| | OGRE: Good, bad, or ugly? - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums |
 | | Even if you decide not to use Ogre and want to write your own engine, take the time to go through the headers, and source code to learn how DX and OpenGL are used to build a flexible and fast rendering engine. | | | Ogre has changed a lot since Aug 2003 (when I first looked at it) and is now a very capable modern rendering engine, and its free. | | | As far as a rendering API use goes, Ogre is a lot easier to work with than DX or OGL since Ogre takes care of the house keeping for you and allows you to work at a higher abstract level. |

| | The Doom engine is the game engine that powers the id Software games Doom and Doom II. | | | The Doom engine renders the walls as it traverses the BSP tree, drawing subsectors by order of distance from the camera so that the closest segs are drawn first. | | | Viewed from the top down, all Doom levels are actually two-dimensional, demonstrating one of the key limitations of the Doom engine: it is not possible to have "rooms above rooms". |

| | Gecko engine based browsers have spoofing flaw - TechSpot News |
| | The Netscape Browser, whilst currently using the Gecko rendering engine, will have the capability of switching to the Internet Explorer rendering engine (Trident), at the users discretion, in a future release. | | | The Opera browser uses it's own proprietary rendering engine known as Presto. | | | Finally other browsers that are built on other rendering engines such as the Opera browser (uses the Presto engine), Konqueror (uses the Khtml engine), Safari (uses Webcore, a variant of khtml) and Omniweb (uses Webcore) are affected because of their support for IDN not because of their rendering engine. |

| | To get Wik to run is software we used a combination of our existing software engine plus a lot of code from Anti-Grain Geometry which we integrated into our engine and then optimized for the specific cases we use it in. | | | For one, he has a software engine at his disposal so it's not too much trouble to move to it, for two he's got a big company so he needs to optimize his games to get every possible sale. | | | After James Smith mentioned he switched to software rendering for his games, I'm wondering if anyone here would be willing to give a quick heads up list on how to approach this sort of thing properly on Windows. |

| | During the rendering process of the present invention, the render engine is preferably requested to dither the data and render the image scan line by scan line in the CMYK colour space. | | | Assuming that the current rendering systems also require approximately 10 megabytes for the program and the operating system, the total memory requirements to render the image using only the primary memory of the computer would be 49 megabytes. | | | A specialized printer may be provided which incorporates a render engine in hardware or software and the printer has the capability to print files in a conventional data standard and print images in a customized manner when the images are formatted in the universal format using the render engine to process the images. |

| | A Reader Calls On MS To Adopt Mozilla's Rendering Engine - MozillaZine Talkback |
| | Besides, this rendering engine probably wouldn't work on all the classes of devices that will be using browsers (whether they need to or not) in the future. | | | Having a single rendering engine does nothing to address this problem, it just hides the problem and encourages the same old "it works on X, therefore it is correct" mentality. | | | Of course this is only the opinion of the USER of the engine, so depending on how much you value the user's (not the content developers', or browser developers') opinion this method of choosing an engine might not be a good one. |

| | flipcode IOTD - Steve Streeting (12-06-2001) |
| | but what makes OGRE a little different is that it's a highly abstracted OO engine which is not designed around BSP scene management, or even indoor rendering - it's designed to be scene oriented rather than level structure oriented, with a class hierarchy dealing with specialisations like using BSPs in an indoor environment. | | | The problem is, it's been already overa year that I've been fiddling with the engine and I haven't released an alpha version, simply because, well... | | | Ogre is a great project, not because it's a 3d engine but because the docs, diagrams, OO design are so clean. |

| | The Scanline Rendering Engine |
| | Central to every rendering system is a rendering engine which converts the mathematical descriptions of the modeling primitives into shaded and hidden-surface images. | | | The alpha channel output from the renderer is computed as the total area coverage of the pixel fragments within a pixel. | | | In order to minimize memory, the renderer does not allocate any memory for an object until the current scanline intersects with its bounding box; at this point the renderer begins to allocate memory for the object on a per-scanline and a per-pixel basis. |
