Program Specific OpenGL Runtime Bug: Multiple Input Buffers For Skinned Animation - c++

Question

The Problem:
It seems as if the second GLuint buffer is not being read in properly.
Update: So the problem must be when I try to input the data to the shader. I rewrote the code (the old code is still below) to use swizzling for the index parameter. That was the only way I could get it to work. I would like to use multiple glVertexAttribPointer's, but every time I try to gives me the same undefined results.
What I Am Trying To Do:
I'm testing out very simple skinned animation with a very simplified shader,
#version 330 core
in vec2 model;
in uint jointID;
const int MAX_JOINTS = 10;
uniform mat4 joints[MAX_JOINTS];
void main()
{
gl_Position = joints[jointID] * vec4(model, 0.0f, 1.0f);
}
I input some simple data,
const GLfloat vertices[] =
{
// upper arm
0.0f, 0.0f,
0.4f, 0.0f,
0.4f, 0.2f,
0.0f, 0.0f,
0.4f, 0.2f,
0.0f, 0.2f,
// lower arm
0.4f, 0.0f,
0.8f, 0.0f,
0.8f, 0.2f,
0.4f, 0.0f,
0.8f, 0.2f,
0.4f, 0.2f
};
const GLuint indices[] =
{
// upper arm
0,
1,
1,
0,
1,
0,
// lower arm
1,
1,
1,
1,
1,
1
};
(The first array containing the vertices and the second array containing the corresponding boneID's.) Oddly, the boneID's never seem too equal 1 because when I make the matrix at index 1 some really funky value, the vertices remain untransformed. This leads me to believe that it is a problem with the way I set up my glVertexAttribPointer's,
void SkinnedModel::draw()
{
shaderProgram.use();
glEnableVertexAttribArray(modelLoc);
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, vertexBuffer);
glVertexAttribPointer(modelLoc, 2, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, NULL);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(jointIDLoc);
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, indexBuffer);
glVertexAttribPointer(jointIDLoc, 1, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, GL_FALSE, 0, NULL);
glUniformMatrix4fv(jointsLoc, 10, GL_FALSE, (GLfloat*)&poseMatrices);
glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, numVertices);
glDisableVertexAttribArray(modelLoc);
glDisableVertexAttribArray(jointIDLoc);
}
I've been banging my head against the desk for the past few hours looking at what seems to be correct code. Anyway, it's probably something dumb I missed. Any help is appreciated.
Here is all the relevant source code (just in case):

Update: Apparently if all values for the boneID are set to 1 it never uses 1 in the shader either #.#. So the second array isn't even being read, or it's not being read correctly.

Answer 1

You need to use glVertexAttribIPointer if you are using integer vertex attributes (i.e. something you have declared in uint or in int etc. in your vertex shader).
replace
glVertexAttribPointer(jointIDLoc, 1, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, GL_FALSE, 0, NULL);
with
glVertexAttribIPointer(jointIDLoc, 1, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0, NULL);
(note that glVertexAttribIPointer doesn't take the normalized parameter)
