A little program to preview GLTF models with a few custom settings.
Currently focusing on University studies so development has slowed down.
Built with GLFW3, glad, GLM, imgui and nholmann/json using CMake and C
- Supports loading scenes and cameras
- Load GLTF and GLB files
- Post procressing shaders
- Live reloading of assets
- Multi camera viewports
- Custom skybox and ILB
The goal of this project was to learn more about glTF, learn about creating PBR and try to create a useable program that might have a real world use. I haven't designed the program to be as efficient on memory as possible as the intended use case is for previewing scenes and/or models. There are many optimisations that could be made if loading a glTF file for a game to reduce loading time and memory usage.
GLTF Viewer uses CMake to build, allowing it to be used across multiple systems. There are a few ways you can build this project depending on what system and toolsets you have available:
If you use Microsoft's Vcpkg, first install all the dependencies:
.\vcpkg install glfw3 glm
Then build appending -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=[vcpkg root]\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake -DUSE_VCPKG to the command:
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=[vcpkg root]\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake --build .
GLTF Viewer doesn't include some libraries in the repo, instead preferring for the user to download them.
By default, this project will load GLM and GLFW3 using find_package which require them to be installed.
Please see their respective pages on how to install them.
You can disable this behaviour and load a local version instead by setting the options USE_GLM_PACKAGE and USE_GLFW_PACKAGE to OFF respectively.
You'll then need to download these files manually however this can be done automatically by running setup.sh
