OpenGL Depth Buffer not using z value - opengl

I have a QtOpenglWidget with OpenGL 3.3 running and attempting to do instance rendering, but my z-buffer will not work
Currently, I add the 3 test cubes in draw order of cube3, cube2, then cube1 and changing it shows it is just displaying the last cube drawn. I also know DEPTH_TEST is enabled as messing with glDepthFunc will just not show anything.
My init:
glEnable(GL_CULL_FACE);
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glClearDepth(1.0f);
glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL);
glClearColor(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
My Draw:
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
Vertex:
layout(location = 0) in highp vec3 position;
layout(location = 1) in highp mat4 modelToWorld;
uniform mat4 MVP;
out highp float DEPTH;
void main() {
gl_Position = MVP * modelToWorld * vec4(position, 1.0);
DEPTH = gl_Position.z / 20.0f;
}
Frag:
in highp float DEPTH;
out highp vec4 fColor;
void main() {
fColor = vec4(DEPTH, DEPTH, DEPTH,1.0);
}
EDIT
I am finding out this might be a QtWidget issue, The first thing being called in main is
QSurfaceFormat format;
format.setVersion(3, 3);
format.setDepthBufferSize(24);
format.setStencilBufferSize(8);
format.setProfile(QSurfaceFormat::CoreProfile);
QSurfaceFormat::setDefaultFormat(format);

After HOURS of debugging and referencing examples, I found the issue!
It was this line
void MyWidget::resizeGL(int width, int height) {
...
m_projection.perspective(45.0f, width / float(height), 0.0f, 1000.0f);
...
}
it should be
void MyWidget::resizeGL(int width, int height) {
...
m_projection.perspective(45.0f, width / float(height), 0.1f, 1000.0f);
...
}
Apparently setting my projection with a nearPlane to 0 causes this. I actually don't know WHY this occurs so please enlighten me in comments if you know
Note: this is the QMatrix4x4 class

How to Rotate a Quad

I'm trying to make a quad rotate around its center. I am using glm::rotate() and setting the quad to rotate on the z axis. However when I do this it gives this weird effect. The quad stretches and warps. It almost looks 3d but since I am rotating it around the z axis that shouldn't happen right?
Here's relevant code for context:
float rotation = 0.0f;
double prevTime = glfwGetTime();
while (!glfwWindowShouldClose(window))
{
GLCall(glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f));
GLCall(glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT));
updateInput(window);
shader.Use();
glUniform1f(xMov, x);
glUniform1f(yMov, y);
test.Bind();
double crntTime = glfwGetTime();
if (crntTime - prevTime >= 1 / 60)
{
rotation += 0.5f;
prevTime = crntTime;
}
glm::mat4 model = glm::mat4(1.0f);
model = glm::rotate(model, glm::radians(rotation), glm::vec3(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f));
int modelLoc = glGetUniformLocation(shader.id, "model");
glUniformMatrix4fv(modelLoc, 1, GL_FALSE, glm::value_ptr(model));
vao.Bind();
vBuffer1.Bind();
iBuffer1.Bind();
GLCall(glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, 6, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0));
glfwSwapBuffers(window);
glfwPollEvents();
}
Shader:
#version 440 core
layout(location = 0) in vec3 aPos;
layout(location = 1) in vec3 aColor;
layout(location = 2) in vec2 aTex;
out vec3 color;
out vec2 texCoord;
uniform float xMove;
uniform float yMove;
uniform mat4 model;
void main()
{
gl_Position = model * vec4(aPos.x + xMove, aPos.y + yMove, aPos.z, 1.0);
color = aColor;
texCoord = aTex;
}
Without you showing the graphical output it is hard to say.
Your first issue is, you are not rotating around the center, to rotate by the center you must, offset the quad so that its center is at 0,0. then rotate, then offset back to the original position, but you have this line:
gl_Position = model * vec4(aPos.x + xMove, aPos.y + yMove, aPos.z, 1.0);
Under the assumption that the quad as at the origin to begin with you are rotating it around the point (-xMove, -yMove).

