Re: OpenGL texture disappearing when window is resized

I'm not sure about your disappearing texture, your resize seems to be ok. Your texturing is wrong, however. The last 2 texCoords should be in the reverse order (according to the vertices you have defined). Does the texture disappear instantly or gradually? Thanks for catching that for me. And the t...

OpenGL texture disappearing when window is resized

I have a small tile rendered on the top left corner of my window and whenever I try to make the window longer vertically, the texture starts to disappear. This only occurs when I stretch the screen vertically and stretching the screen horizontally works fine. I used the search feature here in the fo...

Re: Starting on electrical projects

As much as I don't think breadboarding has anything to do with programming, we can't just open up an entire new forum category for all two of us who do this kind of stuff... I do hope that some day when we introduce more of this into our videos and feature more of it on the site, we'll have enough ...

Re: Blade Brothers Engine: Creating my first 2D Game Engine

I'm using Qt because I want to create a level editor where someone else can use it to design levels without having to touch code or know how to code. The UI of your level editor is almost exactly what I am trying to create. The difficulty I am having is I am not sure how to be able to display the c...

Re: Starting on electrical projects

Dude, you totally don't need to buy a new one. Even if you didn't have a single rail, you could still make it work. They're commonly used for ground/VCC inputs. If you notice the diagram, the +5V and the GND pins are both going to the bottom rails. Then both of the bottom rails are being wired to t...

Okay so from now on I should always have them in every program? And how come my C++ book does not make me put it?

Why does SDL & OpenGL main have parameters

As most of you know the main looks like this: int main(int argc, char* argv[] ) { } I didn't even know you can have parameters in the main function so when would you want to have parameters in your main function? Also can someone explain why these libraries' main functions have parameters when they ...

The Titanium does cost more but I guess it comes with a usb port if u wanna code some of your programs on it. Which ones have you guys used? I ...
