Why is this Windows only? Works perfect in Mac OS X. I use Netbeans for C++ applications with a window. The only thing you’ve got to keep in mind is that the working directory is / and not the directory of the compiled binary.

Hi Reyaad,

It should be a matter of removing windows.h and then including the OpenGL and GLUT libraries in Xcode. I can assure you that this code is portable.

Hi Swiftless

I’ve tried ‘OpenGL Texture Coordinate Generation’ with XCode4 but it is looking for the header file “wndows.h”. Is there anything I can do there?

Hi, Swiftless.
First of all, sorry for my English.
I’ve run this code.
But it’s not like tutorial 16.
6 sides of the cube has no texture on it.
It’s like there’s a texture on the background and I see that background through this Cube.
You know like diamond.
anyway thanks for your tutorial.
Shaleh.

Hi Bloodust,

Yes, it would be alot more efficient to load it at the start and release it when the program ends.

The new tutorials are more improved and do this instead of loading and releasing every frame. I just haven’t rewritten this one yet.

Cheers,

In line 79 you load the texture and in line 86 you free it. This progress repeats every frame and it should only be done once. Load when program starts and free when programs quits

Hey,

Thanks for the heads up, I’ve done a check and the content is up, I have to find out why it has disappeared out here though.

Cheers,
