How would we test it? Is it a compiler?

I learned it over Christmas. As for making the window, I copy and paste the first blocks before the loop. For my purposes, it's always the same. All you are doing is telling openGL "I want a screen that does 3d graphics, is this wide and this tall, and can do some really fancy math." The m...

At first I thought OpenGL was too hard. But I opened up lesson 5 of the NeHe tutorials, read it, copied and pasted the first big chunk of code onto a new source for me. #include once "GL/gl.bi" #include once "GL/glu.bi" screen 18,16,,2 'FB screen glViewport 0,0,640,480 'screen mo...

#include once "GL/gl.bi"
#include once "GL/glu.bi"

That's what I do. I just learned how to use OpenGL.

I fixed most of it. But my periphrial rotation still isn't very good.

Do we need a Linux to test? I've got a Dell computer.

Every time I rotate into or out of the screen, nearly everything goes haywire. But the same rotations in the XY plane goes fine.

Can somebody reillistrate rotations through the Z-axis?

And also, I normally have X and Y values in the hundreds, but Z values are around 1 and 2.

You can use pieces of numbers. Lets say variable type Byt is 0 through 100. In decimal, you can use place-values for separate numbers, ie 43 can be 4 and 3. Binary would be something like 13 is 3 and 1 (1101:11 01). You can break up numbers into bits. But to manipulate the bits themselves is another...

100,000? Then I guess I'm pretty safe.

Thanks for Exit .

That might be a problem then . Well, what would be a ballpark number for a somewhat slower than average computer? 1000?

Here's the main pipeline I've drafted up: 'main game engine order: '1)draw sky '2)draw ground '3)draw objects and people '5)draw HUD '4)Check for combat and actions '5)AI, movement, attack, and actions '6)move player if player moves '7)if player is alive and doesn't quit, then loop again 'main menu:...

It stopped working '

I've flipped around the the signs and it does the same thing.

What is that? Displaying only the front part of a 3d object, instead of the whole thing. I've just been testing on tetrahedrons. It doesn't help that half of it is out of the screen. But once in a while I get a beautiful one, fully culled. Right now I'm just working with wireframes, and not filling...

Tips? Help? I've got the concepts down. But the code doesn't. I don't want actual code; I want different methods, on a mathematical and conceptual level.

Nodtveidt, you're mean . You're making me jealeous. I've made only four games; my largest source code is only 10K. And it has more bugs than I have fingers.

I'm just joking. Well, not about my 4 games.

Then do what I do, stick with an old FB version. They're good.

After you turn it in - if you want - you can post the code and we'll help show you better techniques using the program as a guide. And debug it.

I don't know how to use html. Thanks. I like the Just Basic page.

At first, I was looking for somebody to help me write it, now after meeting you Burger, you completely turn me away from it. If learning QB ever turns me into somebody like you, it's not worth it :-) PS - I finally got it to work, thanks to everybody else :-) :lol: Chill 8) . If you think Burger is...

I haven't decided which to send where. It's between menus and triangle sweeping.
