LOLs, its really trippy... It only takes 2 for loops and whole bunch of rectangles... Its so easy to make something cool looking :lol:
I used SDL for the windowing, you can vaguely see the cube


what really surprises me is that it only uses like 4264 k of ram... Does not higher or lower.

Lmao! That's cool.

How the hell did you do that concept wise?

At a random guess, I assume you have a huge rectangle split up into really small ones, you are changing the Z depth of all the mini-rectangles to a random height relative to the object. Then your rotating the main object.

The only thing I can't explain is the uniform colour over the main rectangle, but I barely know OGL so...

I was just playing around with changing the z coordinates of the rectacngles and ended up with that, putting random z coordinates

Lol, that's pretty funky, it does kinda make me dizzy though!

Can't see it:
"Couldn't set 1440x900x8 video mode: No video mode large enough for 1440x900n"
That's the stderr.txt output.

(integrated video sucks lol)

Doh! Never thought about screen resolution, I just made it optimized for my scree, which is an awkward res... BRB

Eh, its very simple, nothing compared to your engine, its like just 2 for loops, I am prototyping for this project I am doing.

Hey, do you mind if I look at the code? I don't care about what you did so much. The thing is, I've never been able to get an OpenGL app run on my computer. It always seems to get an Access Violation... but somehow, yours just ran on my comp...

So I'm just curious, because maybe now I can get OGL to work...
