im trying to use a framebuffer for offscreen-render a cube. Then i try to translate it to a texture using its texture. The problem i get is when i try to put that texture on a plane. The texture colour is full based on one primary colour: Reed, Green or Blue. I dont know where is the problem, maybe a cast problem from float to double? I really dont know what to think or where to explore.
Here is a gif of what i get. In this gif you can see the normal cube without offscreen render. The second GREEN cube is the framebuffer's texture printed on a plane:
here is the code I use. Its based on Qt but there is no difference from this to glut. I explain it to make easier to understand:
initializeGL: I declare the framebuffer and its attachments
PaintGL: draws the cube without using the FB if i dont "left click" to enable this (first part of the gif, it works perfect). If i left click, then the routine changes and paint the cube on the FrameBuffer, and then i paint its texture on a plane. (second part of the gif, it paints my texture GREEN)
setProyection: set the glOrtho for the normal cube draw.

Solved! the problem were that i was painting the texture on a green plane. Thats because the last glcolor3f is green (used when i paint the back plane of the real cube).
I only have to add glColor3f(1.0,1.0,1.0) before drawing the plane, to make a white plane.
I was working with OpenGL C++ drawing shapes, specifically cubes. In my current project, I managed to draw a cube correctly, but only the side of the cube that gets drawn last doesn't go transparent when the camera is directly on it. The first two sides of the cube go completely transparent when viewed head-on. Is there a way to fix this? Here is the picture. As you can see, the first two sides don't get displayed. Here is my code:

#include "Render.h"

Chances are that all sides are drawn just fine. The problem is that you don't have a depth buffer. Therefore, everything that is drawn replaces what was drawn previously, no matter if it's in front or behind the previously drawn geometry.
To use a depth buffer, you have to request it during initialization:
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_DEPTH);
and enable depth testing before you start rendering:
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
Then, at the start of rendering each frame, you need to clear the depth buffer in addition to the color buffer:
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
This will make sure that the front most faces are visible, and the faces behind them are hidden, independent of the drawing order.
My school uses windows computers but I only have a mac at home.
The code runs fine in windows but for some reason I get errors running it in xCode.
I wasn't sure which frameworks to include so I added GLKit, Cocoa, GLUT, and OpenGL.
Am I missing something??

Why does it work in visual studio and not in Xcode??
The errors from the compiler seem pretty clear. The superficial reason it doesn't work is because this code contains Windows-isms that are not portable.
C++ doesn't allow a typedef of void to indicate an empty parameter list. You have to use void itself. So, just changed those GLvoids to voids.
sprintf_s() is a Windows-specific function. You can replace it with snprintf(), but you have to add a parameter after the buffer which is the size of the buffer. So, replace this:
sprintf_s(title, ...);
with:
snprintf(title, sizeof(title), ...);
The exit() function is available cross-platform, but you have to include the right header. Add #include <stdlib.h> near the top of your file.
I'm currently learning OpenGL and have been using it with SDL2 and when trying to run a simple program I am getting a black screen. Any help would be appreciated. I'm using OpenGL 2.1 and vc compiler.
Here's my code
#include <iostream>
#include <SDL.h>
#include <Windows.h>
#include <gl/GL.h>
#include <gl/GLU.h>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
int width, height;
width = 640;
height = 480;
SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING);
SDL_Window* win;
win = SDL_CreateWindow("SDL Application", 100, 100, width, height, SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN | SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL);
SDL_GLContext context;
context = SDL_GL_CreateContext(win);
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_DOUBLEBUFFER, 1);
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_DEPTH_SIZE, 24);
height = (height <= 0) ? height = height : height = 1;
glViewport(0, 0, width, height);
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
gluPerspective(45.0f, (GLfloat) width / (GLfloat) height, 0.1f, 100.0f);
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
glShadeModel(GL_SMOOTH);
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);

glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL);
glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, GL_NICEST);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
SDL_GL_SwapWindow(win);
glColor3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glTranslatef(-1.5f, 0.0f, -6.0f);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glVertex3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();
glTranslatef(3.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);