OpenGL shadow mapping weirdness

I have been playing around with OpenGL and shaders and got myself into shadow mapping.
Trying to follow tutorials on the Internet (ogldev and learnopengl), got some unexpected results.
The issue is best described with few screenshots (I have added a static quad with depth framebuffer for debugging):
Somehow I managed to get shadows to be rendered on a ground quad once, with a static light (this commit). But the shadow pattern is, again, incorrect. I strongly suspect model transformation matrix calculaitons on this:
The way I render the scene is quite straightforward:
create the pipelines:
for mapping the shadows (filling the depth frame buffer)
for rendering the scene using the depth frame buffer
(extra) debugging one, rendering depth frame buffer to a static quad on a screen
fill the depth frame buffer: using the shadow mapping pipeline, render the scene from the light point, using orthographic projection
render the shaded scene: using the rendering pipeline and depth frame buffer bind as the first texture, render the scene from a camera point, using perspective projection
Seems like the algorithm in all those tutorials on shadow mapping out there. Yet, instead of a mouray effect (like in all of the tutorials), I get no shadow on the bottom plane whatsoever and weird artifacts (incorrect shadow mapping) on the 3D (chicken) model.
Interestingly enough, if I do not render (for both the shadow mapping and final rendering pass) the chicken model, the plane is lit with the same weird pattern:
I also had to remove any normal transformations from the fragment shader and disable face culling to make the ground plane lit. With front-face culling the plane does not appear in the shadow map (depth buffer).
I assume the following might be causing this issue:
wrong depth frame buffer setup (data format or texture parameters)
flipped depth frame buffer texture
wrong shadow calculations in rendering shaders
wrong light matrices (view & projection) setup
wrong matrix calculations in the rendering shaders (given the model transformation matrices for both chicken model and the quad contain both rotation and scaling)
Unfortunately, I ran out of ideas even on how to assess the above assumptions.
Looking for any help on the matter (also feel free to criticize any of my approaches, including C++, CMake, OpenGL and computer graphics).
The full solution source code is available on GitHub, but for convenience I have placed the heavily cut source code below.

As shameful as it might be, the issue was with the wrong texture being bound.
The globjects library that I use to have few nice(-r) abstractions over OpenGL actually does not provide a smart logic around texture binding (as I blindly assumed). So using just Texture::bind() and Texture::unbind() won't automagically keep track of how many textures have been bound and increment an index.
E.g. it does not behave (roughly) like this:
static int boundTextureIndex = -1;
void Texture::bind() {
glBindTexture(this->textureType, this->textureId);
glActivateTexture(GL_TEXTURE0 + (++boundTextureIndex));
}
void Texture::unbind() {
--boundTextureIndex;
}
So after changing the texture->bind() to texture->bindActive(0) followed by shaderProgram->setUniform("texture", 0), I finally got to the mouray effect and correct shadow mapping:
Full change is in this commit.

Shadow Mapping OpenGL shadow not always drawing, and drawing where the position of the light is

I have been trying to do basic Shadow Mapping in my custom Engine using LearnOpenGL as the source. The link for the exact tutorial can be found: here.
I have been debugging this bug for around two weeks, researching the internet, and even trying to wrap my head around this, but all I can say is that the shadow almost never appears, and when it appears it is where the light is Pos is terms of x and z. I tried to do everything exactly like in the tutorial around 10 times, I also tried to check this website for similar questions but for every way I found, it was not my case.
findings
In this Image(1) you can see that the shadow is not visible when the light is on top of it, but it is then visible on this Image (2) when the lightPos.x variable is around -4.5 or 4.5, this is so for the lightPos.z variable too. The shadow when appearing is being drawn where the lightPos is, where in the pictures it is circled by a red line.
I use multiple shaders, one for the light and shadow calculations (ShadowMapping) one for a basic depth mapping (ShadowMapGen)
Here is my ShadowMapping shader:

for(int y = -1; y <= 1; ++y)
{
float pcfDepth = texture(shadowMap, projCoords.xy + vec2(x, y) * texelSize).r;
shadow += currentDepth - bias > pcfDepth ? 1.0 : 0.0;
}
}
shadow /= 9.0;
// keep the shadow at 0.0 when outside the far_plane region of the light's frustum.

Depth Map Framebuffer Generation
This is how I generate my depth map/ shadow map texture in the constructor of my scene:
glGenFramebuffers(1, &depthMapFBO);
//Create depth texture
glGenTextures(1, &depthMap);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, depthMap);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT, SHADOW_WIDTH, SHADOW_HEIGHT, 0, GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT, GL_FLOAT, NULL); // Height and Width = 1024
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_CLAMP_TO_BORDER);
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_CLAMP_TO_BORDER);
float borderColor[] = { 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 };
glTexParameterfv(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_BORDER_COLOR, borderColor);
//Attach depth texture as FBO's depth buffer
glBindFramebuffer(GL_FRAMEBUFFER, depthMapFBO);
glFramebufferTexture2D(GL_FRAMEBUFFER, GL_DEPTH_ATTACHMENT, GL_TEXTURE_2D, depthMap, 0);
glDrawBuffer(GL_NONE);
glReadBuffer(GL_NONE);
glBindFramebuffer(GL_FRAMEBUFFER, 0);
Then in an Update() function that runs in the While loop of the engine I firstly do:
Render Objects from light's perspective
//Light Projection and view Matrix
m_lightProjection = glm::ortho(-10.0f, 10.0f, -10.0f, 10.0f, near_plane, far_plane);
m_lightView = glm::lookAt(lightPos, glm::vec3(0.0f), glm::vec3(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f));
//Calculate light matrix and send it.
m_lightSpaceMatrix = m_lightProjection * m_lightView;
TheShader::Instance()->SendUniformData("ShadowMapGen_lightSpaceMatrix", 1, GL_FALSE, m_lightSpaceMatrix);
//Render to Framebuffer depth Map
glViewport(0, 0, SHADOW_WIDTH, SHADOW_HEIGHT);
glBindFramebuffer(GL_FRAMEBUFFER, depthMapFBO);
glClear(GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
//Set current Shader to ShadowMapGen
m_floor.SetShader("ShadowMapGen");
m_moon.SetShader("ShadowMapGen");
//Send model Matrix to current Shader
m_floor.Draw();
m_moon.Draw();
//Set current Shader back to ShadowMapping
m_moon.SetShader("ShadowMapping");
m_floor.SetShader("ShadowMapping");
glBindFramebuffer(GL_FRAMEBUFFER, 0);
Render Objects from Camera's perspective
glViewport(0, 0, SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
//Update Camera and Send the view and projection matrices to the ShadowMapping shader
m_freeCamera->Update();
m_freeCamera->Draw();
//Send Light Pos
TheShader::Instance()->SendUniformData("ShadowMapping_lightPos", lightPos);
//Send LightSpaceMatrix
TheShader::Instance()->SendUniformData("ShadowMapping_lightSpaceMatrix", 1, GL_FALSE, m_lightSpaceMatrix);
//Activate Shadow Mapping texture
glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE1);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, depthMap);
//Send model Matrix to ShadowMapping shaders
m_moon.Draw();
m_floor.Draw();
I hope someone will see this, thank you for your time.
I tried to do everything exactly like in the tutorial around 10 times
Well, you seem to have missed at least one obvious thing:
m_lightSpaceMatrix = m_lightProjection * m_lightView;
So far, so good, but in your "ShadowMapGen" vertex shader, you wrote:
gl_Position = model * lightSpaceMatrix * vec4(vertexIn, 1.0);
So you end up with model * projection * view multiplication order, which does not make sense no matter which conventions you adhere to. Since the tutorial uses default GL conventions, you always need projection * view * model * vertex multiplication order, which the tutorial also correctly uses.

