Hi all,
I know that this may be a big ask and a little long winded:
I am trying to learn OpenGL (using the OpenGL SuperBible 4th Edition).
For a learning project I aim to get the Stanford Bunny appearing in a
QC custom patch.
To this end, I have dissected the following sample code:
FBOBunnies
and isolated the code that renders the (non fbo) stanford bunny and
cleared the project of all other code. This was useful to deconstruct
the example and separate the glut from the gl etc. I've been learning
obj-c and cocoa for a couple of years and don't really come from a C
background.
Then: I dissected:
GLSquarePlugin
identified the spot where the quad is drawn (!) and thought I might be
able to mash up the code.
I can see the results of a glClear!
Currently, I lack the knowledge / experience to know how the magic
glCallList(dlist[DLIST_BUNNY]) renders the model data and whether
calling C functions happens seemlessly in an obj-c context.
dlist[DLIST_BUNNY] = GenStanfordBunnySolidList();
glEndList();
glCallList(dlist[DLIST_BUNNY]);
I may also be missing something basic in the opengl setup or a glFlush
or something else to draw to the screen.
With the stanford bunny amendments, the QC custom patch, builds with
no errors - but I guess I haven't got the model drawing code right.
The project attachment was declined by the listserv so I put it here: <http://ellington.tvu.ac.uk/downloads/GLSquare_Model_Import.zip
>
I thought if I could get model data rendering, I may be a short step
away from constructing an OBJ importer! ;-)
Or at least having a QC bunny to play with.
I'll happily share any projects and material I've got so far, should
they help anyone else.
But any hints would be great.
Kind regards, Ian
