OpenGL Texture Tutorial home: e-mail: craterz@hotmail.com Texture Mapping Gregory Pierce in an e-mail requested information on texture mapping... here ya go! Nowadays, textures are pretty much standard as far as games go. OpenGL was designed with this in mind. Unlike the cruel and unusual DirectX API, creating textures is not a form of cruel and unusual punishment.
The only thing you need be concerned with is setting up some texture parameters and environment. Texture Names To start things off, we first need a texture name. GLuint texture; // allocate a texture name glGenTextures( 1, &texture ); Now that we have our texture name, we can switch between different textures we want using the function glBindTxeture. // select our current texture glBindTexture( GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture ); Texture Parameters Now we can begin to work on our current texture. Next, we have four texture parameters we need to setup. Texture Image and Mipmaps Texture Sample. Blender 3D: Noob to Pro - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks.

Basic Graphics Programming With The Xlib Library. [ LUPG Home ] [ Tutorials ] [ Related Material ] [ Essays ] [ Project Ideas ] [ Send Comments ] v1.0 Preface This tutorial is the first in a series of "would-be" tutorials about graphical programming in the X window environment. By itself, it is useless. After reading this tutorial, one would be able to write very simple graphical programs, but not programs with a descent user interface.
The Client And Server Model Of The X Window System The X window system was developed with one major goal - flexibility. This model is the complete opposite of what one is used to when dealing with clients and servers. The whole session is carried out using the X message protocol. GUI programming - the Asynchronous Programming Model Unlike conventional computer programs, that carry some serial nature, a GUI program usually uses an asynchronous programming model, also known as "event-driven programming". So the way a GUI program looks is something like that: Perform initialization routines.
