I have had a terrain generation algorithm for a while and have had a lot of success with it. However when I decided to start work on Level of Detail (Has not been implemented), I started to notice that my terrain would begin to draw underneath itself as it got larger (when it gets to around 257 by 257). I'm not too sure why it starts to do this however I have a feeling its either due to me converting the 2d vector into a 1d or when i generate my indices but i am not 100 percent. If someone could have a look that would be amazing

I am trying to draw a 3D cylinder by LWJGL,
and i am trying to generate the vertices, indices and textCoordinate
and storing them in arrays
, but i am stuck how to calculate the size of the vertices, indices and textCoordinate arrays...etc.
anyone knows how i can do it please:
Here the snippet of the code:

As httpdigest said:
you know how many iterations every loop performs and you know how
many increments/additions you do per each array. Should be very simple
math now.
I'm trying to render a terrain using directx 11 and applying a heightmap to it.
I load the heightmap then I copy it to a integer vector, then for each vertex position I assign the Y position of that vertex to the heightmap value, but the terrain is completely destroyed and distorted. When I remove the calculation on the Y axis, I get a flat grid and no problem.
bool cGrid::readRawFile(std::string fileName, int m, int n)
{
// A height for each vertex
std::vector<BYTE> in(m*n);
std::ifstream inFile(fileName.c_str(), std::ios_base::binary);
if (!inFile)
return false;
inFile.read(
(char*)&in[0], // buffer
in.size());// number of bytes to read into buffer
inFile.close();
// copy BYTE vector to int vector
m_heightmap.resize(n*m);
for (int i = 0; i < in.size(); i++)
m_heightmap[i] = in[i];
return true;
}
for (size_t i = 0; i<m_Mesh.m_Vertices.size(); ++i)
{
XMFLOAT3 p = m_Mesh.m_Vertices[i].Position;
p.y = (float)m_heightmap[i]*0.5f;
m_Mesh.m_Vertices[i].Position = p;
}

I would use unsigned char instead of BYTE when defining std::vector<BYTE> in(m*n) since it isn't a part of the C standard library so it is system dependent.
Also use a cast on this line
in.size());// number of bytes to read into buffer
to the actual parameter type of ifstream::read which is std::streamsize.
Like this:
(std::streamsize)in.size());// number of bytes to read into buffer
Since you're working with an 8-bit height map you should perhaps not just copy the value from the RAW file into your height map like this:
for (int i = 0; i < in.size(); i++)
m_heightmap[i] = in[i];
Since each height map value is represented by an 8-bit integer you could try dividing the height map value as well as multiply it with some scale modifier. This would make it more convenient if you want to test your way to some good values. Purely for visual purposes...
for (int i = 0; i < in.size(); i++)
m_heightmap[i] = (float)( in[i] / 255.0f ) * scaleModifier;
I'm trying to make a grid of triangles for a terrain generation project in DirectX 11, but when it gets drawn to the screen it draws in all three axis, instead of just the x and z.
I do get the correct amount of vertices and indices, but in the vector of indices it has a size of 972, the first 486 of them are set to 0 instead of the actual values.
I was wondering if I could get some clarification on whether I was setting the vertex/index buffers correctly.
Below is an example for a 10 by 10 grid.

