I just started some opengl programming, it seems really ...humm... nice.<br> <IMG SRC="smileys/smile.gif"><br> <br> So is there any1 that I could ask if I have questions?
I like OpenGL, though i suck at it <IMG SRC="smileys/dead.gif"><br> Can point you towards a few useful resources though if you're interested.
Kewl I just bought an OpenGL book today, when I've finished reading it I'll surely have a bunch of questions <IMG SRC="smileys/biggrin.gif">
What is the name of the book? I'm trying to learn OpenGL also. Go to <A HREF="http://www.gamedev.net" TARGET=_blank>www.gamedev.net</A> and nehe.gamedev.net. That should help you out a lot.
I'm guessing that you'll want to look at all of the online documentation at <A HREF="http://www.opengl.org/developers/index.html," TARGET=_blank>http://www.opengl.org/developers/index.html,</A> too.
Damn, why didn't I remember this thread?!<br> <br> Ok, nehe.gamedev.net was one of the great sources...I also found:<br> <A HREF="http://www.gametutorials.com/Tutorials/OpenGL/OpenGL_Pg1.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.gametutorials.com/Tutorials/OpenGL/OpenGL_Pg1.htm</A><br> That's really cool, too.<br> <br> The only problem is: all that's in C++ <IMG SRC="smileys/smile.gif"><br> <br> The book I bought is called "Programming in OpenGL" <IMG SRC="smileys/biggrin.gif">

What's wrong with C++? Don't want to work with the most "standard" tool used by "average" mortals? <IMG SRC="smileys/wink.gif">
Nah, but why should I learn C++, while I can program in Delphi and Java and can do exactly the same things with these languages as well?<br> <br> And as I said: The OpenGL commands on C++ are the same as on Delphi.<br> <br> So I see no problem there, since I don't want to develop Doom3 or so <IMG SRC="smileys/smile.gif">
