Constant motion
Author
Hi all,
How would I keep the rotation of my objects consistent regardless of the machine?
Even on one machine, my triangles move faster in full screen mode than in windowed.
How do I fix this?
A time function?
Thanks,
Sean Berry
Well, a simple way of doing it is the following:
glRotatef(timeGetTime()/100.0f,0,1,0);
What this does is make it so that the triangles movement depends on the time elapsed, rather than the value of a variable. The function timGetTime returns the time ellapsed in milliseconds. I divided it by 100 so it wouldn't go too fast.

I tried #include <time.h>, but I still get that bugger of an error.....
[Linker error] undefined reference to ''timeGetTime@0''

You have to add the appropriate .lib file to your project. I think it''s wmm.lib or wmm32.lib or something like that.

Awesome, that worked for the compilation.
But this sailor isn''t out of the storm.
When I run the .exe, I get this familiar error.
The procedure entry point SetPixelFormat could not be located in the dynamic link library winmm.dll
Any ideas?

Make sure you included the lib with an
-lwmm
or
-lwmm32
You should also have at least one space between your included libs. It should look like this, then:
-lopengl32
-lglu32
-lwmm
-lwmm
or
-lwmm32
