Hey Guys!
I just started looking at OpenGL API for VB. I'm allready a bit confused. Several choises are available: MS OpenGL, SGI OpenGL and GLUT. Which one is best to use?
I downloaded a lot of sample programs using OpenGL 1.2 (vbogl.tlb). This API seemed the most used so I started examining the code.
The OpenGL language doesn't seem so difficult to learn. But still, all those gl commands quite confuse me.
My question to you guys out there is: How did you learn it? I read many so-called tutorials, they aren't very usefull. Maybe I havn't found the right one. Where can I find a tutorial witch takes things from scrach?
Besides that, does anyone know why I so often get the "overflow" message when running sample programs?
Thanks in advance. Pace.
