Elysian Shadows

I renamed the functions in my test program and it ran well, I renamed them back to what they were before and made the function pointers static and it also worked. Thanks! It always seems to be something really small that trips me up :oops: You're welcome! If you don't know what the static keyword d...

I am currently working on the font system for my game's engine, and I've come up with this great design that gives me great frame rates and a shitload of flexibility. However, there is some optimization that I think could be done with my rendering code, and I've come up against a bit of a snag in ge...

init = initFunc; It would appear that init is a variable somewhere in your library, yes? Like this: void (*init)(void); But you have another symbol in main.c called init... void init() { } I don't use shared libraries all that often myself (I prefer static libraries for a number of reasons), so I m...

If I'm understanding the question properly, you want (0,0) to be the top-left corner, and (w,h) to be the bottom-right corner, correct? To do that, you would use this code: glViewport(0, 0, width, height); glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); glLoadIdentity(); glOrtho(0.0, width, height, 0.0, -1.0, 1.0); gl...

I rewrote some of my code to be like yours and it still had the same issue. I'm thinking it might be an issue with my texture? I don't see how that could be though, I literally just saved a .PNG like I always do... Edit* I tried using the texture you supplied and it's the same deal, NOTHING will di...

I'm pretty much stumped. The only thing I can think of is perhaps an issue with your texture. I put together a quick test to see if I could replicate the issue, but I could not. Here is the code I used: #include "SDL/SDL.h" #include "SDL/SDL_opengl.h" #ifdef __APPLE__ # include &...

I've added those lines, and tried your suggestions and it's still the same thing, nothing draws. Also, when I remove the line you said it ends up not loading the textures ( the quads show up as white with no texture ), so that doesn't fix the BGR problem. To be perfectly clear my issue is, that I w...

My mistake. Add this before your call to SDL_SetVideoMode(): SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_RED_SIZE, 8); SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_GREEN_SIZE, 8); SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_BLUE_SIZE, 8); SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_ALPHA_SIZE, 8); SDL doesn't always set you up with an alpha channel when you create an...

Assuming that what you want is for your textures to have translucent pixels, this bit glAlphaFunc( GL_GREATER, 0.1f ); glEnable( GL_ALPHA_TEST ); should be glBlendFunc( GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA ); glEnable( GL_BLEND ); See the documentation for glAlphaFunc() and glBlendFunc() if you're i...

char *cmd = (char *)malloc(sizeof(char) * (strlen("gcc -std=c99 ") + strlen(fileName) + 1)); // The sizeof(char) may look a little redundant, but I have a habit of writing my C-style allocations to be ready to upgrade to wide characters with just a few project-wide find/replaces. sprintf(...

The problem lies in this line: system(strcat("gcc -std=c99 ", fileName)); I think you're missing some of the basic concepts of C strings, or maybe just C memory management. What's going on here is something like this: When you compile this file, the compiler will create a 14-byte space in ...

Borderlands.

What an abrupt ending.

Thanks.

It really depends on what you want. Here's a list of some common formats: Direct3D .X - This format is pretty good. It's easy to understand (and therefore easy to load), has both an ASCII and binary format, and has the main features you might want, including animations and materials. X files can be ...