Deferred Rendering strange behaviour

I'm having a little trouble implementing a deferred rendering engine using OpenGL.
I can render to texture and all the datas are correct for the first pass (calculating albedo, normals and depth), but when it comes to calculate the textures for the lightning (emissive and specular) I'm having some troubles.
This is what I've got so far:
The problem is, as you might have guessed, is that sort of line showing some sort of division between my red and blue light.
Using NSight to see the history of a pixel right next to the line that should have been red (or blended with a blue light pixel), I can see this:
So the pixel IS actually getting colored by the red light, but then it goes back to blue, and I really can't understand why.
This is the code I use to do deferred drawing:
//
// Preparing albedo, normals and depth
//
GetGBuffer("PrepassBuffer")->BindAsRenderTarget();
Start(stage);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
glDepthMask(GL_TRUE);
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
DeferredPreparePass(stage, shadersManager->GetProgramFromName("deferred-prepare"));
Finish(stage);
//
// Peparing light emissive and specular textures
//
GetGBuffer("LightsBuffer")->BindAsRenderTarget();
Start(stage);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_ONE, GL_ONE);
DeferredPointPass(stage, shadersManager->GetProgramFromName("deferred-point"));
glCullFace(GL_BACK);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
Finish(stage);
//
// Final composition of the image
//
Start(stage);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
DeferredCombinePass(stage, shadersManager->GetProgramFromName("deferred-combine"));
Finish(stage);
This is the code I use to do the point light pass (DeferredPointPass function call above) (_pointLightMesh is a Icosahedron Sphere mesh)
for (ASizeT i = 0; i < nLights; i++)
{
AnimaLight* light = lightsManager->GetLight((AUint)i);
if (!light->IsPointLight())
continue;
AnimaVertex3f lPos = light->GetPosition();
AFloat range = light->GetRange();
AnimaMatrix m1, m2, m3;
m1.Translate(lPos);
m2.Scale(range, range, range, 1.0f);
m3 = m1 * m2;
float dist = (lPos - activeCamera->GetPosition()).Length();
if (dist < light->GetRange())
glCullFace(GL_FRONT);
else
glCullFace(GL_BACK);
program->UpdateLightProperies(light);
program->UpdateMeshProperies(_pointLightMesh, m3);
program->UpdateRenderingManagerProperies(this);
program->EnableInputs(_pointLightMesh);
glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, _pointLightMesh->GetIndexesBufferObject());
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, _pointLightMesh->GetFacesIndicesCount(), GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0);
program->DisableInputs();
}
And this is the shader I use to calculate my emissive and specular maps for the point lightn pass:
#version 150 core
in mat4 frag_inverseProjectionViewMatrix;
out vec4 FragColor[2];
uniform sampler2D REN_GB_PrepassBuffer_DepthMap;
uniform sampler2D REN_GB_PrepassBuffer_NormalMap;
uniform vec2 REN_InverseScreenSize;
uniform vec3 CAM_Position;
uniform float PTL_Range;
uniform vec3 PTL_Position;
uniform vec3 PTL_Color;
uniform float PTL_ConstantAttenuation;
uniform float PTL_LinearAttenuation;
uniform float PTL_ExponentAttenuation;
void main()
{
vec3 pos = vec3((gl_FragCoord.x * REN_InverseScreenSize.x), (gl_FragCoord.y * REN_InverseScreenSize.y), 0.0f);
pos.z = texture(REN_GB_PrepassBuffer_DepthMap, pos.xy).r;
vec3 normal = normalize(texture(REN_GB_PrepassBuffer_NormalMap, pos.xy).xyz * 2.0f - 1.0f);
vec4 clip = frag_inverseProjectionViewMatrix * vec4(pos * 2.0f - 1.0f, 1.0f);
pos = clip.xyz / clip.w;
float dist = length(PTL_Position - pos);
if(dist > PTL_Range)
{
discard;
}
float atten = (PTL_ConstantAttenuation + PTL_LinearAttenuation * dist + PTL_ExponentAttenuation * dist * dist + 0.00001);
vec3 incident = normalize(PTL_Position - pos);
vec3 viewDir = normalize(CAM_Position - pos);
vec3 halfDir = normalize(incident + viewDir);
float lambert = clamp(dot(incident, normal), 0.0f, 1.0f);
float rFactor = clamp(dot(halfDir, normal), 0.0f, 1.0f);
float sFactor = pow(rFactor, 33.0f);
FragColor[0] = vec4(PTL_Color * lambert / atten, 1.0f);
FragColor[1] = vec4(PTL_Color * sFactor / atten * 0.33f, 1.0f);
}
I hope someone has and idea of what's going on here, thanks in advance!
Ok I figured out what I was missing. I needed to disable depth test before doing the point light pass and the re-enable it to combine the final image.
My code for the deferred rendering function now looks like this (all the rest is still the same):
// Same as before
// ...
//
//
// Peparing light emissive and specular textures
//
GetGBuffer("LightsBuffer")->BindAsRenderTarget();
Start(stage);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_ONE, GL_ONE);
glDepthMask(GL_FALSE); // <---- this is what I was missing
DeferredPointPass(stage, shadersManager->GetProgramFromName("deferred-point"));
glCullFace(GL_BACK);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
glDepthMask(GL_TRUE); // <---- this is what I was missing
Finish(stage);
// Same as before
// ...

