Additive Blending in particles

[mouser58907]

Hi, I'm trying to right a CUDA (and eventually OpenCL) based particle engine. I have the particles working, but I would like to have them blend additively. Here is my current rendering code:

void glDrawParticles (void) {
	//GLfloat fSizes[2];
	//GLGetFloatfv(GL_ALIASED_POINT_SIZE_RANGE, fSizes);
        //if( fSizes[1] > 100.0f )
        //fSizes[1] = 100.0f;
 
        glPointSize( 4 );
	glPushMatrix();
 
	glEnable(GL_POINT_SPRITE);
	glTexEnvi(GL_POINT_SPRITE, GL_COORD_REPLACE, GL_TRUE);
	glEnable (GL_BLEND);  
	glBlendFunc (GL_ONE, GL_ONE);
	glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture[1]);
	glBegin(GL_POINTS);
		for( int i = 0; i < ParticleCount; i++ )
        {
            glColor4f( Particle[i].Red, 
                       Particle[i].Green, 
                       Particle[i].Blue, 
                       0.3f );
 
	        glVertex3f( Particle[i].p.x,
                        Particle[i].p.y,
                        Particle[i].p.z );
        }
		glEnd();
 
	glPopMatrix();
}

It currently just draws them all the specified RGB color, (0.1,0.8,0.1). Shouldn't it be turning brighter? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Come on, how impatient you are. European people are sleeping at night.

Your code seem correct, you can try some sanity checks like rendering on a grey background to check the additive blend works.

Did you disable depth test ? It may get in the way.

Disabling the depth test fixed it. Thank you.
