Project #2 - Particles Everywhere

C++/OpenGL

DESCRIPTION

Particle system simulation

Gauss/Matrix/Vector/Utility by Dr. House
Model Class modified to create an isosphere & plane

Usage: particles [param_filename]

KEY COMMANDS

m or M		IMPORTANT: transforming camera view to simulation control (default: camera)
p or P		switches from ortho to perspective views (default: perspective)
r or R      	resets the simulation, so if you change parameters - this will re-read them
b or B		changs from blend to non-blend mode
q or ESC	quit

MOUSE COMMANDS

SIMULATION:
RMB		opens menu
LMB 		triggers selected option

CAMERA: 		  left button		 |	   middle button  	|		right button
left drag	(-) rotation: model's y	 |  (+)-r: camera's y	|  (+) translation: camera's z
right drag	(+) rotation: model's y	 |  (-)-r: camera's y	|  (-) translation: camera's z
down drag	(+) rotation: model's x	 |  (+)-r: camera's x	|  (+) translation: camera's z
up drag		(-) rotation: model's x	 |  (-)-r: camera's x	|  (-) translation: camera's z

MENU COMMANDS

Continuous/Step		changes simulation between continuous or step
Quit				quit
