Introduces a skysphere entity to the scene.
Creates the skysphere during application initialization and manages its visibility via Z-buffer enabling/disabling in the render system.
The skysphere is now an ECS entity.
The culling thread skips the skybox entity to avoid unnecessary calculations since it's always visible.
The position of the skybox is updated with the active camera.
Implements a shutdown mechanism for components and entities,
ensuring proper resource release and preventing memory leaks.
This change introduces a virtual `Shutdown` method to the
`Component` class, allowing derived components to release
specific resources when they are removed from an entity or
when the entity is destroyed. The `Entity` class now calls
the `Shutdown` method on all its components during its own
release process. The `EntityManager` now calls the
`release()` method when destroying an entity.
This enhancement ensures that resources, such as FMOD sound
objects and channels in the `AudioComponent`, are properly
released, preventing potential resource leaks and improving
the stability of the engine.
Adds serialization/deserialization to components,
allowing saving and loading of entity states.
Provides ImGui widgets for editing component properties,
improving editor usability.
Passes the D3D device and context to entities and
components enabling resource creation within components.
Initializes FMOD sound system within the application class and propagates it to the entity manager and entities. This allows for audio components to access and use the FMOD system for playing sounds.
Removes redundant FMOD system initialization from the audio component.
Adds a new audio component with support for loading, playing, pausing, stopping, and controlling audio properties such as volume, pan, pitch, and looping.
Implements spatialization using FMOD, enabling 3D audio effects based on object and camera positions. Includes file selection dialog and UI controls for audio properties.
Improves the scene editor by adding an inspector window to view and modify entity components.
Adds audio component support with basic playback controls integrated into the inspector.
Adds default audio files.
