Hi everyone!
My first message 
.
Recently I started to learn OpenGL.
And here’s a little result:
I wrote it yesterday and now I’m kinda proud of this program . It’s my first more or less seriously written OpenGL app.
I decided to show it here. May be some of you can comment on my program?
Here’s the link http://www.gamedev.ru/download/?id=468
On that page you’ll find a link called pr.tar.bz2 – that’s it.
How to use it:
To launch my app you’ll need OpenGL and SDL libraries.
I’ve included compiled binary in my archive, but you may build it from scratch by issuing “make clean; make” on command line.
After execution my program recognizes the following keys:
<space> – enable/disable scene rotation
<Tab> – scatter/gather particles (this is my favorite )
F – toggle fullscreen
Note. At the moment my app can’t adjust its speed by taking in account speed of your system. I made a dirty trick: you can change the speed by passing a number to my app as a command line parameter
(for ex.: ./cursor 1000). Greater this number – slower is the program, lower this number – faster the program. By default program assumes the speed of 1000. This renders quite well on my P4 2.6, 64MB Nvidia Geforce4 MX440SE system. If you havent any HW accel, try setting the speed to 200-500, or if you have a much better video hardware than me, try 2000-5000.
O-o-oh, that took a long to write this message .
Hope to hear your feedback!
PS. Really sorry for my terrible English!
