343omp

343omp is a software development kit (SDK) created by Microsoft for the development of first-person shooter games. It is an open-source project, released under the MIT License, and is designed to be a successor to the XNA framework. The SDK is named after the 343 Industries studio, which is known for developing the Halo series of games.

The 343omp SDK is built on top of the DirectX 12 API and is designed to provide a modern, efficient, and flexible platform for game development. It includes a range of tools and libraries for tasks such as graphics rendering, audio processing, and input handling. The SDK is designed to be cross-platform, supporting both Windows and Xbox platforms.

One of the key features of 343omp is its use of the SLAM (Scalable Lighting and Materials) engine, which is designed to provide high-quality lighting and materials in real-time. The engine is also designed to be efficient, with optimizations for both CPU and GPU processing.

The 343omp SDK is designed to be easy to use, with a range of tutorials and documentation available to help developers get started. It is also designed to be extensible, with support for custom shaders and effects.

The 343omp SDK has been used to develop a range of games, including the open-source game "Chess" and the indie game "The Outer Worlds: Echoes of Mankind". The SDK is also used in educational settings, with universities and colleges using it to teach game development.

The 343omp SDK is an active project, with regular updates and improvements being made. The project is hosted on GitHub, with a community of developers contributing to its development. The SDK is also supported by Microsoft, with technical support and resources available to help developers get the most out of the platform.