glEnd();
SDL_Delay(5000);
SDL_GL_DeleteContext(context);
SDL_DestroyWindow(win);
SDL_Quit();
return 0;
}
The order of those is wrong:
SDL_GLContext context;
context = SDL_GL_CreateContext(win);
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_DOUBLEBUFFER, 1);
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_DEPTH_SIZE, 24);
The OpenGL context attributes must be set before creating the context (they are state variables, that control the context creation process).
This makes no sense: First you clear, then you swap, then you draw (into a then undefined back buffer, since the content of the back buffer is undefined after a swap) and then you don't swap.
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
SDL_GL_SwapWindow(win);
glColor3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
/* this translate will move the triangle out
* of the NDC space i.e. it gets clipped or
* won't be visible at all. */
glTranslatef(-1.5f, 0.0f, -6.0f);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glVertex3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
This should be something like
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glColor3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glVertex3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();
glTranslatef(3.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();
SDL_GL_SwapWindow(win);
SDL_Delay(5000);
To make any sense at all. There are still loads of problems with the rest of the code, but if you change it that way, you should at least see some white triangle on a black ground.
How can I stack up these two opengl shapes into a container class?
can someone please show me
I wont mind a template.
void myTriangle()
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
glTranslatef(-1.5f,0.0f,-6.0f);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glColor3f(1.0f,0.0f,0.0f);
glVertex3f( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glColor3f(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glColor3f(0.0f,0.0f,1.0f);
glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();
glutSwapBuffers ( );
}
void myQuad()
{
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
glColor3f(0.5f,0.5f,1.0f);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f( 1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();
glutSwapBuffers ( );
}
not really sure of what you want to do, but you can do:
typedef void (*ShapeFct_t)();
typedef std::vector<ShapeFct_t> ShapeArray_t;
ShapeArray_t shapes;
shapes.push_back(myTriangle);
shapes.push_back(myQuad);
You can define a Shape base class, and have Quad and Triangle inherit from that class with an overloaded draw function. Here's a simplified, incomplete example:
/* Define these; use tuples, your own class, 3rd party, whatever */
class Position;
class Color;
/* Shape class is abstract base class */
class Shape {
public:
Shape(const Position &pos) : position(pos) {}
virtual void draw() = 0;
protected:
Position position;
};
/* Triangle and Quad classes are Shapes */
class Triangle : public Shape {
public:
Triangle(const Position &pos,
const Position &p1, const Color &c1,
const Position &p2, const Color &c2,
const Position &p3, const Color &c3)
: Shape(pos),
pos1(p1), col1(c1),
pos2(p2), col2(c2),
pos3(p3), col3(c3)
{}
virtual void draw() {
glTranslatef(position.x, position.y, position.z);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glColor3f(col1.r, col1.g, col1.b);
glVertex3f(pos1.x, pos1.y, pos1.z);
glColor3f(col2.r, col2.g, col2.b);
glVertex3f(pos2.x, pos2.y, pos2.z);
glColor3f(col3.r, col3.g, col3.b);
glVertex3f(pos3.x, pos3.y, pos3.z);
glEnd();
}
private:
Position pos1, pos2, pos3;
Color col1, col2, col3;
};
class Quad : public Shape {
/* Your implementation here */
};
void draw_all_shapes() {
std::vector<Shape*> shapes;
shapes.push_back(new Triangle(Position(-1.5f, 0f, -6f),
Position(0f, 1f, 0f), Color(1f, 0f, 0f),
Position(-1f, -1f, 0f), Color(0f, 1f, 0f),
Position(0f, 0f, 1f), Color(0f, 0f, 1f)));
shapes.push_back(new Quad(/* Arguments */));
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
for(auto it = shapes.begin(); it != shapes.end(); it++) {
(*it)->draw();
}
glutSwapBuffers();
}
Note: As I said, the example is incomplete. It's also untested and a little bit messy (memory leaks and such) but those problems are out of the scope of this question. The main point I am trying to demonstrate here is that you can convert your functions to classes, which can leverage inheritance and polymorphism to simplify your code.
Not sure if you care to edit what the shape looks like after you create it but you could put it in a display list, then store each display list in whatever container you like:
GLuint triangleList = glGenLists(1);
glNewList(triangleList, GL_COMPILE);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
glTranslatef(-1.5f,0.0f,-6.0f);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glColor3f(1.0f,0.0f,0.0f);
glVertex3f( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glColor3f(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glColor3f(0.0f,0.0f,1.0f);
glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();
glEndList();
GLuint quadList = glGenList(1);
glNewList(quadList, GL_COMPILE);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
glColor3f(0.5f,0.5f,1.0f);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f( 1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();
glEndList();
At this point you can store the quadList and triangleList in whatever container you like. You can tell OpenGL to display them by using the glCallList() function. To delete the list call glDeleteList().
