Hey, I have a somewhat medium size question here I’ve been studying OpenGL for some time now and got very good at it to a point in my studying but the next adventure I’m trying to create a 3d room with a floor, ceiling, and walls and maybe a bonus add a pillar in the room as well.
Here is a pic of my compiled OpenGL program.
So, I’ve got my code here
I’m initializing OpenGL graphics here:
/* Initialize OpenGL Graphics */
void initGL() {
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f); // Set background color to black and opaque
glClearDepth(1.0f); // Set background depth to farthest
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST); // Enable depth testing for z-culling
glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL); // Set the type of depth-test
glShadeModel(GL_SMOOTH); // Enable smooth shading
glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, GL_NICEST); // Nice perspective corrections
}
here is the handle for the repaint event:
/* Handler for window-repaint event. Called back when the window first appears and
whenever the window needs to be re-painted. */
void display() {
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); // Clear color and depth buffers
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); // To operate on model-view matrix
Here I’m rendering a color cube consisting of 6 different quads with different colors and using “glTranslatef” to move the cube to the right of the screen.
// Render a color-cube consisting of 6 quads with different colors
glLoadIdentity(); // Reset the model-view matrix
glTranslatef(1.5f, 0.0f, -7.0f); // Move right and into the screen
Here, I’m begin to drawing the color cube with 6 quads aka" drawing my cube"
glBegin(GL_QUADS); // Begin drawing the color cube with 6 quads
// Top face (y = 1.0f)
// Define vertices in counter-clockwise (CCW) order with normal pointing out
glColor3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f); // Green
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
// Bottom face (y = -1.0f)
glColor3f(1.0f, 0.5f, 0.0f); // Orange
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
// Front face (z = 1.0f)
glColor3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f); // Red
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f);
// Back face (z = -1.0f)
glColor3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f); // Yellow
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f);
// Left face (x = -1.0f)
glColor3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f); // Blue
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(-1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f);
// Right face (x = 1.0f)
glColor3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f); // Magenta
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, 1.0f);
glVertex3f(1.0f, -1.0f, -1.0f);
glEnd(); // End of drawing color-cube
Here I’m using the handler for window resize event.
/* Handler for window re-size event. Called back when the window first appears and
whenever the window is re-sized with its new width and height */
void reshape(GLsizei width, GLsizei height) { // GLsizei for non-negative integer
// Compute aspect ratio of the new window
if (height == 0) height = 1; // To prevent divide by 0
GLfloat aspect = (GLfloat)width / (GLfloat)height;
// Set the viewport to cover the new window
glViewport(0, 0, width, height);
// Set the aspect ratio of the clipping volume to match the viewport
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); // To operate on the Projection matrix
glLoadIdentity(); // Reset
// Enable perspective projection with fovy, aspect, zNear and zFar
gluPerspective(45.0f, aspect, 0.1f, 100.0f);
}
Last I’m calling my Main function to finish this program.
/* Main function: GLUT runs as a console application starting at main() */
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
glutInit(&argc, argv); // Initialize GLUT
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_DOUBLE); // Enable double buffered mode
glutInitWindowSize(640, 480); // Set the window's initial width & height
glutInitWindowPosition(50, 50); // Position the window's initial top-left corner
glutCreateWindow(title); // Create window with the given title
glutDisplayFunc(display); // Register callback handler for window re-paint event
glutReshapeFunc(reshape); // Register callback handler for window re-size event
initGL(); // Our own OpenGL initialization
glutMainLoop(); // Enter the infinite event-processing loop
return 0;
}
So, my question here remains the same How do I turn that cube into a 3d room with the walls, ceilings, floor, and add some pillars I know I have to draw them with quads and glVertex3f so can someone give me some code examples much appreciated by me on any help I get.
