OpenGL MD2 Loading

I decided to play around with loading different types of content into my engine (since I am very content starved). MD2 files are readily available on the internet, so I figured it'd be a fun afternoon project to get md2 loading working.

It's just about there, however there are some UV mapping issues. The issue stems from how I process my models before commiting them to a VBO. I expect each vertex to have a single UV co-ordinate, which is not the case for an md2 file. Hence the strange UV mapping on some areas of the body. I'll have this fixed for tomorrow. Until then, I give you PKnight (model courtesy of the NeHe tutorials).

do you still have the source code of your program? i have already searched google for md2 model loaders, but there were no one which support animation .. and im not able to write one.

Hi, I'm doing an Augmented Reality application where I'm creating my own models. Would you recommend OBJ or MD2? thanks

MD2 files suck, obj are way better and simpler
