Learn OpenGL

I want to learn how to develop graphics programmes

I need to learn OpenGL so I can become more equipped for animating 3d objects.

I work there, and I’d tell you it is the greatest OpenGL class in the world, but I think it may be the only OpenGL class in the world…

My course has finished!
I didn’t learn as much about as I would have liked, but I did learn a lot.

About all I’ve done is draw the paddles, the ball, and a background, it’s quick and dirty, but it took me a month to make….

Things I think I need to do before moving on to my next assignment:
1. figure out the ‘proper’ way of doing lighting
2. how to zoom in/out, and why it was affecting my lighting before
3. what I should and shouldn’t put in my idle functions!

Up to chapter 10 in the “redbook” – need to get thru chapter 11 at least before Saturday.

I’ve found the NeHe tutorials to be quite useful, and SDL is a really nice framework for handling all the messy details, so you can get straight to the real work.
