Wow. If all these articles are finished, your tutorials are going to be recommended for everybody who wants to learn modern opengl on these forums.



What I will be waiting for, is hardware-accelerated skinning.

Quite incredible graphics style!

*Follows*

You know and are capable of too much elisee 



Which is good

That's nice. May I ask (?):

- The language you are using to develop it
- The GUI library (if one used) to develop it with

Good luck with your project

Madk, make some room

NO.

Then I shall fight for it!

So, that barrel is sort of 2d?

No way, you code for 7 years only? With such amazing effects?
And you can add so much in such little time?

Madk, make some room

sexy IDE

Whoah. How did you manage to write GUI for such colored editbox for your IDE? Again, you wrote it yourself with OpenGL only?

Whoah.

The editor looks awesome. Is there a full-screen option for the Polycode IDE? If not is it possible you can make one?

Stupid question. Name one thing Ivan can't do.

 

@kamac - He's using OpenTK, which has a Matrix4 class and a Identity matrix constant build-in

Well now he knows how to do that with OpenGL and C++ too  

Just to clarify, you can create your own matrix (which polly uses) like that*:

Code:

float m[0x10] = {
1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 1, 0, 0,
0, 0, 1, 0,
0, 0, 0, 1
};

It's got those values, because:

Code:

[ 1 0 0 0 ]   [ x ]   [ x ]
[ 0 1 0 0 ] * [ y ] = [ y ]
[ 0 0 1 0 ]   [ z ]   [ z ]
[ 0 0 0 1 ]   [ w ]   [ w ]

Which basically means this matrice doesn't change output position at all. (When we give it to our vertex shader, and there multiply matrice by coordinate, we will get raw coordinate. Much as multiplying a * 1)

If you wonder how can you pass matrice to your shader, you do it this way:

Code:

glUseProgram(someProgram);
glMatrixUniform4fv(matrixUniform,1,GL_FALSE,&m);
/*
Your normal drawing stuff here
*/

I guess that's it.

* 0x10 = 16. We want 4x4 matrice. You could aswell put it in two dimensional array

This looks really cool, although for a pretty small niche market

Sad but true.

I really like your GUI.
 

Start a devlog and you'll be level 10 in no time. I didn't even notice I was level 10 until a secret level 10 forum appeared in the list. Or was that a secret? Whoops..

It's a secret to everyone.

@kamac, you're right, ID is just a 32-bit unsigned integer. actually blockType should be a uint16, so that code's a mistake.

I knew it 
Them be defining new types to mistake us 

I think you need to work over water.
In fact, it seems there's no water, just colored terrain after all.

I guess that's on to-do list?

The screenshot you posted on "screenshot saturday" caught my attention, brought to your blog and finally made me post here 

Are there going to be native NPCs / allies?

Keep it up

Does it work for like... MSVC C++ version too?

Yep, including Express ( the free version )

ohboyohboyohboyohboyohboyohboy

Got to have it.

I still target XP, so until a v120_xp comes out, I can't use it

You mean v110_xp? It got added in "Update 1" for Visual Studio 2012.

+ Got to love that dark skin

Oh boy oh boy oh boy. Full, dark skin?!

Does it work for like... MSVC C++ version too?

Also, some people say that <functional> is C++11, some think otherwise.  

<functional> is C++98.  std::function is C++11.  They aren't the same thing, there's a lot more in <functional> than just std::function.

Ouch. Thanks for clarification.

RobJinman
Thanks, I'll probably look into that. For the source.

@EDIT

Boy, that's some mind-fucking C++ code.

I'll stay with boost for this one though. I believe it's safer too. (Althrough, I can't prove that)

ID blockType;

I wonder if ID is actually

Code:

typedef unsigned int ID;

here 
Or it's a class?
