine
3. click GenerateProject.bat
4. open the build/TmingEngine.sln
5. enjoy it !!

1. git clone https://github.com/xiaomingfun/TmingEngine
2. You can use CMake GUI Tool the generate the Project to build folder
   1. CMake GUI Tool : Set Source Path (path/to/TmingEngine)
   2. CMake GUI Tool : Set Binary Source Path (path/to/TmingEngine/build)
   3. Congigure
   4. Genarate
   5. Open Project
3. enjoy it !!

1. git clone https://github.com/xiaomingfun/TmingEngine
2. cd TmingEngine
3. ./GenerateProject.sh
4. enjoy it !!

TmingEngine use mono to support C# for scripting . And we can debug the c# code from source code with Visual Studio. So we can make a breakpoint in the c++ Editor project and make breakpoint in C# script project at the time.

1. Open TmingEngine\src\Managed\TmingCore\TmingCore.sln
2. build sln to generate 2 files TmingCore.dll TmingCore.dll.pdb
3. VS build success event will use pdb2mdb tool generate TmingCore.dll.mdb
4. dll output path : TmingEngine\Data\EngineScript
5. TmingEngine Editor ==> Console ==> Command run TmingCore.dll

1. Visual Studio install plugin MonoRemoteDebugger
2. run TmingCore.dll
3. run TmingEngine\Data\Tools\MonoRemoteDebugger.Server
4. use TmingCore.sln
5. Toolbar -> Extensions -> MonoRemoteDebugger -> Debug with Mono (remote)
6. Type remote IP Address .
7. Click Connect button.