You write resize, so the vector is resized, and then you add more indices with pushback. I think you want to reserve memory "reserve" and add them with pushback.
Also i would recommend to use a pointer to the first value, instead of a pointer to the vector
you:
InitData.pSysMem = &indices;
better:
InitData.pSysMem = &indices[0];
Buffer initialization seems to be ok.
Good luck
I'm looking for a good way to draw cylinder on opengl, i tried to draw multiple circles
for (GLuint m = 0; m <= segments; ++m) {
for (GLuint n = 0; n <= segments; ++n) {
GLfloat const t = 2 * M_PI * (float) n / (float) segments;
//position
points[num++] = x + sin(t) * r;
points[num++] = .0005 * m;
points[num++] = y + cos(t) * r;
//color
points[num++] = 1;
points[num++] = 1;
points[num++] = 1;
//texture
points[num++] = sin(t) * 0.5 + 0.5;
points[num++] = cos(t) * 0.5 + 0.5;
}
}
and on display function
GLuint pointer = 0;
for (GLuint i = 0; i <= segments; ++i) {
glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, pointer, segments + 1);
pointer += segments + 1;
}
I'm asking if there is a direct way to draw this cylinder
drawing many discs one on top of the other is too slow (unless you really want to draw the cylinder as slices of discs)
You should just draw the sides of the cylinder. For example a quad mesh would be
// for (GLuint m = 0; m <= segments; ++m)
float const bottom = .0005f * 0.f;
float const top = .0005f * (segments-1.f);
for(GLuint n = 0; n <= segments; ++n)
{
GLfloat const t0 = 2 * M_PI * (float)n / (float)segments;
GLfloat const t1 = 2 * M_PI * (float)(n+1) / (float)segments;
//quad vertex 0
points[num++] = x + sin(t0) * r;
points[num++] = bottom;
points[num++] = y + cos(t0) * r;
//quad vertex 1
points[num++] = x + sin(t1) * r;
points[num++] = bottom;
points[num++] = y + cos(t1) * r;
//quad vertex 2
points[num++] = x + sin(t1) * r;
points[num++] = top;
points[num++] = y + cos(t1) * r;
//quad vertex 3
points[num++] = x + sin(t0) * r;
points[num++] = top;
points[num++] = y + cos(t0) * r;
}
You can add 2 disks (the bases) to close the cylinder.
You can reduce fetching vertices form memory using a vertex+index buffer.
In new versions of OGL you can eliminate vertex memory read by indexing the mesh using gl_VertexID
When I draw terrain like this - it works normal
void Terrain::RenderLandscape()
{
int x, y;
int Index = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < MapSize-1; i++)
{
Index = 0;
for (int j = 0;j < MapSize-1; j++)
{
x = j * Zoom;
y = i * Zoom;
TextureMap[Index+0][0]= j * TextureBit;
TextureMap[Index+0][1]= i * TextureBit;
TextureMap[Index+1][0]= j * TextureBit;
TextureMap[Index+1][1]= (i+1) * TextureBit;
VertexMap[Index+0][2] = HeightMap[j][i];
VertexMap[Index+1][2] = HeightMap[j][i+1];
VertexMap[Index+0][0] = x;
VertexMap[Index+0][1] = y;
VertexMap[Index+1][0] = x;
VertexMap[Index+1][1] = y+Zoom;
Index += 2;
}
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, Index, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, Indices);
}
}
But when I move loops to another method and leave in RenderLandscape
void Terrain::RenderLandscape()
{
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 512, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, Indices);
}
Where 512 - size of Indices array - It shows only black screen without terrain.
What is the problem?
I move loops to method which is called before renderLandscape. There I initialize vertex, normals, texture arrays. Method init.
glEnableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY);
glVertexPointer (3, GL_FLOAT, 0, VertexMap);
glEnableClientState(GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);
glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 0, TextureMap);
glEnableClientState(GL_NORMAL_ARRAY);
glNormalPointer(GL_FLOAT,0, NormalMap);
for (int Row = 0; Row < MapSize*2; Row++)
{
Indices[Row] = Row;
}
int x, y;
int Index = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < MapSize-1; i++)
{
Index = 0;
for (int j = 0;j < MapSize-1; j++)
{
x = j * Zoom;
y = i * Zoom;
TextureMap[Index+0][0]= j * TextureBit;
TextureMap[Index+0][1]= i * TextureBit;
TextureMap[Index+1][0]= j * TextureBit;
TextureMap[Index+1][1]= (i+1) * TextureBit;
VertexMap[Index+0][2] = HeightMap[j][i];
VertexMap[Index+1][2] = HeightMap[j][i+1];
VertexMap[Index+0][0] = x;
VertexMap[Index+0][1] = y;
VertexMap[Index+1][0] = x;
VertexMap[Index+1][1] = y+Zoom;
Index += 2;
}
}
Index = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < MapSize - 1; i++)
{
Index = 0;
for (int j = 0;j < MapSize-1; j++)
{
CVector3 vTriangle[] = { CVector3(VertexMap[Index + 0]),
CVector3(VertexMap[Index + 1]),
CVector3(VertexMap[Index + 2]) };
CVector3 normal = Normal(vTriangle);
NormalMap[Index + 0][0] = normal.x;
NormalMap[Index + 0][1] = normal.y;
NormalMap[Index + 0][2] = normal.z;
NormalMap[Index + 1][0] = normal.x;
NormalMap[Index + 1][1] = normal.y;
NormalMap[Index + 1][2] = normal.z;
NormalMap[Index + 2][0] = normal.x;
NormalMap[Index + 2][1] = normal.y;
NormalMap[Index + 2][2] = normal.z;
Index += 3;
}
}
So it works like this
1) I initialize opengl and create terrain object.
........
landscape.Init();
glutPassiveMotionFunc(MousePassive);
glutIdleFunc(draw)
........
2) in method draw I call renderLandscape method
glPushMatrix();
glTranslatef(-20, 0, 0);
glScalef(0.01, 0.01, 0.01);
glRotatef(90, 1, 0, 0);
landscape.RenderLandscape();
glPopMatrix();