How do I get textures to work in OpenGL?

I'm using the tutorials on http://arcsynthesis.org/gltut/ to learn OpenGL, it's required, I have to use it. Mostly I want to apply the textures from Tutorial 15 onto objects in tutorial 7 (world with UBO).
For now it seemed like the textures only work when mipmaps are turned on. This comes with a downside: The only mipmap used is the one with an index of zero, and that's the 1 colored 1x1 pixel one. I tried setting the minimum level of a mipmap higher or turning off mipmaps entirely, but even that doesn't fix thing, because then everything turns pitch black. Now I'll list the most important parts of my program
EDIT: I guess I'll add more details...
The vertex shader has something like this:
#version 330
layout(location = 0) in vec4 position;
layout(location = 1) in vec4 color;
layout(location = 2) in vec3 normal;
//Added these later
layout(location = 5) in vec2 texCoord;
out vec2 colorCoord;
smooth out vec4 interpColor;
out vec3 vertexNormal;
out vec3 modelSpacePosition;
out vec3 cameraSpacePosition;
uniform mat4 worldToCameraMatrix;
uniform mat4 modelToWorldMatrix;
uniform mat3 normalModelToCameraMatrix;
uniform vec3 dirToLight;
uniform vec4 lightIntensity;
uniform vec4 ambientIntensity;
uniform vec4 baseColor;
uniform mat4 cameraToClipMatrix;
void main()
{
vertexNormal = normal;
vec3 normCamSpace = normalize(normalModelToCameraMatrix * vertexNormal);
cameraSpacePosition = normCamSpace;
float cosAngIncidence = dot(normCamSpace, dirToLight);
cosAngIncidence = clamp(cosAngIncidence, 0, 1);
modelSpacePosition.x = position.x;
modelSpacePosition.y = position.y;
modelSpacePosition.z = position.z;
vec4 temp = modelToWorldMatrix * position;
temp = worldToCameraMatrix * temp;
gl_Position = cameraToClipMatrix * temp;
interpColor = ((lightIntensity * cosAngIncidence) + (ambientIntensity)) * baseColor;
colorCoord= texCoord ;
}
The fragment shader like this:
#version 330
in vec3 vertexNormal;
in vec3 modelSpacePosition;
smooth in vec4 interpColor;
uniform vec3 modelSpaceLightPos;
uniform vec4 lightIntensity2;
uniform vec4 ambientIntensity2;
out vec4 outputColor;
//Added later
in vec2 colorCoord;
uniform sampler2D colorTexture;
void main()
{
vec3 lightDir2 = normalize(modelSpacePosition - modelSpaceLightPos);
float cosAngIncidence2 = dot(normalize(vertexNormal), lightDir2);
cosAngIncidence2 = clamp(cosAngIncidence2, 0, 1);
float light2DistanceSqr = dot(modelSpacePosition - modelSpaceLightPos, modelSpacePosition - modelSpaceLightPos);
//added
vec4 texture2 = texture(colorTexture, colorCoord);
outputColor = ((ambientIntensity2 + (interpColor*2))/4) +
((((interpColor) * lightIntensity2/200 * cosAngIncidence2) + (ambientIntensity2* interpColor ))
/( ( sqrt(light2DistanceSqr) + light2DistanceSqr)/200 ));
//No outputColor for texture testing
outputColor = texture2 ;
}
}
Those were both shaders. And here are the parts added to the .cpp:
#include <glimg/glimg.h>
#include "../framework/directories.h"
[...]
const int g_colorTexUnit = 0;
GLuint g_checkerTexture = 0;
And here's the loader for the texture:
void LoadCheckerTexture()
{
try
{
std::string filename(LOCAL_FILE_DIR);
filename += "checker.dds";
std::auto_ptr<glimg::ImageSet>
pImageSet(glimg::loaders::dds::LoadFromFile(filename.c_str()));
glGenTextures(1, &g_checkerTexture);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, g_checkerTexture);
glimg::SingleImage image = pImageSet->GetImage(0, 0, 0);
glimg::Dimensions dims = image.GetDimensions();
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGB8, dims.width, dims.height, 0, GL_BGRA, GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV, image.GetImageData());
