TD as Game Engine, Part 1: Structure

A series of tutorials diving into a very large project (over 6000 operators), in which TouchDesigner is used to create a first-person game-like experience for installation and performance contexts. Part 1 gives an overview of the project and the various topics that I hope to cover in the series, including:
– First Person Camera (FPC) input and location control
– Zone Tracking and location-based triggering
– Audio mixing
– Handling depth with Render and Renderpass
– Autostart and time for long-term installation
– Map view
– Demo mode and sleep mode
– Using 3D scan assets
