Screeen Depth

[Gelero]

hello guys!

im working on a zaxis scrolling game...
and i think my zaxis is too short... i mean.. i only can see the objects when they are "very close" like a 200 points...

like:
object z coordinate = -200
camera z coordinate = 0
what i have to do to increase the depth of my fov...

follows the screenshot:

by the way, the big quad (with texture) is too much bigger in -z axis...


thank you!

Somewhere in your code you have likely used either gluPerspective or glFrustum, the last term of either of those is zFar. Raise that value. You may also need to raise zNear, the value just before zFar in those functions, since it is the ratio of those two values that determines how the z buffer values are apportioned.
