The aim of this coursework is to make use of GLSL shader language to create graphical effects used in a battlefield game. By using ATI Render Monkey, following effects needs to be implemented.

• Textured terrain
• Combat vehicles and military equipmentssd
• Flying Shiny aircraft
• Animated water
• Sky and mountain
• Bumpy brick walls
• Fire, smoke and explosions
• Animated battle flags
• Animated tongue of fire
• Sand clouds
• Shadow effects
• Ray traced reflection and refraction effects

Techniques used:

• Ray trace
• Bump mapping / Parallex mapping
  
• Cube mapping
• Particles Effects
• Billboarding
