Hello, I am really new to gaming and opengl. I am doing the lessons from NeHe/GameDev and everytime I run any of the programs I get a white screen entitled "window". I am running them on mac os x (cocoa) So I guess it is running properly but maybe there is something that I have left out. I downloaded the code so it seems that it should work. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks, Jackie

If you're just starting out, the NeHe tutorials aren't the best. They cover the basic graphics information, but are outdated for the mac os x specific stuff.

This site is cocoa specific and (slightly) more up to date:
