About this title

Synopsis:

This book teaches readers everything they will need to know about seventeen awesome effects for game programming; including dynamically generated landscapes, fog, motion blur, and environment mapping. Detailed explanations of each trick, along with easily dissected sample code, allow readers to turn their games from everyday doldrums into bleeding edge eye candy.

Review:

"Game programming is without a doubt the most intellectually challenging field of computer science in the world. However, we would be fooling ourselves if we said that we are 'serious' people! Writing (and reading) a game programming book, should be an exciting adventure for both the author and the reader." Andre LaMothe, Series Editor
