34. Simple bounding sphere method Collision Detection (Stage One)

35. Collision detection between opponent and the UFO. Convert from 3D to 2D We apply conversion from world system (3D) to screen system (2D) to avoid depth checking Collision Detection (Stage One)

36. Collision detection between opponent and the UFO. convert Move the opponent No collision is not detected Position of opponent != position of UFO Collision Detection (Stage One)

37. Collision detection between opponent and the UFO. No collision is not detected Position of opponent != position of UFO collision is detected Position of opponent== position of UFO Collision Detection (Stage One)

38. Collision detection between opponent and the UFO Collision Detection (Stage One)

39. 3D STATE collision detection method Collision Detection (Stage Two)

41. Shooting 1.Move the opponent toward the target UFO. 2.Direct the bullet toward the opponent. 3.Bullet moves after setting its physical movement properties such as speed. 4.Copy the current bullet.

42. Particle System Particle system applications are around us, and can be seen in explosion, fog, smoke …etc.

43. Show explosion effect Particle System

44. Show explosion effect Set vector direction Particle System

45. Particle System Algorithm 1.Get the target object. 2.Get the polygons belonging to it. 3.Make the object’s polygons move in all directions, by computing random vectors (directions) for each polygon. The principle of computing these vectors is according to the spherical-coordinate specification. –Inside a for loop that is repeated by object's polygons number count. »An emitter defines a sphere as the flowing: »Theta = 2 * ∏ * RANDOM(); »Phi = 2 * ∏ * RANDOM(); »Random_vector. x = cos (Theta) * sin (Phi); »Random_vector. y = sin (Theta) * sin (Phi); »Random_vector. z = cos (Phi); »Set new speed, since Random_vector is only a normalized vector, so we have to multiply it with a true speed »Speed = 5 * (factor of computer speed) »Random_vector … *= speed;

46. 4. move the polygons, during each time, one step according to the random vector (direction) as well as scaling it, then render each step on the window to see the explosion effect. –For a certain number of time For each object's polygons –Move the polygon according to the corresponding random vector one step. –Scale the whole object, because the object contains the polygons –Render the image seen from the camera to the window, by using the built in 3DSTATE function (STATE_engen_render(…)) –The final step is to free the memory, and make the exploded UFO disappear, by using this statement: –Delete[] array; –STATE_object_set_event(object, 10, STATE_DELETE); Particle System Algorithm

50. Conversion of the location of UFO from the world coordinate system (xy-plane) to the local coordinates system (zy plane) of the radar. Y X Z Y X Z world coordinate system local coordinate system of radar convert

51. Conversion the location of UFO from the world coordinate system (xy-plane) to the local coordinates system (zy plane) of the radar. Y X Z Y X Z UFO in world coordinate system UFO in local coordinate system of radar Radar

53. Conversion is done through the following equations: Scaling factors Sx = (xr max –xr min) / xw max – xw min Sy = (yr max –yr min) / yw max – yw min Locations on radar Xr =xr min + (xw- xw min)* sx Yr =yr min +(yw – yw min) * sy Radar

60. Shows the time left for the player to achieve his mission. Using an MFC function called OnTimer( ) to count one second of time. Timer

61. Optional Features Adding movies and sounds. Adding simple animations.

62. Future work Use a more advanced game engine. Link two players through a network. Add advanced animation to certain objects. Add more stages with difficulty levels. Add more particle system effects. Add shadow for objects.

63. Conclusion We produced a uniquely new game in Arabic language in a timely manner. We applied all project requirements. Our knowledge had expanded in the programming field as we learned MFC. We learned how to work and cooperate with each other to achieve our goal.
