Wishlist and Ideas regarding this Wiki

Extend this list with stuff you would like to see in this wiki. If you know how to do any of those or have other ideas, start writing about it. Even if you only have some rough ideas that may work.

  • How to manually draw stuff on a texture/image?
  • How to fix a fast object not colliding with things?
  • How to change screen settings like the resolution during runtime? (Graphics has a SetMode function for that) How to get available options like screen resolutions?
  • How to interact with 3D objects with the mouse cursor?
  • How to do grass (on terrain) and stuff like trees with good performance? Wind effects?
  • How to do an effect for the screen? (like blurring the image or a night vision effect)
  • How to do 3D fog or clouds? Can there be a shader that uses the thickness of an object at that "pixel trace path" to give the color a strength?
  • How to manipulate the terrain heightmap and splatting in a fast way during run time? Like an explosion making a crater or building a road or building area while leveling terrain.
  • How to do cloth or hair that is kinda physics based? (maybe without collision)
  • How to make things destructable or deformable? Like slicing a wooden pole or deforming a tin can when it collides.
  • How to make a rope or fishing line that collides with stuff and connects things?
  • How to make a mirror or a portal like in "Portal"?
  • How to load a resource asynchronously and do stuff when it is loaded? Like loading a NPC model and set it up when it is loaded.
  • How to use 3d/volumetric textures and how do they work?
  • How to create and use functions that run in a separate thread and not in the main thread ?
  • How does the navigation mesh and crowd simulation work? Sample
  • Proper Game State guide (changing scene etc)
  • Drawing Text in 3D world
  • Drawing 2D sprites in the right order http://discourse.urho3d.io/t/tiled-map-editor-layers-sorting/2379
  • Can I unpack a package made with PackageTool? Yes, you can: https://github.com/morsm/UrhoPackageExtract
  • Adding Vulkan support
