I've been learning 3-D programming in OpenGL, and judging by the title I think you can imagine what I'm gonna say. I've gone and now I'm mostly done with creating a cute little model of a Recognizer in 3-D.
It's advantages over my previous model are that 1) It correctly draws the lines and 2) The source AND executable are 120 K long combined, whereas the Anim8or model was ~1 MB of model and ~6 MB of bitmaps.
I've got the legs done, and I'm working on getting all the darn funny angles of the "torso" right. I haven't started on the cabin yet.
It's all here: http://www.geocities.com/tron2user/RecognizerModel
I'd like to think I've done something quasi-original, but I doubt it (Was still a lot of fun to do, though!). If you like it or have something to say, contact is ejkeever AT comcast.net.abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

Hi Eric K. I know this is going to sound like a the siliest Question. WQhich compiler do you use for this. Is it the standard compiler that you can get like Visual Studio Enterprise, Borland compilers and all that? I have Both the academic version of VS.net and Visual Studio 6.0 I think as well as Borlands version of C++ and J++ over here. Its on my other computer right next to this one.
P.S. Or should I wipe my other computer clean and just install Solaris 9 from Sun Microsystems. I recently downloaded a developers version for free over here from Sun Micro Systems web site.

To compute or not to compute that is the question at hand. Tis nobler to compile in C++ or in TASM.

I stated what I used on the page I linked to; GCC on a x86 PC running Mandrake Linux 9.2. I'm 16, so I have no way to afford a commercial compiler . This is the first real useful program I've written in OpenGL.
My program is derived from the Linux conversion of the lesson 1 tutorial at nehe.gamedev.net; I'm reasonably sure it will compile on a computer running X11 for GUI and with GL, GLU, and GLUT installed.
(Going off at a bit of a tangent here: It's worth noting that I actually built THIS model on the one I made in Anim8or, using Anim8or to tell me all the points to use as I went)

So in theory it should work in some of the major compilers or even on a free version of Sun Microsystems Solaris 9 that can be downloaded from the net as well. I'll give it a try when I get Solaris 9 running over here. It should have same compilers in there as does Linux Mandrake.
