  • How do you load in a .bmp file to use it as a height map in C++?

    - by user1324894
    I need to create a terrain that can be used in C++ and opengl and I am told that using a height map is the way to go. I have a .bmp file that is a greyscale image that I would like to use. However, I do not know how to load that greyscale image into the project so that it can be used as a height map or how I can apply a texture to it to create terrain nor how to compute the normals that I'm told will be required. How would I go about achieving what I would like to do?

  • How can I get the camera to follow a moving object from behind in C++ and openGL [closed]

    - by user1324894
    I am trying to get the camera to follow an object that moves around my environment using the gluLookAt function. This is my code for the object moving in the direction that it faces: Xtri += -Vtri*cos((90+heading)*(PI/180.0f)); Ztri += Vtri*sin((90+heading)*(PI/180.0f)); I then render the object: glPushMatrix(); glTranslatef(Xtri,0,Ztri); glRotatef(heading,0,1,0); drawTriangle(); glPopMatrix(); All heading is is a spin variable so that if I press left or right it spins in that direction. When you press up on the arrows it moves forward and if you press down it moves backwards in the direction that it is facing. To try and get it so the camera follows I am using the gluLookAt function like this: gluLookAt(Xtri,0,(Ztri+20), Xtri,0,Ztri, 0,1,0); So that it follows the car from a distance and should follow it around. However, the object doesn't even move at all now all it can do is rotate still but not move forwards or backwards and when it spins it doesn't follow the spin instead it just watches it turn still fixed to the same position. Where is it that I am going wrong? UPDATE: I have updated the gluLookAt function so now it is: gluLookAt((Xtri+Vtri),0,((Ztri+20)), (Xtri+Vtri),0,(Ztri), 0,1,0); This seems to move the object around. I have a stationary terrain so I can see that the object is now moving and in the direction that it is facing. However, I want the camera to follow the object when it spins as well so it is always viewing the object from behind.

  • texture colours opengl

    - by user1324894
    Hi I am making a simple 2D game in c++ and for the map I am doing texture mapping by using tiles and assigning textures to those tiles. However, when I run the programme the textures become black and white when I want them to be the colour they are in the .png image. This is my code: int worldMap[10][10] = { {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}, }; void background() { glClearColor(0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0); /**********************************************************************************************/ // Texture loading object nv::Image img; // Return true on success if(img.loadImageFromFile("Image_Loading/field.png")) { glGenTextures(1, &myTexture); glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, myTexture); glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP, GL_TRUE); glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, img.getInternalFormat(), img.getWidth(), img.getHeight(), 0, img.getFormat(), img.getType(), img.getLevel(0)); glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR); glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR); glTexParameterf( GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_REPEAT ); glTexParameterf( GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_REPEAT ); glTexParameterf(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAX_ANISOTROPY_EXT, 16.0f); } else MessageBox(NULL, "Failed to load texture", "End of the world", MB_OK | MB_ICONINFORMATION); /**********************************************************************************************/ } void drawTiles (void) { //our function to draw the tiles for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) //loop through the height of the map { for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++) //loop through the width of the map { if (worldMap[i][j] == 0) //if the map at this position contains a 0 { glBindTexture( GL_TEXTURE_2D, myTexture ); //bind our grass texture to our shape } glPushMatrix(); //push the matrix so that our translations only affect this tile glTranslatef(j, -i, 0); //translate the tile to where it should belong glBegin (GL_QUADS); //begin drawing our quads glTexCoord2d(10, 0); glVertex2f((-10 + mapX),(-10 + mapY)); //with our vertices we have to assign a texcoord glTexCoord2d(10, 0); glVertex2f((10 + mapX),(-10 + mapY)); //so that our texture has some points to draw to glTexCoord2d(10, 10); glVertex2f((10 + mapX),(10 + mapY)); glTexCoord2d(0, 10); glVertex2f((-10 + mapX),(10 + mapY)); glEnd(); glPopMatrix(); //pop the matrix } //end first loop } //end second loop } void display() { glClearColor (0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0); glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT); /**********************************************************************************************/ glMatrixMode( GL_PROJECTION ); glLoadIdentity(); gluOrtho2D( -5, 5, -5, 5); glMatrixMode( GL_MODELVIEW ); glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D); glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, myTexture); glEnable(GL_BLEND); glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA); drawTiles(); glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D); glDisable(GL_BLEND); /**********************************************************************************************/ } void character () { glBegin(GL_POLYGON); glVertex2f((-0.5+characterX),(-0.5 +characterY)); glVertex2f((-0.5+characterX),(0.5+characterY)); glVertex2f((0.5+characterX),(0.5+characterY)); glVertex2f((0.5+characterX),(-0.5+characterY)); glTranslatef(characterX, characterY, 0.0f); glEnd(); } Can anybody help please?
