GLSL Beginner, Matrix Math, and Reflections

I'm new to GLSL and I'm trying to implement reflections using a render-to-texture (with FBO's) technique. Here is the source of my vertex shader:
varying vec3 LightDirection;
varying vec3 Normal;
void main()
{
Normal = normalize(gl_Norm... |

I'm currently writing an American Football game in C#(mono) using OpenTK for graphics. I've come to a place where my system of handling game logic has become cumbersome and this is making it hard to track down a few pesky bugs. Here is how my program... |

Vertex arrays for an OpenGL beginner

I guess you could say I've "seen the light"... [cool] ...because I decided to switch from managed DirectX for Windows, to OpenTK for Linux (which actually also supports windows).
Currently my application is using immediate mode for rendering and... |

Killer Combines

Ok, I'm going to take a stab in the dark and share a "brain wave" I had earlier today.
The working title is "Killer Combines" (Combines as in Combine Harvester)
The basic idea is as follows: You are challenged by some other farmers in your area to... |

Problem with calculating speed based on direction of travel

hi,
I'm in the process of finalizing a sailing game and I need help with my algorithm to calculate a ships speed based on its direction of travel relative to the wind. As it stands my code works like this;
If the ship is traveling with the w... |

Best way to optomize code for a large data set

Hi,
Im writing a small simulation game where i need to calculate realistic gravity between ~500 (and hopefully more) objects and, although it works, my current implementation is eating up my frame-rates (~8fps). I'd like to know if there is a better... |

ODE Collision Joint Problems
|
Everything looks OK. There are any number of things that could be making the simulation not work right. You could try not using softCFM for the contact points. For example:dContact contact;
contact.surface.mode = dContactBounce;
contact.surface.bou... |

ODE Collision Joint Problems
|
Do the boxes have a reasonable mass? You could try using dMassSetBoxTotal to distribute the mass throughout the box.
Also, what value are you using in dWorldStep? |

ODE Collision Joint Problems

I see that your flags argument in dCollide is 1. The Ode documentation says:
Quote:
flags specifies how contacts should be generated if the geoms touch.
The lower 16 bits of flags is an integer that specifies the maximum number of contact points t... |

GLSL Beginner, Matrix Math, and Reflections

Ah, well... I seem to have fixed my own problem. :)
I wasn't taking the w component of the projected texture coords into consideration. I actually found this solution in this post right here on GameDev.net.

ZCam?
|
Two questions that come to my mind:
1) What about shooting games? Or other games that require you to hold something?
2) Wouldn't your arms get tired after, say, 15 minutes of flicking your fingers in front of your face? |

feasability of a arcade machine.. no OS

I think it would be feasible but it would probably take ~2 times longer because not only do you have to develop a stable game, but you also have to develop a stable "kernel" of sorts. Not to mention writing a VGA graphics driver, sound driver, k... |
