    Re: Disabling Multitexturing

    Very simple answer. (really I think this would be more appropriate in Beginner's Forum)
    Remember to enable/disable GL_TEXTURE_2D (or whatever) for every active texture unit.

    Re: Texture color

    Also, don't forget your GL_LIGHTING state.
    When lighting is enabled the texture is modulated by the glMaterial color properties, instead of glColor values.

    A solution could be to render off-screen and then use glCopyPixels to get the pixels on the framebuffer.

    Re: moving a camera (quats?)

    You can choose to do spherical linear interpolation, instead of linear interpolation. That was explained in an article by Jeff Lander (I think) of GDMag.
    Found on the GDMag archives.

    Re: Fast Lighting?

    Apparently, the light position is in the object space of the cylinder, so it's being transformed by the modelview.
    Also, remember to update the spot direction (it is transformed by the inverse of...

    You mean "not render"!
    Simply, have a boolean flag for each object (1 for echo, 1 for symbol), and draw the objects for which the flag is enabled.

    dmy: basically, glColor and glMaterial are equivalent in this case.
    You'll use glMaterial if you have GL_LIGHTING switched on; otherwise glColor. Obviusly with glMaterial you have much more...

    Take also a look at octrees. They're a hierarchical data type used to partition the 3d space. You'll find infos on them at Gamasutra and flipCode.

    Re: Rendering without Display

    Any buffer can be used, as long as you can create a rendering context for it.
    i.e. OGL is not intended to provide support on buffer management, so it depends strictly on the windowing API.

    Minimal steps:

    - glutInitDisplayMode
    - glutCreateWindow
    - glutDisplayFunc to set the callback

    Obviously. If you don't push the matrix you are transforming by the same matrix of the camera.

    There is quite a lot of confusion in this argument. Let's try to clarify things.
