Header Image

WeatherGL is a WebGL React project which requires a Javascript development environment.

  • There are two interaction modes:
    • Shadow Mode: Demonstrates a floating cube to showcase shadowmaps
    • House Mode: A bonus mode which enables you to walk around a house in first person.
  • To access the UI, click the burger menu on the top left.

Requirements

To run weathergl on localhost

npm install
npm run start

WeatherGL will appear on localhost:3000 (or it will give you the option to select another port)

Objectives

  1. The WeatherGL scene is correctly modeled with no visual artifacts or distortion.
  2. Models rendered in the WeatherGL scene are texture mapped.
  3. Rough surfaces in the scene (e.g. dirt) are bump mapped.
  4. An easy to use User Interface to change between the various weather options, and to interact with the environment.
  5. Synced sound effects which provide immersion into WeatherGLs landscape.
  6. A skybox with no visual artifacts or distortion.
  7. Lens flare for weather parameters which contain the sun. The lens flare should have no artifacts or distortion.
  8. Shadows using shadow mapping for weather parameters that contain the sun.
  9. Static Collision Detection to enable an immersive environment (e.g. bumping into things when walking around).
  10. Visual snow and rain effects using particle systems and/or other graphic techniques.
