It will always be hard to start, fun to run, and a rush to finish!
Who knew that drawing with 3D objects was a lot more detailed than drawing on paper? I really thought it would be easy at first but it was wrong. In Basic Programing (this replaced CompFun) we started with making programs that printed things, then move through making calculators, then 3D objects until finally making an assortment of things. By this time we were already grouped and know that we have to make projects together. Since we were taught with OpenGL we made it in OpenGL. Each groups was made up of three members, this would last them the whole term. As a group we were to create two main projects. The first one was the midterm project and the second one was the final project.
The first project require us to make a 3D object complete with its own 3D scene. My group originally came up with a project per person, but we made changes it when we found out that only one per group was needed. As a whole we came up with a garden with a rabbit playing/about play a piano. The scene has seven different trees( four normal trees, two cherry blossoms, and one bunny tree), five walls of hedges, four park benches, a one water fountain(it's not the moving kind!), and a piano playing bunny(with the piano bench and the piano. It took five hours to put everything together with three people working on it, and ten hours to get the piano done.
The final project required us to make a game using OpenGL. It was mentioned that Pong was a simple game to make so my group made 3D Pong. It looked like Ping-pong but the gravity is missing a long with a few details on the table. The ball could bounce off the walls to the sides of the table and it never touches the ground. The lovely thing about the program was you could turn on or off the one or both AIs or watch them play. There is a reset key if some one loses.
