advanced csg using stencil buffer

[havi888]

as we kown,in OGL we can get a fake csg by using stencil buffer,but a true boolean operations should produce one true solid after oparetion,what should i do to find the valid point of intersections to construt the true solid.
need your advices or some code should be better,
thanks a lot!

have a look at http://www.opencsg.org , this may be what you're looking for.
Otherwise try a google search on csg + opengl, there are a number of possible implementations.

Hello.

I have a recent CSG program and website I did for a class project. If anyone is interested I could clean it up and give it out cause it does teach how to do "real" CSG.

hky I'd be interrested in "computational" CSG, ie, real geometry calculation.

Hello,

Here is a link to the CSG tutorial I am re-writing. It is not complete yet, but should be so in about 24 to 48 hours. Currently, it talks about splitting edges and polygons. By tommorow I will post up doing the set operations and using a binary tree to keep track of all the splits.

If you have specific questions or want me to add or remove something from the tutorial, email me at ahassan@ucalgary.ca .

PS: I will add sample code in C\C++, Java and Visual Basic once I finish the tutorial.
