A problem with cubes...

[CyBBe]

I've done a "worm" that U control with the arrow-keys, but between the cubes (glutSolidCube) I get a "crack", and it dosn't look good at all, what can I do about this, some kind of smooth or something, anyone???

[dmy]

why don't implement something like an arc fillet ?

Arc fillet, what's that?

[dmy]

suppose you have two unconnected lines:




/ \
/ \
/ \
/ \


you can create an arc fillet by joining these two lines:




______
/ \
/ \
/ \
/ \


or maybe with more than one segment, to make it appear smoother:




__
.' '.
/ \
/ \
/ \
/ \

with your cubes, you can extend the concept to surfaces easily: you just have to retrieve the needed vertices, and connect them with strips.
