Ring drawer using line drawer

The RingDrawer class uses the LineDrawer class to draw the segments of a ring. For example, for number of segments equals to 10:

void RingDrawer::draw(const QVector2D &center, float radius,
    const QVector3D &color, int numberOfSegments, float thickness)
{
    float angle = 0.f;
    const float angleStep = 360.f / numberOfSegments;

    float x = radius * qCos(qDegreesToRadians(angle));
    float y = radius * qSin(qDegreesToRadians(angle));
    QVector2D from(center.x() + x, center.y() + y);
    angle += angleStep;

    for (int i = 0; i < numberOfSegments; i++)
    {
        x = radius * qCos(qDegreesToRadians(angle));
        y = radius * qSin(qDegreesToRadians(angle));
        QVector2D to(center.x() + x, center.y() + y);
        m_lineDrawer->draw(from, to, color, thickness);
        angle += angleStep;
        from = to;
    }
}

For number of segments equals to 50: WebAssembly demo on free Netlify hosting

Get data with Qt client from deployed Node.js server using WebSockets (topic)

My following Qt 6.6.3 example works on Android, Desktop, and Web (with Qt WebAssembly). It prints data received from the server. The server contains the Box2D-WASM library. It sends the gravity value in JSON format when a client is connected. It is useful example to make multiplayer games with physics on the server side. I have deployed the example on free Glitch hosting: https://glitch.com/edit/#!/merciful-regal-soursop from the GitHub repository: send-gravity-from-server-to-client-box2d-wasm-js The client contains only one main.cpp file. It outputs the following information to the console:

connected
"{\"action\":\"scGravity\",\"data\":\"{\\\"x\\\":0,\\\"y\\\":-3}\"}"

You should download OpenSSL to run the following example on Android. Open the following window in Qt Creator (Edit > Preferences... > Devices > Android):

Add the following path to your pro-file:

How to set up PyOpenAL

PyOpenAL (released Dec 17, 2019): https://pypi.org/project/PyOpenAL/

pip install PyOpenAL

You can use original OpenAL API but PyOpenAL has a helpful wrapper functions. If your audio file plays with problems try to open it in the Audacity and export it with Encoding: Signed 16-bit PCM:

Custom OpenGL button for WebAssembly and Android

You cannot make the standard Qt button for WebAssembly because of this bug: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-120651 (you can use the patch from the "Gerrit Reviews") But OpenGL allows to make custom GUI elements.

WebAssembly demo on free Netlify hosting (QOpenGLWindow)

QOpenGLWindow works on Android 7.1.2 in the mobile browser without problems. You can find a lot of GUI game assets on itch: https://itch.io/game-assets/tag-gui I use the following GUI game asset in this demo: https://wenrexa.itch.io/holoui I have used Free Texture Packer to pack to button textures to one texture + json-file. Text was added in GIMP.

Rotate a 3D vector around X, Y, Z axes

In my example, three vectors are rotated 10 degrees around the X, Y and Z axes:

Rotate the vector (0.f, 0.f, 1.f) 10 degrees around the X axis. Output: (0, -0.173648, 0.984808)
Rotate the vector (1.f, 0.f, 0.f) 10 degrees around the Y axis. Output: (0.984808, 0, -0.173648)
Rotate the vector (0.f, 1.f, 0.f) 10 degrees around the Z axis. Output: (-0.173648, 0.984808, 0)

I have found two solutions how I can make the first person movement in the browser. Qt doesn't allow it because it is impossible to call emscripten_request_pointerlock() from Qt application: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-126513

The first solution is to use pure WebGL and Ammo.js: Click to run a demo in the browser

The second solution is to use SDL3, Emscripten, and Bullet Physics: Click to run a demo in the browser

The demo allows to move with first person and third person view:

Baked shadows and textures using SDL3, Emscripten, OpenGL ES 2.0, Bullet Physics, and C++
