Thread: im newbie to opengl, help plz

Well it would help if you showed up the function definitions because they are by no means standard.

It would've been awesome if they were though

[edit]
You should've read a little further. Those lines were just pseudocode. The real example is a bit further down:

Code:

#include <GL/gl.h>
#include "aux.h"

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    auxInitDisplayMode (AUX_SINGLE | AUX_RGBA);
    auxInitPosition (0, 0, 500, 500);
    auxInitWindow (argv[0]);

    glClearColor (0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
    glColor3f(1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
    glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
    glLoadIdentity();
    glOrtho(-1.0, 1.0, -1.0, 1.0, -1.0, 1.0);
    glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
            glVertex2f(-0.5, -0.5);
            glVertex2f(-0.5, 0.5);
            glVertex2f(0.5, 0.5);
            glVertex2f(0.5, -0.5);
    glEnd();
    glFlush();

    sleep(10);
}

Code:

int main() {
   createthebestgameeverplease();

   return 0;
}

Haha, thats some great stuff. Don't get discouraged at the ammount of work you actually have to do. The cool thing about being new to ogl is that you basically just have to learn what a function does and how to manipulate it.......putting it where it should go is the fun part.

Code:

int main(){

correctmeifIamwrongIamanOGLnewbto();
return (corrections);
};
