XPBD Cloth Simulation

This repo is from my early C++ days and does not reflect my currently coding ability. Nevertheless, I believe that this still is a great program that I am proud of it to this day.

Cloth simulation based on XPBD paper. Made with:

• C++
• DirectX
• ImGui

Stretching constraints are solved using graph colouring with typical Gauss-Seidel method, while sheer and bending constraints are solved using Jacobi method.

Steering:

• Press mouse wheel to rotate around the centre.
• Scroll to zoom in/out

Result at 16k vertices (2 ss' glued together).

Building from source:
