I was trying to create a OpenGL version of an old plasma 8bit effect animation in DOS but I am stuck. Since almost every OpenGL program has included something to generate a palette for Win32 I thought it would not be that hard to apply palette animation on my old program.
My purpose is to generate a texture with color indices that does not change and a palette that is rotating. After digging into the web this weekend I am still not able to fix it. I cannot even display a texture with one color index so in that stage something is wrong (if it would work I can create the palette cycling mechanism).
I can force into palette mode by using PFD_TYPE_COLORINDEX and draw some random pixels using glIndexi. I read that glDrawPixels and glReadPixels are slow and the latter is not that accurate when getting pixels back from the framebuffer (due to inaccurate positioning as a result from rounding errors or something).
I tried the GL_COLOR_INDEX keyword. I also tried:
glPixelTransferi(GL_MAP_COLOR, true);
glPixelMapfv( GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_R, ...);
glTexImage2D... Some of the code I tried so far (latest changes):
init part:
void* rawplasma;
GLuint plastexture;
rawplasma = (void*) malloc(256*256);
memset(rawplasma,rand()%256,256*156);
glEnable( GL_TEXTURE_2D );
glGenTextures(1, plastexture);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, plastexture);
glTexImage2D( GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_COLOR_INDEX, 256, 256, 0, GL_COLOR_INDEX, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, rawplasma );
update/draw:
float Rmap[256];
float Gmap[256];
float Bmap[256];
float Amap[256];
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
memset(rawplasma,rand()%256,256*256); //check if it works
glTexImage2D( GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_COLOR_INDEX, 256, 256, 0, GL_COLOR_INDEX, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, rawplasma );
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, plastexture );
/*
glPixelTransferi( GL_MAP_COLOR, GL_TRUE );
glPixelMapfv(GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_R,mapSize,Rmap);
glPixelMapfv(GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_G,mapSize,Gmap);
glPixelMapfv(GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_B,mapSize,Bmap);
glPixelMapfv(GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_A,mapSize,Amap);
glPixelTransferi(GL_MAP_COLOR,GL_TRUE);
*/
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glTexCoord2f(1.0, 0.0); glVertex2f(-1.0, -1.0);
glTexCoord2f(0.0, 0.0); glVertex2f( 1.0, -1.0);
glTexCoord2f(0.0, 1.0); glVertex2f( 1.0, 1.0);
glTexCoord2f(1.0, 1.0); glVertex2f(-1.0, 1.0);
glEnd();
glFlush();
SwapBuffers(hDC);
Or should I use glColorTableEXT in combination with GL_COLOR_INDEX8_EXT? I read somewhere that textured palettes are not supported? I found a link which mentions Paletted Texture Extension: http://www.cs.rit.edu/~ncs/Courses/570/UserGuide/OpenGLonWin-20.html
This is what I want (but then in OpenGL):

I am not looking for ES/Shader implementations (I am just a beginner ;)) and DirectDraw might be easier I think but I want to try OpenGL.
Since almost every OpenGL program has included something to generate a palette for Win32
No, definitely not. If you mean the PIXELFORMATDESCRIPTOR, that is not a palette definition. Color index mode was a major PITA to work with in OpenGL, and no current implementation actually support it.
I am not looking for ES/Shader implementations (I am just a beginner ;))
But that's exactly what you should use. Also shaders are mandatory in modern OpenGL. A simple fragment shader, that performs a lookup into a 1D texture turning an index into a color is exactly what you need. And if you aim for modern systems, you'll have to use a shader anyway.

I am trying to develop a working EFIS display written in C++, OpenGL and the X-Plane SDK for an aircraft in X-Plane. I do not have very much experience with C++ and OpenGL. However, I do know X-Plane fairly well and I know how to use the X-Plane data for moving each element. What I do not know is how to code the EFIS display to draw all of the elements in an efficient way. I only know the very basics of drawing an OpenGL GL_QUAD and binding a texture to it however this seems to be a very low-level way of doing things.
What I would like to be able to do is create the GUI for the EFIS in a more efficient way as there are a lot of texture elements that need to be drawn.
This is an example of what I would like to build for X-Plane:
Here is the code I have currently written that loads in 1 image texture and binds it to a GL_QUAD.
static int my_draw_tex(
XPLMDrawingPhase inPhase,
int inIsBefore,
void* inRefcon)
{
// Note: if the tex size is not changing, glTexSubImage2D is faster than glTexImage2D.
// The drawing part.
XPLMSetGraphicsState(
0, // No fog, equivalent to glDisable(GL_FOG);
1, // One texture, equivalent to glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
0, // No lighting, equivalent to glDisable(GL_LIGHT0);
0, // No alpha testing, e.g glDisable(GL_ALPHA_TEST);
1, // Use alpha blending, e.g. glEnable(GL_BLEND);
0, // No depth read, e.g. glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
0); // No depth write, e.g. glDepthMask(GL_FALSE);
//---------------------------------------------- HORIZON -----------------------------------------//
glPushMatrix();
// Bind the Texture
XPLMBindTexture2d(texName[HORIZON], 0);
glColor3f(1, 1, 1);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
// Initial coordinates for the horizon background
int arry[] = { 838, 465, 838, 2915, 2154, 2915, 2154 ,465 };
// Coordinates for the image
glTexCoord2f(0, 0); glVertex2f(arry[0], arry[1]);
glTexCoord2f(0, 1); glVertex2f(arry[2], arry[3]);
glTexCoord2f(1, 1); glVertex2f(arry[4], arry[5]);
glTexCoord2f(1, 0); glVertex2f(arry[6], arry[7]);
glEnd();
/*glDisable(GL_SCISSOR_TEST);*/
glPopMatrix();
return 1;
}
If someone could help with this, I would greatly appreciate it.
So, I've been trying to rotate a single object in an OpenGL/GLUT environment.
After going through several questions on SO and the like, I've written what appears to be correct code, but no dice. Does anyone know how to make this work?
PS: I've tried changing the GLMatrixmode to Projection, but that just shows a black screen. Same thing happens if I use glLoadIdentity().
Here's my rendering code
void display()
{
preProcessEvents();
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT|GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
glLoadIdentity();
gluLookAt(Camera::position.x, Camera::position.y, Camera::position.z,
Camera::position.x+Math::sind(Camera::rotationAngles.x)*Math::cosd(Camera::rotationAngles.y),
Camera::position.y+Math::cosd(Camera::rotationAngles.x),
Camera::position.z+Math::sind(Camera::rotationAngles.x)*Math::sind(Camera::rotationAngles.y),
0.0, 1.0, 0.0);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glColor3f(1, 0, 0);
glVertex3f(-1, 0,-3);
glColor3f(0, 1, 0);
glVertex3f(0.0f, 2.0f,-3);
glColor3f(0, 0, 1);
glVertex3f(1.0f, 0.0f,-3);
glEnd();
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, tex->textureID);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glColor3f(1, 1, 1);
glTexCoord2f(100, 100);
glVertex3f(100,0,100);
glTexCoord2f(-100, 100);
glVertex3f(-100,0,100);
glTexCoord2f(-100,-100);
glVertex3f(-100,0,-100);
glTexCoord2f(100,-100);
glVertex3f(100,0,-100);
glEnd();
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
object1.draw();
glTranslatef(-10.0, 10.0, 0.0);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, tex2->textureID);
gluQuadricTexture(quad,1);
gluSphere(quad,10,20,20);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
//RELEVANT CODE STARTS HERE
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
glPushMatrix();
glRotatef(190, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0);
glPopMatrix();
glutSwapBuffers();
}
Are you aware what glPushMatrix and glPopMatrix do? They save and restore the "current" matrix.
By enclosing your rotation in that and then doing no actual drawing operation before restoring the matrix the entire sequence of code beginning with //RELEVANT CODE STARTS HERE is completely pointless.
Even if you did not push/pop, your rotation would only be applied the next time you draw something. Logically you might think that would mean the next time you call display (...), but one of the first things you do in display (...) is replace the current matrix with an identity matrix (line 3).
In all honesty, you should consider abandoning whatever resource you are currently using to learn OpenGL. You are using deprecated functionality and missing a few fundamentals. A good OpenGL 3.0 tutorial will usually touch on the basics of transformation matrices.
As for why changing the matrix mode to projection produces a black screen, that is because the next time you call display (...), gluLookAt operates on the projection matrix. In effect, you wind up applying the camera transformation twice. You should really add glMatrixMode (GL_MODELVIEW) to the beginning of display (...) to avoid this.
You do the rotation (and reset it with glPopMatrix) after you draw, do the rotation code before the glBegin/glEnd calls.
Or just move to the shader based pipeline and manage you own transformation matrices.
I am trying to figure out the best way to mask of sections of a texture when they ar drawn. My issue comes in the fact that I seem to have run our of alpha masks!
We are using openGL to draw a custom built 2D game engine. The game is built up off of sprites and simple block textures.
My desired outcome is like this:
A character sprite is drawn in place (using it's alpha color to not just be a box)
An item is drawn into the players hand (also using it's alpha color to draw into the scene without being a box)
The item should appear behind the characters arm/hand, but above the rest of the body.
For the moment the only way I can figure out how to accomplish this, is by drawing them in order (Body, Item, Arm) but I would like to avoid this to make art assets a bit easier to deal with. My idea solution would be to draw the character, then draw the item with an alpha mask that blocks out areas of the texture that should be "under" the arm.
Other solutions that I have seen are like this, where the glBlendFuncSeparate() function is used. I am trying to avoid bringing in extensions, as my current version of OpenGL doesn't support it. Not to say that I am opposed to the idea, but it seems a bit of a handle to brig it in just to draw an alpha mask?
I fully admit that this is a learning process for me, and I am using it as an excuse to really see how OpenGL handles. Any suggestions as to where I should head to get this to draw correctly? Is there a way for OpenGL in the fixed pipeline to take a texture, apply an alpha mask on top of it, and THEN draw it into the buffer? Should I give in and separate my character into several parts of its model?
[UPDATE: 8/12/12]
Tried to add the code suggested by Tim, but I seem to be having an issue. When I enable the stencil buffer, everything just gets blocked out, NOT just what I wanted. Here is my test example code.
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT | GL_STENCIL_BUFFER_BIT);
// Disable writing to any of the color fields
glColorMask(GL_FALSE, GL_FALSE, GL_FALSE, GL_FALSE);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_KEEP, GL_INCR);
glStencilFunc(GL_ALWAYS, 0,0);
// Draw our blocking poly
glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
glVertex2f( 50, 50 );
glVertex2f( 50, 50+128 );
glVertex2f( 50+128, 50+128 );
glEnd();
glStencilFunc(GL_GREATER, 0, -1);
glEnable(GL_STENCIL_TEST);
// Re enable drawing of colors
glColorMask(GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE);
// Enable use of textures
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
// Bind desired texture for drawing
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,(&texture)[0]);
// Draw the box with colors
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glTexCoord2d( 0, 0 ); glVertex2f( 50, 50 );
glTexCoord2d( 0, 1 ); glVertex2f( 50, 50+128 );
glTexCoord2d( 1, 1 ); glVertex2f( 50+128, 50+128 );
glTexCoord2d( 1, 0 ); glVertex2f( 50+128, 50 );
glEnd();
// Swap buffers and display!
SDL_GL_SwapBuffers();
Just to be clear, here is my init code as well to set this system up.
When the code is run with stencil disabled, I get this:
When I use glEnable(GL_STENCIL_TEST), I get this:
I've tried playing around with various options, but I cannot see a clear reason why my stencil buffer is blocking everything.
[Update#2 8/12/12]
We got some working code, Thanks tim! Here is what I ended up running to work correctly.
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT | GL_STENCIL_BUFFER_BIT);
// Disable writing to any of the color fields
glColorMask(GL_FALSE, GL_FALSE, GL_FALSE, GL_FALSE);
glStencilOp(GL_INCR, GL_INCR, GL_INCR);
glEnable(GL_STENCIL_TEST);
// Draw our blocking poly
glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
glVertex2f( 50, 50 );
glVertex2f( 50, 50+128 );
glVertex2f( 50+128, 50+128 );
glEnd();
glStencilFunc(GL_EQUAL, 1, 1);
glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_KEEP, GL_KEEP);
// Re enable drawing of colors
glColorMask(GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE);
// Enable use of textures
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
// Bind desired texture for drawing
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,(&texture)[0]);
// Draw the box with colors
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glTexCoord2d( 0, 0 ); glVertex2f( 50, 50 );
glTexCoord2d( 0, 1 ); glVertex2f( 50, 50+128 );
glTexCoord2d( 1, 1 ); glVertex2f( 50+128, 50+128 );
glTexCoord2d( 1, 0 ); glVertex2f( 50+128, 50 );
glEnd();
glDisable(GL_STENCIL_TEST);
// Swap buffers and display!
SDL_GL_SwapBuffers();
Here's my idea for the situation where you have one texture and one alpha mask:
Draw the character onto the scene like normal.
Lock the RGB color channels so that it cannot be changed with glColorMask
Setup the stencil buffer with glStencilOp(GL_KEEP, GL_KEEP, GL_INCR); glStencilFunc(GL_ALWAYS, 0,0);
Draw the alpha mask with alpha testing enabled. This will increment the stencil buffer anywhere the alpha test passes (you may have to flip this based on your mask polarity)
At this point, you have a character texture in the framebuffer, and a mask outline in the stencil buffer.
Reenable the color channels with glColorMask
Setup the stencil buffer for the weapon with glStencilFunc(GL_GREATER, 0, -1); This will only draw the weapon texels where the stencil buffer is greater than zero, and reject pixels where the stencil is not updated.
Draw the weapon texture as normal.
Tim was pretty clear in his comment, but I want to present you the solution I find the most intuitive. It's 3D, so hold on... ;)
Basically, you can just use the Z coordinate of your images to create virtual "layers". It then doesnt' matter, in which order you draw them. Just alphatest every image individually, and draw it on correct Z value. If it still isn't enough, you could use separate texture containing "depth" of every pixel, and then use the 2nd texture to perform some sort of depth-testing.
Be sure to call glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST); if you want to use this approach.
As I see it, the problem is that you have one texture, but part of it represents the arm and part of it the rest of the character. The issue is that you want to draw the weapon over the character, but draw the arm over both.
This means, while drawing two objects, you want to put them into three different "layers". This fundamentally doesn't make sense, so you're kind of stuck.
Here's an idea though: use a fragment program (i.e., a shader).
I suggest you overload the character's texture's alpha channel to encode both transparency and layer. For example, let's use 0=transparent body, 64=opaque body, 128=transparent arm, 255=opaque arm.
From here, you draw your objects, but conditionally set the depth of your objects into three layers. Basically, you write a fragment program that draws your character into two different layers, the character gets pushed backward while the arm gets pulled forward. When the weapon is drawn, it is drawn without a shader, but it's tested against the characters' pixels' depths. It works something like this (untested, obviously).
Define a shader my_shader, which contains a fragment program:
uniform sampler2D character_texture;
void main(void) {
vec4 sample = texture2D(character_texture,gl_TexCoord[0].st);
int type; //Figure out what type of character texel we're looking at
if (fabs(sample.a-0.00)<0.01) type = 0; //transparent body
else if (fabs(sample.a-0.25)<0.01) type = 1; //opaque body
else if (fabs(sample.a-0.50)<0.01) type = 2; //transparent arm
else if (fabs(sample.a-1.00)<0.01) type = 3; //opaque arm
//Don't draw transparent pixels.
if (type==0 || type==2) discard;
gl_FragColor = vec4(sample.rgb,1.0);
//Normally, you (can) write "gl_FragDepth = gl_FragCoord.z". This
//is how OpenGL will draw your weapon. However, for the character,
//we alter that so that the arm is closer and the body is farther.
//Move body farther
if (type==1) gl_FragDepth = gl_FragCoord.z * 1.1;
//Move arm closer
else if (type==3) gl_FragDepth = gl_FragCoord.z * 0.9;
}
Here's some pseudocode for your draw function:
//...
//Algorithm to draw your character
glUseProgram(my_shader);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,character.texture.texture_gl_id);
glUniform1i(glGetUniformLocation(my_shader,"character_texture"),1);
character.draw();
glUseProgram(0);
//Draw your weapon
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
character.weapon.draw();
glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
//...
After loading an image, I have the individual bytes for each channel loaded into an array of unsigned characters. It's passed to a function that projects it as a texture onto a quad. Everything seems to work properly other than the alpha channel, which shows up as the background color. I'm using OpenGL to draw the image. Would I benefit by adding a layering mechanism? Also, how can I achieve the transparent effect that I want?
Note: This is the code that I have a feeling needs changed:
void SetUpView()
{
// Set color and depth clear value
glClearDepth(1.f);
glClearColor(1.f, 0.f, 0.f, 0.f);
// Enable Z-buffer read and write
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glDepthMask(GL_TRUE);
glEnable (GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc (GL_ONE, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
// Setup a perspective projection
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
gluPerspective(90.f, 1.f, 1.f, 500.f);
};
Also, here's the code to render the quad.
void DrawTexturedRect(RectBounds *Verts, Image *Texture)
{
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GetTextureID(Texture));
glPixelStorei(GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT, 1);
glPixelZoom(1, -1);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glTexCoord2f(0.0, 1.0);
glVertex3f(Verts->corners[0].x, Verts->corners[0].y, Verts->corners[0].z);
glTexCoord2f(1.0, 1.0);
glVertex3f(Verts->corners[1].x, Verts->corners[1].y, Verts->corners[1].z);
glTexCoord2f(1.0, 0.0);
glVertex3f(Verts->corners[2].x, Verts->corners[2].y, Verts->corners[2].z);
glTexCoord2f(0.0, 0.0);
glVertex3f(Verts->corners[3].x, Verts->corners[3].y, Verts->corners[3].z);
glEnd();
};
The Image class holds an array of unsigned chars, obtained using OpenIL.
Relevant code:
loaded = ilLoadImage(filename.c_str());
ilConvertImage(IL_RGBA, IL_UNSIGNED_BYTE);
unsigned char *bytes = ilGetData();
//NewImage is an instance of an Image. This is returned and passed to the above function.
NewImage->data = bytes;
Before drawing anything transparent you should call:
glDepthMask(false);
And then afterwards:
glDepthMask(true);
Also, all transparent objects must be drawn after all opaque ones.
glClearColor(1.f, 0.f, 0.f, 0.f);
I'd assume that's at the RGBA default, and you're setting red to 1.0.
How about a better explanation of what you're trying to accomplish?
Try:
glBlendFunc (GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
Edit: I know what that looks like. It looks like you are drawing the blue square (Which has a Z-order position placing it behind the cursor) AFTER the cursor. You have to draw things in the correct, back-to-front Z-Order when alpha blending or you see errors like you are seeing.
I'm in the process of writing a wrapper for some OpenGL functions. The goal is to wrap the context used by the game Neverwinter Nights, in order to apply post-processing shader effects. After learning OpenGL (this is my first attempt to use it) and much playing with DLLs and redirection, I have a somewhat working system.
However, when the post-processing fullscreen quad is active, all texturing and transparency drawn by the game are lost. This shouldn't be possible, because all my functions take effect after the game has completely finished its own rendering.
The code does not use renderbuffers or framebuffers (both refused to compile on my system in any way, with or with GLEW or GLee, despite being supported and usable by other programs). Eventually, I put together this code to handle copying the texture from the buffer and rendering a fullscreen quad:
extern "C" SEND BOOL WINAPI hook_wglSwapLayerBuffers(HDC h, UINT v)
{
if ( frameCount > 250 )
{
frameCount++;
if ( frameCount == 750 ) frameCount = 0;
if ( nwshader->thisframe == NULL )
{
createTextures();
}
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, nwshader->thisframe);
glCopyTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, 0, 0, nwshader->width, nwshader->height, 0);
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.5f, 0.0f, 0.5f);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glBlendFunc(GL_ONE, GL_ZERO);
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glPushMatrix();
glLoadIdentity();
glOrtho( 0, nwshader->width , nwshader->height , 0, -1, 1 );
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glPushMatrix();
glLoadIdentity();
glColor4f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
glTexCoord2f(0.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex2d(0, 0);
glTexCoord2f(0.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex2d(0, nwshader->height);
glTexCoord2f(1.0f, 0.0f);
glVertex2d(nwshader->width, nwshader->height);
glTexCoord2f(1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex2d(nwshader->width, 0);
glEnd();
glMatrixMode( GL_PROJECTION );
glPopMatrix();
glMatrixMode( GL_MODELVIEW );
glPopMatrix();
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
} else {
frameCount++;
}
if ( h == grabbedDevice )
{
Log->logline("Swapping buffer on cached device.");
}
return wglSwapLayerBuffers(h,v);
}
This code functions almost functions perfectly and has no notable slow-down. However, when it is active (I added the frameCount condition to turn it on and off every ~5 seconds), all alpha and texturing are completely ignored by the game renderer. I'm not turning off any kind of blending or texturing before this function (the only OpenGL calls are to create the nwshader->thisframe texture).
I was able to catch a few screenshots of what's happening:
Broken A: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y145/peachykeen000/outside_brokenA.png
Broken B: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y145/peachykeen000/outside_brokenB.png
(note, in B, the smoke in the back is not broken, it is correctly transparent. So is the HUD.)
Broken Interior: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y145/peachykeen000/transparency_broken.png
Correct Interior (for comparison): http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y145/peachykeen000/transparency_proper.png
The drawing of the quad also breaks menus, turning the whole thing into a black surface with a single white box. I suspect it is a problem with either depth or how the game is drawing certain objects, or a state that is not being reset properly. I've used GLintercept to dump a full log of all calls in a frame, and didn't see anything wrong (the call to wglSwapLayerBuffers is always last).
Being brand new to working with OpenGL, I really have no clue what's going wrong (or how to fix it) and nothing I've tried has helped. What am I missing?
I don't quite understand how your code is supposed to integrate with the Neverwinter Nights code. However...
It seems like you're most likely changing some setting that the existing code didn't expect to change.
Based on the description of the problem, I'd try removing the following line:
glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
That line disables textures, which certainly sounds like the problem you're seeing.
