A completed project of 3rd year students of Saxion University of Applied Science in Enschede, the Netherlands.

Project dealt with the development of an game engine for a 3D third person space combat simulation. A game based on that engine is also included.

The project's configuration settings are created by the used NetBeans IDE. However portable GNU makefiles are used to build a single subproject and ANT scripts to build the complete project.

The engine makes use of the following 3rd party libraries:

• The OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library 1.5.8 http://glew.sourceforge.net/
• TinyXML 2.6.2 http://www.grinninglizard.com/tinyxml/
• OpenGL Mathematics 0.9.0.6 http://glm.g-truc.net/
• Several Boost 1.46 libraries:
• Boost.Test http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/libs/test/doc/html/index.html
• Boost.Serialization http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/libs/serialization/doc/index.html
• Boost.any http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/doc/html/any.html
• Boost.lexical_cast http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/libs/conversion/lexical_cast.htm
• Boost.numeric_cast http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_33_1/libs/numeric/conversion/doc/numeric_cast.html

The game uses the following 3rd party assets:
