История версий

История разработки движка берет своё начало в 1998 году, когда двое начинающих программистов: Олесь Шишковцов и Александр Максимчук – объединяются для совместной работы над собственным 3d-движком, и создают игру "Морской бой". В 2000 году, уже работая в GSC Game World, они с нуля начинают многолетнюю разработку движка игры S.T.A.L.K.E.R. под названием X-Ray.

Ранние этапы разработки

Дизайн-документ 2002 года

The engine itself is designed with high scalability in mind to deliver the best possible experience on a wide range of consumer hardware. It is best illustrated by its capability to render high-quality photorealistic images even on low-end video boards with interactive frame rates. When running on high-end hardware the engine automatically utilizes available resources and specific features, such as vertex and pixel shading capabilities, to attain high level of gameplay immersion. Ability to create both indoor and outdoor scenes, realistic physics, scalable network and impressive sound enables us to develop immense game worlds of today and days to come. Powerful tool base allows direct interaction between the engine and popular modelling packages such as 3D Studio MAX, Lightwave3D, Maya, SoftImage, etc. This unique feature allows designers to quickly prototype game levels, effects, etc. Main features: Levels combining closed spaces as well as enormous open areas Visualization optimized for hardware TnL (both FF and shading capable parts) Continuous level of detail technology for all the geometry ~100 000 polygons per frame at 60 fps on average hardware Detailed character models (500-10 000 polys) Powerful skeleton-based animation allows usage of motion-capture hardware and produces smooth and realistic motion of characters - High-speed blended animation system capable of up to infinity number of bone interpolation & modulation - SSE/3Dnow! Technologies used for skinning and forward kinematics - Vertex shaders used on shading capable hardware Detail objects (grass/small stones/etc) Portal-style, non-linear subdivision based visibility detection system - Optimized for T&L hardware in the way of grouping primitives to large-size batches - Greatly reduces overdraw - which is the main slowdown on even high-level video boards - Usage of antiportals (aka Occluders) for occlusion culling Intelligent hardware state caching technology Both Direct and Radiosity lighting models Colored dynamic lights and dynamic “soft” shadows - Character shadowing - Intelligent light sources selection, clipping, merging - Makes possible more than 50 dynamic lights per frame at reasonable FPS-es - Ordinary stuff: flares, coronas, etc Intelligent shader subsystem Dynamically generated textures Reflections, chrome effects, etc. VR-Simulation engine optimized for massive payload High-performance collision detection allowing simultaneous motion of large number of characters in high polygonal environment Realistic physics simulation (ballistic, motions, fluid engine, snow, rain, explosions, etc.) Motion compensation scheme - Hides many visual artifacts produced by FPS-es instability Particle system with real physics High quality HRTF 3D-sound with clipping and partial wave tracing “Low-penalty” & “low-delay” reaction technology (less then 1ms to start HRTF 3D Sound Source to play) Context-relative multiple-mixed music streams in MP3/MP2/WMA/ADPCM formats Computer rivals possess virtual hearing and sight, which when combined with worked out AI makes them tough enemies Different kinds of enemies, military vehicles, helicopters, boats, etc (work in progress) Accurate hit calculation algorithm Powerful built-in scripting language - Full realization of C-language and partial C++ - Only 6-8 times slower than real (x86) code AI - Simulation Level-Of-Detail and Culling - Virtual sight, hearing, feeling - Fuzzy logic controlled agents - Advanced terrain reasoning with tactical assessment - Adapting tactics with reinforcement learning - Dedicated snipping tactics - Team maneuvers Support for all D3D compatible accelerators, starting from 2nd generation (TNT/Voodo2/etc); The most important part of the mathematics is optimized for SSE & 3Dnow! instructions Editor supports both 3DsMAX 2.5/3/4 and Lightwave 6.5/7 as modeling tools

X-Ray is a powerful game engine implementing cutting-edge technoligies to make it one of the best 3D engines as of today. The engine's might along with user-friendly tools ensures easy creation of most technologically advanced games with immersing visual and gameplay presentation of newest accelerators generation - NV30,31,34,35. List of main features provided with the X-Ray engine: Common Levels combining closed spaces as well as enormous open areas One demand loading makes possible to crate single huge level Game time 3ow, change of day and night (WIP) Powerful skeleton-based animation allows usage of motion-capture hardware and produces smooth and realistic motion of characters VR-Simulation engine optimized for massive payload Render The engine features two renderers deigned for DX7,8 and DX 9 generations of video cards. DX7,8 render: Support for all D3D compatible accelerators, starting from 3rd generation (GeForce2), optimized for GeForce3 and up. Visualization optimized for hardware TnL (both FF and shading capable parts) Continuous level of detail technology for all the geometry ~1 000 000 polygons per frame at 60 fps on average hardware Detailed character models up to 10 000 polys High-speed blended animation system capable of up to inBnity number of bone interpolation & modulation SSE/3Dnow!

Screen post-processing (cinematic effects) Shading Shader library is central to every part of our rendering pipeline Completely abstracts the graphics API Multi-pass Rendering Fallback Shaders Facilitates cross-platform development Separates shader writing from engine development DX 9 Render: DX 9 Render has all the same features as rst renderer, but har following in addition: Render use the so called "deferred shading" approach to break the barriers in polygon count found in the current and future leading game-engines. More than 3 million of fully bump-mapped polygons representing each frame and true per-pixel complex realtime dynamic lighting with light-material interaction. The use of high precision on up-to-date hardware allows basing the engine fully on HDR (High Dynamic Range) lighting Natural rendering of complex materials with proper light interaction, such as rusted metal, natural iora, glass, realistic skin, etc. Every pixel (not the texel) here can have it's own material with several coef cients Soft, physically correct shadows (unlike stencil ones) from everything onto everything True per-pixel lighting, physical umbra/penumbra compulations Hundreds of lighting per frame in realtime Natvie support for volumetric effects like fog, mist, lighting Frame buffer post-processing and photoshop-like effect (complex lters) push it even higher up the cinematic quality ladder. Detail objects Grass, small stones, etc. Traces, Wind, Reaction to pressing, Turbulence ows Physics Simulation speed outperforms many commercial engines Real-time IKm vehicle physics, etc. Collision database with low memory usage Collision detection optimized for large number of queries in highly polygonal environment ballistic, motions, uid engine, snow, rain, explotions, etc. Sound High quality HRTF 3D-sound with clipping and partial wave tracing Occlusion, obstruction, different environments Complex lters emulated through software in case of abscent HW-support Context-relative multiple-mixed music streams in MP3/MP2/WMA/ADPCM/OGG Vorbis formats Network Distributed computing Client Server based system Tools In-house made tools (Level, Shader, Particle, Actor Editors) Plug-ins for popular modeling packages Short and simple pipeline from modeling packages to in-game action AI Simulation Level-Of-Detail and Culting (2 AI models - high and low detail) Fiber based time distribution allows to built scalable AI without any slowdown Virtual sight, hearing and feeling Terrain reasoning with tactical assessment FSM with random factor Data driven desigh (pattern based evaluation functions are automatically generated and optimized on training examples - supervised learning)
