Hi all!
I had an “error” that I put some times to “understand”.
In fact, I tried to create a second camera to look at my main camera. This camera was just for debbuging a viewing frustum culling.
What I did was : create a glViewport(0,0,screenWidth, screenHeight), render my main camera. Then create another glViewport(screenWidth/2, screenHeight/2, screenWidth/2, screenHeight/2) and render my second camera in it.
The result was nearly great, except that the rendering of my second camera operated only in a screen that was the quarter of the glViewport, and the remaining part was black.
so if I schematize :
__________________
| | | C|
| | |___|
| | B |
| |________|
| |
| A |
| |
|_________________|
A represent the part in which my main camera was rendered, B represent a part that was black, and C the part on which my second camera was rendered.
After some tries, I used glViewport(0,0,screenWidth/2, screenHeight/2) and it worked well. No more black part. It seems that it is because I was doing offscreen rendering using FBO.
My question is : Can someone explains to me what happened? Why did I have this strange behavior?
Thanks!
