Advanced Alpha Blending - Vulkan Game Engine Tutorial 28.Implementing Shadow Mapping.
This course is an introduction to game development with the Vulkan graphics API. It covers topics such as opening a window, graphics pipeline overview, device setup, fixed function pipeline stages, swap chain overview, command buffers overview, vertex buffers, fragment interpolation, swap chain recreation and dynamic viewports, push constants, 2D transformations, renderer and systems, Euler angles and homogeneous coordinates, the math behind (most) 3D games, projection matrices, camera (view) transform, game loops and user input, index and staging buffers, loading 3D models, diffuse shading, uniform buffers, descriptor sets, introduction to point lights, vertex vs fragment lighting, project restructure and CMake, billboards, multiple lights, specular lighting, alpha blending and transparency, advanced alpha blending and shadow mapping. By the end of the course you should have a good understanding of how to set up and develop a game engine with the Vulkan API.
