sorry, i don't have any answer : i did not spend much time working with
geometry shader.
I'll have to find a good documentation first!

Hello,
I am working on this small patch and would like to repeat a geo (square)
several times but i am limited to 42 times.
Do you know why ?
it's strange, but i have the same limitation.
42 is the answer.
;-)
OK :)
It seems this number depends if i pass the varying variable gl_Color to
the fragment shader, right ?
Because i can draw my square 85 times without this variable in the
fragment shader (gl_FragColor=vec4(1.0,1.0,1.0,1.0) instead of
gl_FragColor=gl_Color).
But what else ? How can i determine this value (42 or 85) with the
specifications of my GPU ?
I thought it would be possible to use shader to draw much more geos with
this method (with an equation in this shader), but i was wrong.
So i have to draw a 'curve' with vertices (with something like [polygon]
or with [GEMglVertex3f]) and then apply a geometry shader ? This is not
very easy if i have 100 vertices to define ! :)
I hope that i miss something.
I will dig tomorrow.
Thanx.
