hello, i have a problem here on a terrain rendering… i just started using
display lists and i wanted to divide the heightmap in 4 continous display
lists!
well to prepare a single display list for the heightmap i did nothing more
than this:
unsigned int list = glGenLists(NumberOfLists);
glNewList(list, GL_COMPILE);
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
for (j=0; j<map_height; j++)
{
for (i=0; i<map_width; i++)
{
for (ti=0; ti<2; ti++)
{
glVertex3fv(Triangles[i][j][ti].Vertex[0]);
glVertex3fv(Triangles[i][j][ti].Vertex[1]);
glVertex3fv(Triangles[i][j][ti].Vertex[2]);
}
}
glEnd();
glEndList();
this would give me a display list for the heightmap…
well this was slow and i heard that dividing the display list is smaller
display lists would make things faster…
then i tried it!
im trying to divide it in 4 parts… the problem is this:
| | |
| 1 | 2 |
|---|---|
| 3 | 4 |
it seems to me that it only renders two parts of the terrain… sumtin like
1 & 4, or 2 & 3… always in the diagonal line…
here is the code i do: can anyone tell me what can be wrong or what have i
missed?
