PNG Transparancy blending?

Oh well,

For the past 2 days I have been googling and reading as many tutorials as I possible can but it’s time to say I am frustrated.

I am loading a picture with IMG_Load(a png) and I am pretty sure many of you have heard this before.

The problem I have however is that it does not care about the alpha channel. There simply is no transparacy. Might I say I work with 2D pictures. It simply has a white background and it’s being very frustrating.

Here’s my code:


void CSprite::Load (const string sFilename)
{
	// Grafik laden
	m_pImage = IMG_Load (sFilename.c_str () );

	// Prüfen, ob alles glatt ging
	if (m_pImage == NULL)
	{
		cout << "Fehler beim Laden von: " << sFilename.c_str ();
		cout << endl;
		cout << "Fehlermeldung: " << IMG_GetError () << endl;

		// Framework herunterfahren
		g_pFramework->Quit ();

		// Gesamtes Spiel beenden
		exit (1);
	}
	/*glLoadIdentity();
	glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
	glEnable(GL_BLEND);
	glColor4f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
	glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
	glAlphaFunc(GL_GREATER,0.1f);
	glEnable(GL_ALPHA_TEST);*/
	glPixelStorei(GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT, 1);
	glGenTextures(1, &m_pID);
	glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, m_pID);
	glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, 3, m_pImage->w, m_pImage->h, 0, GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, m_pImage->pixels);
	//gluBuild2DMipmaps(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 3, m_pImage->w, m_pImage->h, GL_RGB, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, m_pImage->pixels);
	glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_REPEAT);
	glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_REPEAT);
	glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
	glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);
	glTexEnvi(GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL_MODULATE);
	glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
	/*glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
	glDisable(GL_BLEND);
	glDisable(GL_ALPHA_TEST);*/
	// Rect initialisieren
	m_Rect.x = 0;
	m_Rect.y = 0;
	m_Rect.w = m_pImage->w;
	m_Rect.h = m_pImage->h;

} // Load

void CSprite::Render ()
{
	/*glLoadIdentity();
	glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
	glEnable(GL_BLEND);
	glColor4f(1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
	glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
	glAlphaFunc(GL_GREATER,0.1f);
	glEnable(GL_ALPHA_TEST);*/
	glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, m_pID);
	glBegin(GL_QUADS);
	glTexCoord2f(0.0,0.0);
	glVertex3f(static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.x)-m_Rect.w,static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.y)-m_Rect.h,0.0f);
	glTexCoord2f(1.0,0.0);
	glVertex3f(static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.x), static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.y)-m_Rect.h,0.0f);
	glTexCoord2f(1.0,1.0);
	glVertex3f(static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.x), static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.y),0.0f);
	glTexCoord2f(0.0,1.0);
	glVertex3f(static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.x)-m_Rect.w,static_cast<GLfloat>(m_Rect.y),0.0f);
	glEnd();
	glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
	/*glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
	glDisable(GL_BLEND);
	glDisable(GL_ALPHA_TEST);*/
} // Render

Sorry for the German documentation. I really hope someone can point out what I am obviously not capable of finding out myself. I am very sorry to those who have seen this question a billion times, I really I am frustrated and appreciate ANY help.

Whenever I compile and run my game, this is the result I get:

Thanks in advance!

You requested OpenGL to use RGB as the internal texture format (see number 3 in glTexImage2D call). You should ask for RGBA.


glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, m_pImage ...

Thank you!!! Unbelievable easy mistake wow, 2 of my days gone! Your help was great! =)
