C++/OpenGL basic particle system

[lancka1]

sorry for any inconveniance, but does anyone has the source code please. It seems that the link JasperK91 posted doesn't exist anymore. JasperK91 can you repost it or send it to me(lenfant89@hotmail.com). Thanks.



[Grandboy3000]

what exactly is a particle system i dont really know... sorry if this is a nooby question but im new to opengl.

[FrozenIceCweam]

@Grandboy3000 The term particle system refers to a computer graphics technique to simulate certain fuzzy phenomena, which are otherwise very hard to reproduce with conventional rendering techniques.

[BannyBunch]

better you if you do it on max or maya

[Q3o5]

thats hard to do!

[DROCKERDGREAT]

I CAN DO THAT!

[0121ryanh117]

Very nice.

[JuanitoDCRK]

VAlla que es una excelente `programación

[becrain]

C/C++ are definitely better than C#..

btw, nice work

[linuxrobotdude]

Because C# is a microsoft language. Go Linux! OpenGL works there too.

[wow6bigbang6wow]

lol

[namboodman]

sexy...

:)

[wasitrealy]

LOL, I'm 11 and it looks like I'm not getting along with C++, I'll stick with C#!

[crazymanny00]

you'll have to convert one day

[alginonico]

I find c++ easier. :)

[point6000x]

I think youre good I C and C++ - im not - im a beginner - and 12 years old -.-" - can you telle me how I can do a COUNTER with time and not a variable with a value of 50000 and then let count it down and if its @ 0 its stops... how I use time?

[Goottimaagi]

Dont start on C++.. use Basic languages at first, like visual basic.

[yourmomisrandom]

I strongly disagree with that, my first systems language was C++, and then i "upgraded" to D. Visual Basic has a syntax that is retarded as hell, forces you to use their proprietary compiler, and produces slow executables. Plus once you get into real languages, you'll still have to learn everything from pointers to basic debugging and how a computer really works. Don't waste your time on VB, learn python or ruby instead, which are still very useful to use along C++.

[vladhacker]

LOL HE IS RIGHT VB SUCKS MY BALLZ!

[point6000x]

*laughting* C++ is a laguane for her own ...

(damn keyboerd)

[yourmomisrandom]

C++ is merely a superset of C.

[salmiak911]

point6000x: You mean like a timer? You still gonna need variables.

Lookup the ctime header in your manpages, it should be something like

man ctime

I can't remember exactly and I'm on windows now 'cuz I wanna play some games from Valve.

I hate Microsoft, I think DirectX is a way of theirs to get a monoply on the market ( Most games uses DX, and you can only use DX on a MS platform.... So in order to play, you needs windows. Thanx to MS that they have a free RC for Win7 )

[MiraiWarren]

Hating M$ for developing DirectX won't make more games available for your Mac or Linux box. Write to some of your favorite game developers and ask them for cross platform games, and encourage others to do so. Finally, if it actually bothers you, stop playing games on windows; that's simple.

[salmiak911]

I don't play games on Windows anymore ;)

And on my Ubuntu workstation; I do work. And I guesses that I'm weird that installs win for a week or so once a year to take out my agressions ( or something ) in some bloody games, but I can't stay in win 'cuz it's stupidity makes me even more agressive ;)

I actually thinks it's fun to work - in Ubuntu; in winDOS it's just a pain...

[salmiak911]

Is it just to me it happens or are the comment threading non-functioning here at YT?

[SoulReaper1680]

happens to me aswell, infact alot of people

really gay

[omniscientken]

@salmiak911 I use to do the same thing... Then wine was available. When I need to do other things like program in a windows environment, i simply use vbox. That doesn't work anymore though.... because libraries like directx are not supported. I need two computers... Or do a partition. I'm too lazy to do either one right now lol.

[bs09110148]

@omniscientken can i have the source code to look at? i had search many ways for doing water fountain, and i had try to read some journal too..

[salmiak911]

Use Linux and you'll get less trojans than windows. :D

[metoren]

@dav1dhoang uh?

[SeriousIlya]

Great physics! With texture it will look just right. maybe you should also create the physics where the particles face angles depending on their velocity (eg., facing down when falling down) and maybe a transparency animation when it shrinks

[alin116]

good job man. very good:)

[augis1996]

What is OPEN GL???????????

[wowlaxis]

your mother

[digitalxn3]

his mother is OPEN GL? lol.

[wowlaxis]

yup 100%

[homerVSburns]

There are people that shouldnt use a computer...

You'll find one in your mirror

[point6000x]

insult - spam

[bogoid]

Open GL is an open graphics library.

[Alusaint]

how long did it take you to learn c++

[coldly00]

900 years

[RapidNova]

Not only did he learn C++, he also learned OpenGL functions, and interigated them into C++ =]

[shadoweye9]

Good video c++ rocks

[sfxthebeast]

hey my name is jasper ko, are you my long lost relative ;)

[hombretopito]

im 11 and im making opengl 3d graphic from a year ago with common lisp, dont believe in ventasmentos, he is old

[4ndyman93]

I am 14 years old to :P And I am making a gami... But I am not using C++ I am using Dark Basic Pro and I rember the most difficult thing! It was the collision! is it hard to set up a collision between camera and aobject in C++?

[a7327626]

Does dark basic have the "Type" function? if it doesn't you may want to try Blitz Basic instead. I can email you a copy of the installer if you pm me.

If you have a knowledge of object orientation, you should find making particle programs easier.

[PissedJelly]

C++~=classes

noob

[Kodandis]

I'd recommend you first try something easy like CoolBasic. It's a free game programming language (most of the documentation is in a wierd language (finnish) but the forums are filled with people who like to help out those who don't understand it). Then move on to C++. I'm 14 and I can write somewhat simple OpenGL programs, like particle engines ( make this one to use textures, btw. otherwise its great) and I'm working on some kind of system to load 3D objects.

[JasperK91]

Sourcecode could be retreaved from 'ww w. maartenz. org / ~jasper/ effects. rar'! It includes all the sourc code + vcproject file!

PS: don't forget to get glub32.dll

[Ventasmentos]

Man, thats nice. It kinda give me a boost 'bout C++. Still reading some beginner books, but really, as a fourteen years old it's kinda hard :P Even if algebra is easy! I just can't decide if it's going t obe DirectX or OpenGL :\

[paperback333]

heh, i'm 14 too, i really want to get into graphics C++ programming. Just having trouble finding places to learn :P

[Ventasmentos]

Almost every 14 year old gamers dream is to become a game developer. C++ made me become more handy in front of a computer. But also found that knowing a little bit of programming before starting at C++ really could help you alot :S :P

[paperback333]

I've used PHP for more then a year now, and I can tell the differences and ways they're similar, that's helped me a lot.

[Ventasmentos]

There's alot of books out there to help you out :) I found the 'Beginning C++ Game Programming' was really useful. However, it'd might not be as useful for nongamers: It explains everything in game possibilities. It's console application.

[teamuny]

uhm... im 13... and i googled how to make computer games and stuff... got the aim name of this guy that helped me get started... ... im sure he wouldnt mind u askin some questions... pm me for his aim

[Oblivionmodder23]

You know whats weird? Im 14 too and want to make a game (although i can mod pretty good)

[Jettboi93]

wtf

[Oblivionmodder23]

and? your 15.

[Jettboi93]

yes!

[jiros1]

You are right, that is weird

[Dubaifreak]

Ah man I gotta learn using Dev++ and others like TurboCompiler and stuff are way easy to use.

Great results Though!!

[bigbddog99]

can i get the cod for this so i can laern what it does im in a c++ class now thank you

[waltzone]

I like this

[JasperK91]

I can give u the source code if u want

[waltzone]

Really?

Could you send it at "bizontain　@yahoo　.co　.jp"?

You are so good programmer while you are young.

[JasperK91]

You could download the source at 'ww w. maartenz. org / ~jasper/ effects. rar'

[JasperK91]

remove spaces

[waltzone]

Thanks! I need to be studied more.

[JasperK91]

I could record some tutorials for making this but it's a lot of work...

[ratkumchase101]

Jasperk91 can give me the source code?

Can you please make a tutorial of how to install opengl with C++
