How to correctly approximate a sphere ( collisson sphere ) to an object, say cube? Simple answers now. As the title asks, how is this done 'correctly' in openGL? Give a generic answer that applies to any object, to save time. Give a specific exemplification if you can.

Is there any way for extremely efficient collission detection.? I would like to know if there is a relatively simple means to perform extremely efficient collision detection. Tired of seeing 3d objects overlapping other 3d objects now.

Azimuth + Depth + Elevation Rotation Issue!!! :( Okay, say I have a grid: Uploaded with ImageShack.us And I want to rotate one square in this manner: Uploaded with ImageShack.us I have actually done this already, but it's not exactly correct. I am working on demo and ne...

Real Reflection Question So, I and I just decided to learn reflection, via openGL's powerful stencil buffer functionality. B4 u leave, check out the issue i have bottom the post, and download my little reflection test! controls are on screen: http://www.mediafire.c...

Ghetto 'Slums of Jamaican Society' Ghetto 'Slums of Society' hits GameDeV!! Hi, I'm Jamaican. I am a single sole lonely 19 yr old developer who has about 3 months ( really 3 good weeks ) of openGL behind his name. Things that are possible in Ghetto for now: -terrain ( sigh ) ...

Real Time Damage for non-mathematicians and mathematicians alike..... An idea come to I... real time damage. Further more, the solution involved no math...( basic rotation and subtraction ) I decided to draft up this idea, don't know if it's valid...I think my writing is sufficiently legible: Uploaded with Imag...

Terrain Issue What is the fastest method to tesselate terrain? Uses 'stencil shade/blend technique' to simulate lighting per vertex ( my little hack ) Sigh..I'm begginner, you'll have to endure the eys sore that is my terrain.:) uses heightmap only. ve...

Open World Gta iv inspired, but 100% original game conception Before you read, yes, I am Jamaican. No we don't live in huts, and we have 4G here too. Mind my insurmountably low level of English usage throughout post, due to the factum that I'm lethargic. In a nutshell, one could say I'm an openwolrd 'm...

FreeImage Issue I fixed the image lading error, never mind. What i realized, was that in my image loader, bpp, pr bit depth was wrong. When I modified img loading code to a .png loader instead from .bmp loader, forgot to change the GL_RGB bit in glTexImage2D ( )...

OpenGL doesn't do these kinds of things for you, it just draws meshes that you give it. Anyway, what I would do in your case is just pick a poi...

One big dynamic VBO, or multiple small static ones? One big VBO is better. According to Eskil Steenberg, standalone super programmer, single VBO implementation is sufficeint. I might be mistaken.

Azimuth + Depth + Elevation Rotation Issue!!! :( Here are the basic rules that can be derived logically from thought: Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us The diagonals need tweaking. That is solved and the other components of CTED can begin.

Is there any way for extremely efficient collission detection.? @spinningcube Your username is the answer to all our scientific / computer issues. That and the triangle.

Azimuth + Depth + Elevation Rotation Issue!!! :( They type of calculation will have to be geared towards two natures, direction and acceleration based. Direction would involve the 'rotative' behaviors that the face would adopt. Acceleration will be the speed or time in which this 'rotative' manner...

Is there any way for extremely efficient collission detection.? I think I might have came up with an extremely simple solution. This involves sphere bounded method though. Simple, but if moulded and ingeniously implemented, deep calculus II is avoided. Lol, a simple thing like combined radii of two objects...
