A simple camera library for video games. Written in cpp20. Based on the absolutely fantastic Rust library Dolly
Camera rigs are engine agnostic and only provide a view transform for you to use.
This is an open sourced module from my personal game engine (Roy Awesome's Open Engine).
Note: Using the CMake Integration will automatically acquire glm using CPM.cmake.
Simply include this folder with cmake and depend on raoe::camera.
raoe::camera::controller look_at_controller;
look_at_controller.with<raoe::camera::yaw_pitch>(45.0f, 45.0f)
.with<raoe::camera::arm>(glm::vec3(0, 30, 0))
.with<raoe::camera::look_at>(glm::vec3(0, 0, 0));
//in your games update loop:
look_at_controller.update(your_delta_time);
glm::mat4 view_matrix = look_at_controller.view_matrix();
//use this view matrix anywhere you'd use this code.A huge shout out to h3r2tic's dolly library, which was used as a basis for this library.
