Weird Translations
Author
So I set up a program using C++ (cocoa) and OpenGL and told it to translate some stuff for me. I would press w to translate one way and x to translate another. I told it to increment these translations by 0.1 and whenever I get past 0.3 or -0.3, it will keep getting smaller or bigger until it goes off the screen, no matter which one I press. File is given below, stats in my signature.

Your source file is blocked. (SC_AUTHORIZATION_REQUIRED!!!)
Hmm... I don't know what that is... it worked on my computer, but it might just be in my keychain... I'm still learning how to work this dotmac stuff... will post when it's updated...
You can just paste your code directly into your post (use [source] tags to preserve formatting).

Will that work for 100+ lines of code?
EDIT: Try this:

Still asks for a username and password.
You could put your code in here, just be sure to use source tags like this:
Code goes here!Otherwise, your 100+ lines would stretch on for a while, cluttering the thread. Making the actual file available is better when you have that much source to show, so maybe just find a different host server to put it up somewhere or something.

Here goes nothing!

You realize that in one second you can have over 60 frames and that would lead to moving at least 6 units per second. My advice would be to set a breaker after like 50 loops in the draw section and see what your ztrans value is. If it seems right, then its your translation, otherwise it might just be your actual ztrans, which is whats wrong most of the time with mine.
There are a couple of things in your code I'm not sure about, but I would try adding a call to glLoadIdentity() before the line:
glTranslatef(0.0, 0.0, ztrans);This topic is closed to new replies.
