2D Game library that uses OpenGL but works great with Linux

I'm looking for a library like "cocos2d-x" that abstracts the OpenGL library for 2D games. I don't need to make 3D games, I'm just need all power of OpenGL for a 2D game. The problem with "cocos2d-x" is have a poor support for Linux (not stable only "usable") and requires a relative high version of OpenGL, that means a lot of "middle age"...

SDL_Surface to OpenGL texture problem.

Hello. I have a bit of a problem, so a little help from someone more experienced would be appreciated. :-) I've been using SDL for a few months, and have gotten quite good at it and started making my first game. But now I want my game to use hardware accelerated rendering because software rendering won't cut it any more, so I started look...

Gtk# and OpenGL?

I'm really new to using Gtk# and Mono with Xamarin and I'm trying to get up to speed with C# and OpenGL. I tried googling Gtk# with OpenGL, but no real results came of it. I'm an experienced user of OpenGL already and have the basics of C# down already. My primary language is C/C++, so that's what I'm used to. Does anyone know where I can...

Accelerated OpenGL not found

Forgive me if this question has been asked often before, but... Minecraft isn't working on our RECENTLY upgraded computer. It couldn't play the game at all before the upgrade, because the graphics card was an integrated one, over 5 years old. I just upgraded it to HD 4000, which is built into the Intel-core i3-3225. I researched, and Mine...

Proper memory management in OpenGL on Android devices

We have an app where we draw many things (mostly OpenStreetMap Tiles but also other images) with OpenGL ES 2.0. This works pretty good, but from time to time the app crashes without any information - this means: The app just closes, not a message that it is crashed and also there is no message in logcat. From experiments we've figured out...

OpenGL 1.1 to OpenGL 3 wrapper

Hi. I came across TWL (Themable Widget Library, http://twl.l33tlabs.org/ ) when looking for a GUI library for Java + OpenGL (LWJGL). It looks pretty nice and there is an editor and all. The drawback is that is coded against OpenGL 1.1 spec and I'm using OpenGL 3.3 core. So I looked at the sources to see if I could code a wrapper to get TW...

OpenGL core profile question

I'm trying to learn the modern opengl with the core profile (+3.x) but I don't know the best way to initialize the opengl extensions. Glew was a headache for me. I initialized it (and enabled glew experimental) but for some reason I had problems generating vertex arrays. I think it's because I defined the opengl profile to core profile wi...

called glewInit() but glCreateProgram() still crashes my application

Dealing with a curious issue. I have three projects in Visual Studio (each in separate solutions) 1. glfx0.70 (an OpenGL shader creation library available here . It compiles to a static library 'glfx.lib') 2. my project (a fairly sophisticated game engine). 3. a tutorial project (a barebone opengl application that draws a triangle, that I...

2D Libs/OpenGL Question

I was just wondering what would be the best library/set of libraries for 2D game development on Mac, or if it's best to just use OpenGL? I mean, I've hunted the net a lot lately, and all I've come up with is using SFML in conjunction with OpenGL, but SFML isn't exactly the easiest to install for library use. Something compatible with Xcod...

Splash Screen Issues with GLUT & OpenGL

Hey all, I'm trying to create a splash / welcome screen for a game I'm working on. I had a look online and found some good info but I'm still unable to get it to work.

OpenGL Texture Blur?

Hey, in opengl when I load a texture and stretch it across a face it blurs the picture a bit. I'm guessing this is openGL's default way of stretching textures. Is there a way to change it from texture blur to just normal stretch? For instance: I've drawn an 8*8 pixel image in gimp or something and I put it on a face of a cube in opengl, o...

Looking for a book to learn OpenGL ES 2.0 on android

I have recently started learning OpenGL 2 (not ES). However I read somewhere that the fixed-function pipeline is deprecated in favour of the programmable pipeline that OpenGL 4 and OpenGL ES 2 offers. So I decided to stop learning OpenGL 2 and move to OpenGL 4. The problem is that my laptop has support for only OpenGL 2. That's because my...

Texture transparency brush with OpenGL ES on iPhone

I am new to OpenGL and trying to implement an eraser brush which will erase a texture with brush stroke to reveal the background of the opengl view, by adjusting the alpha value at the the brush stroke. the OpenGL view's opaque property is set to NO. I am using the Apple's GLPaint as a starting point. The brush I am using is a texture who...

Multithreading OpenGL ES on iOS for games

Currently, I have a fixed timestep game loop running on a second thread in my game. The OpenGL context is on the same thread, and rendering is done once per frame after any updates. So the main "loop" has to wait for drawing each frame before it can proceed. This wasn't really a problem until I wrote my particle system. Upwards of 1500+ p...

3D Rotation on 2D Gesture/Movement (OpenGL/Cocos3D)

Loading PNG textures to OpenGL

I'm working on a game, and all of my graphics use magenta as transparent/magic color. They are all 32-bit and the magenta is just for conveniency.
