Anyone have recommendations for learning raytracing code? Specifically with a focus on low-level environments, like 8 or 16 bit.
@makeworld Well, there's https://github.com/akkartik/mu/tree/main/linux/apps/raytracing. It does require 32-bit x86 (and Linux to be snappy)
First example colorized: http://akkartik.github.io/mu/html/linux/apps/raytracing/1.mu.html
Main project page: https://github.com/akkartik/mu
@akkartik thanks for the links! The linked "Raytracing In One Weekend" page looks helpful as well.
@makeworld I have stumbled on this one in the past and it was the first time I almost understood part of a ray tracer hahaha
@makeworld This isn't 8/16 bit-specific, but I've found the pbrt book to be a very good reference. The most recent version is free online at https://www.pbr-book.org/.
Never managed to find enough time to go through it myself, but heard good things about it
I found this code but I struggle to understand it rn lol