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
}
catch(std::exception &e)
{
printf("%s\n", e.what());
throw;
}
}
Naturally I've got this in void init():
LoadCheckerTexture();
And then when rendering the object:
glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE0 + g_colorTexUnit);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,g_checkerTexture);
g_pLeftMesh->Render();
glBindSampler(g_colorTexUnit, 0);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
With all of this, I get put pitch black for everything, however when I change the outputColor equation into "texture + outputColor;", everything looks normal. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here. A friend tried to help me, we removed some unnecessairy stuff, but we got nothing running.
Ok guys, I've worked on this whole thing, and did manage to somehow get it running. First off I had to add samplers:
GLuint g_samplers;
//Add Later
void CreateSamplers()
{
glGenSamplers(1, &g_samplers);
glSamplerParameteri(g_samplers, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_REPEAT);
glSamplerParameteri(g_samplers, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_REPEAT);
//Linear mipmap Nearest
glSamplerParameteri(g_samplers, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
glSamplerParameteri(g_samplers, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);
}
I also added this to the file thing:
glimg::OpenGLPixelTransferParams xfer = glimg::GetUploadFormatType(pImageSet->GetFormat(), 0);
glimg::SingleImage image = pImageSet->GetImage(0, 0, 0);
glimg::Dimensions dims = image.GetDimensions();
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, dims.width, dims.height, 0,
xfer.format, xfer.type, image.GetImageData());
The xfer variable does get the format and type adjusted to the dds.
Also the render code got turned into this:
//Added necessary
glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE0 + g_colorTexUnit);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,g_checkerTexture);
glBindSampler(g_colorTexUnit, g_samplers);
g_pLeftMesh->Render();
glBindSampler(g_colorTexUnit, 0);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
And of course at the end of init() I needed to add the CreateSamplers thing:
//Added this later
LoadCheckerTexture();
CreateSamplers();
I'm sorry for all the trouble with all this, but guess OpenGL really is just this confusing and it was just dumb luck that I got it right. Just posting this so that people know
Your fail to add textures may be caused by:
Have you add texture coordinates to objects? (this is the most probable cause, because you are adding textures to non textured tutorial), add textures to VAO.
Did you add uniform textureunit (Sampler2D)? (it must be uniform, else texturing will not work properly)
Is your texture loaded,binded,enabled (GL_TEXTURE_2D) ?
Is your active texture unit - 0? if not change layout/multitexture coords or set active texture 0
This two codes are simple texturing shaders (texture unit 0) no special things (like light,blend,bump,...):
tm_l2g is transformation local obj space -> world space (Modelview)
tm_g2s is transformation world space -> screen space (Projection)
pos are vertex coordinates
txt are texture coordinates
col are colors
Do not forget to change uniform names and layout locations to yours.

[edit3] if you are win32/64 user you can try my IDE for GLSL
It is very simple and easy to use, but cannot change texture/attrib locations. Press [F1] for help,... [F9] for run [F10] for return to normal OpenGL mode. Also txt-editor is little buggy sometimes but it is enough for my purpose.
