Hi,
I try to create particle simulation (I’m beginner with OpenGl and Cuda). In my simulation I use code from Cuda Sdk (Particles).
OK, let me explain my problem: I render 1k particles and move them. Everything works fine until particle are near the center of coordinate system…
The problem is that they grow(each particle has const radius so its unexpected situation - picture below)… and I really don’t know why.
Can u help me?
My code:
function void init()
GLuint pointsVBO;
float3 *pointsVBO_device; // device pointer for VBO
struct cudaGraphicsResource *pointsVBO_Resource;
const float radius = 0.2;
void init(void)
{
GLenum err = glewInit();
if (GLEW_OK != err) exit(0);
initializePositionsAndVelocities();
void **v_device_addr;
cudaGetSymbolAddress ((void **)&v_device_addr, "v_device");
cudaMemcpy (v_device_addr, velocities, sizeof(float3) * N, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice );
glGenBuffers(1,&pointsVBO);
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, pointsVBO);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(points), points, GL_STREAM_DRAW);
cudaGraphicsGLRegisterBuffer(&pointsVBO_Resource, pointsVBO, cudaGraphicsMapFlagsNone );
glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
glShadeModel(GL_SMOOTH);
glClearColor(0.0f,0.0f,0.0f,0.0f);
glClearDepth(1.0f);
glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT,GL_NICEST);
glHint(GL_POINT_SMOOTH_HINT,GL_NICEST);
}
function compileProgram()
GLuint compileProgram(const char *vsource, const char *fsource)
{

GLuint fragmentShader = glCreateShader(GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER);
glShaderSource(vertexShader, 1, &vsource, 0);
glShaderSource(fragmentShader, 1, &fsource, 0);
glCompileShader(vertexShader);
glCompileShader(fragmentShader);
GLuint program = glCreateProgram();
glAttachShader(program, vertexShader);
glAttachShader(program, fragmentShader);
glLinkProgram(program);
// check if program linked
GLint success = 0;
glGetProgramiv(program, GL_LINK_STATUS, &success);
if (!success) {
char temp[256];
glGetProgramInfoLog(program, 256, 0, temp);
printf("Failed to link program:

glDeleteProgram(program);
program = 0;
}
return program;
}
