How can I program for OpenGL beyond version 1.1 in windows?

Forum FAQ - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums
Although the current OpenGL version is 1.5 (as of 2004/03/29) , and this has been implemented by all major hardware manufacturers, Microsoft has only released OpenGL32.dll and OpenGl32.lib files corresponding to version OpenGL 1.1. In order to use newer core functions or any OpenGL extensions, you have to link the functions you want manually. To do this, download the latest glext.h from SGI.com which includes typedefs for all registered extension functions. After including glext.

What's that grid-like pattern of dots I see all over the screen? It's annoying me, and it doesn't happen with [some other PlayStation emulator(s)]! It's a little something called "dithering," which is done natively on the real PlayStation. You probably don't notice this on the TV because of the inherent differences between a television and a computer monitor. You probably don't see this in the other emulator(s) because the emulator isn't emulating the dithering. A[2]. [As of pSX 1.

TOP] How do I make OpenGL GL calls from within an OpenGL Performer program?

SGI - OpenGL Performer: Frequently Asked Questions
OpenGL GL calls can only be made from a process that has a OpenGL GL context. In multiprocess OpenGL Performer applications only the draw process has OpenGL GL context, so you must make your OpenGL GL calls in a function called in the draw process. The pipe initialization callback, draw function callback, and node draw callbacks are all executed in the draw process.

When I try to run my application, it says: "Can't find Wordpad" What is going on?

FAQ
This should only happen now if you have an obsolete version. Wordpad has not been used as the text editor since the beginning of the year. It could be that you don't have it installed. It only comes with NT 4.0 and Windows 95, and it is an optional installation item. Even if it's loaded, we might not find it. If that happens, please let us know and we will be glad to help you figure out what is going on.

What is OpenGL?

OpenGL FAQs - WikiFAQ - Answers to Frequently Asked Question...
OpenGL(R) is the software interface for graphics hardware that allows graphics programmers to produce high-quality color images of 3D objects. OpenGL is a rendering only, vendor neutral API providing 2D and 3D graphics functions, including modelling, transformations, color, lighting, smooth shading, as well as advanced features like texture mapping, NURBS, fog, alpha blending and motion blur. OpenGL works in both immediate and retained (display list) graphics modes.

What do I need to compile and run OpenGL programs?

OpenGL FAQ / 2 Getting Started
To compile and link OpenGL programs, you'll need OpenGL header files and libraries. To run OpenGL programs you may need shared or dynamically loaded OpenGL libraries, or a vendor-specific OpenGL Installable Client Driver (ICD) specific to your device. Also, you may need include files and libraries for the GLU and GLUT libraries. Where you get these files and libraries will depend on which OpenGL system platform you're using.

When I run in OpenGL mode it is incredibly slow. Why is that?

Active Worlds Help ~ Frequently Asked Questions about Active...
This is a common problem on older video cards. Many older video cards provide no formal support for OpenGL in hardware. This causes OpenGL to emulate most or all rendering functions in software instead, which is extremely slow. You will be much better off running in either Direct3D or software mode instead.

My video card says it has OpenGL hardware acceleration, will this help AGI-Light?

AGI-Light FAQs
Also, the hardware acceleration will speed up the display and manipulation of the system in render mode. Hardware Acceleration means that there are custom silicon chips present on the card which can perform select graphic and mathematical tasks, several hundred times faster than the general purpose CPU of the computer. These were once limited to very expensive professional cards but with the large numbers of 3D computer simulation games, the cost has come down significantly.

You do not necessarily need to work on a CDF account in order to complete the assignment (e.g., you can work from home on a PC using Visual Studio for example or Linux at home). However, all assignments should be able to be compiled and executed on the CDF based machines. In addition, you will have to submit via your CDF account. If you do work at home, I would suggest using Visual Studio 6.

How can my program find out if the user has OpenGL hardware acceleration?

Delphi3D - Rapid OpenGL Development
When initializing a device context, Windows will return a pixel format descriptor structure (PFD) to you, describing the capabilities of your DC. In the dwFlags field of this PFD, check if the PFD_GENERIC_FORMAT flag is set. If so, the pixel format in question is only available through Microsoft's GDI generic OpenGL renderer, which means no hardware acceleration. When you're using C, any command line arguments for your program are passed as parameters to the main() function.

How will I know which OpenGL version my program is using?

OpenGL FAQ / 23 Extensions and Versions
It's commonplace for the OpenGL version to be named as a C preprocessor definition in gl.h. This enables your application to know the OpenGL version at compile time. To use this definition, your code might look like: #ifdef GL_VERSION_1_2 // Use OpenGL 1.2 functionality #endif OpenGL also provides a mechanism for detecting the OpenGL version at run time. An app may call glGetString(GL_VERSION), and parse the return string. The first part of the return string must be of the form [major-number].
