Heightmap Collision
Author
I changed this from being about heightmaps to terrain Collision. I used the nehe heightmap stuff, now I need to figure out terrain collision. I tried using this in the draw function for the terrain:
at the end of the function, but it didn't even detect a collision. i originally had it right before glEnd(); but that got really weird results. It had me way up above the terrain. Can someone give a quick snippet for terrain collision, or a link with theory or code for it, or even better, both?

I tried doing some searching but still can't find anything. Hate to bump again, but I can't seem to get this working.
Why in the draw function? How about the step function?
That looks very messy and doesn't seem like it'll work. How about:
I'm assuming 0 and 16 are the width and depth of your height map/terrain. Also the '&&' is an operator, in small terms which means, 'and'.
Hope that helps at all.

Thanks for replying, but it didn't do the trick. and, there is no step function...
here's the whole render function:

here's the whole render function:

What are you trying to get at exactly? How wide and long is your terrain? What results are you getting? Are you trying to make the camera stop if it goes to far or what?
So you mean, walking over the height map, right?
Then you should put down anywhere, easily: objCamera.mPos.y=Height(pHeightMap, X + STEP_SIZE, Y );
That should do it. If not, post the results as in, you don't go up the height map at all, or you didn't actually walk over it, but you kinda did... stuff like that.

now my camera ends up at the height of the tallest peak.
Thanks for all the help so far, btw. rating++.

So, my guess this is not what you want?
[looks over code] Do you have a GetHeight Function? You need to call the height from the X and Z position to find the Y, which will be your height.
