Craft
Craft is a multiplayer voxel sandbox written in C. It utilizes an OpenGL voxel engine to render a block-based world and implements an infinite terrain generator that uses noise functions to create deterministic, procedural landscapes.
The project features a networked environment where players can build and modify a shared world using socket-based state synchronization. To maintain consistency across sessions, it employs a voxel world database to store and retrieve modified block coordinates.
The system covers a range of capabilities including 3D collision detection for character movement, tools for voxel structure editing, and an environmental simulation for a dynamic day-night cycle.
Features
- Voxel Engines - Features a custom 3D engine specifically architected for rendering and manipulating voxel environments.
- Game State Persistence - Saves and loads environmental modifications using a database to maintain a persistent game world.
- State Persistence - Integrates a database to maintain the modified state of the voxel world across user sessions.
- Client-Server Architectures - Implements a client-server model to separate game logic and maintain a shared world state.
- Noise-Based Terrain Generation - Uses noise functions to create a deterministic, infinite, and procedural voxel landscape.
- Voxel World Generation - Implements a deterministic infinite terrain generator using noise functions to create procedural voxel landscapes.
- Procedural Generation - Uses noise functions to automatically generate infinite and natural landscapes without manual design.
- Infinite Terrain Generators - Implements a system that uses noise functions to create a deterministic and infinite outdoor landscape.
