Bloodshed Dev-C++ is a full-featured Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the C/C++ programming language. It uses Mingw port of GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) as it’s compiler. Dev-C++ can also be used in combination with Cygwin or any other GCC based compiler. Here is a short tutorial that was pointed to me to setup Dev C++ … Read more
The updated version of GLSL tutorial. Only the core version will be dealt in this tutorial. The tutorial is, and will be in the near future, in construction. I don’t plan to close it, at least in the near future, unless a new version of OpenGL changes everything again. I’ll be adding content from time … Read more
Very Simple OpenGL Information Lib – OpenGL has a rich set of functions to query its state. It is possible to get information on just about anything, from which shaders are attached to a program, to the values of uniforms, or the properties of the textures currently bound. However, it is also true, that to … Read more
Two more libs are available in the VS*L framework. With these new additions it is possible to use Assimp to load 3D models, and render them with core OpenGL. The libs store the meshes in VAOs, and use VSShaderLib and VSMathLib to simplify the rendering with shaders with almost any uniform variable configuration.
VSML has been renamed to VSMathLib. Too many libs in the pipeline to keep naming them with a single letter 🙂 The M stood for Matrix, yet as now the library also contains vector operations, I think the new name fits better with the content. Another addition is the availability of the normal and projection-view-model … Read more
Shaders are the core of the rendering process. OpenGL core profile requires us to provide our own shaders, no more fixed function. Using shaders means more flexibility, but it also implies more work. This is where this lib steps in. VSShaderLib was designed to make our life easier. It allows to create programs, load shaders … Read more
