I need Point attenuation to produce space animations with shining particles, which look like stars. How can I achieve that effect without using Point attenuation? Do you mean that I should make small rectangular polygons with transparent textures instead? I have tried that before on M3G and it didn't look as good as Point attenuation.
Anti-Aliasing is a method of fooling the eye that a jagged edge is really smooth.Will that really be enough to get the same effect as Point attenuation? Could you please be more specific in which OpenGL technique I should use to make it work on HTC and LG? Isn't Point attenuation a part of the Android OpenGL standard? Shouldn't HTC and LG support it in that case? On Sep 27, 3:34 am, Indicator Veritatis <[email protected]> wrote: > Short answer: no. Longer: why do you need point attenuation?
