Hi Everyone,
I''ve been playing around with the tutorials at nehe.gamedev.net and ran into a question about using mapped textures and the color palette. In the 6th tutorial http://nehe.gamedev.net/tutorials/lesson.asp?l=06
you basically map a texture onto a cube drawn with GLQUADS after loading it with
glGenTextures( ) and glBindTexture( ) and glTexImage2D ( )
I was also trying to draw a simple triagle filled with color on the same screen. However when I set the color for the triangle the color of the texture changes or depening on what I change the trangle draws in one of the colors that is in the texture.
The workaround I''ve found is to call glDisable((GL_TEXTURE_2D) draw the triangle and then call glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D) and draw the cube with the texture.
Is it normal to have to do this to switch between drawing a simple color filled shape and a texture filled shape?
GL environment is setup through
int InitGL(GLvoid) // All Setup For OpenGL Goes Here
{
if (!LoadGLTextures())// Jump To Texture Loading Routine
{
return FALSE;
}
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glShadeModel(GL_SMOOTH);
glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.5f);
glClearDepth(1.0f);
glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
glDepthFunc(GL_LEQUAL);
glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, GL_NICEST);
return TRUE;
}
int DrawGLScene(GLfloat xaxis,GLfloat yaxis,GLfloat rot) // Here''s Where We Do All The Drawing
{
GLfloat colorarray[4];
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); // Clear Screen And Depth Buffer
glGetFloatv(GL_CURRENT_COLOR,colorarray);
glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glLoadIdentity(); // Reset The Current Modelview Matrix
glTranslatef(-1.5f,0.0f,-12.0f); // Left 1.5 Then Into Screen Six Units
glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
glColor3f(1.0f,0.0f,0.0f); // Set The Color To Red
glVertex3f( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f); // Move Up One Unit From Center (Top Point)
glColor3f(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f); // Set The Color To Green
glVertex3f(-1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f); // Left And Down One Unit (Bottom Left)
glColor3f(0.0f,0.0f,1.0f); // Set The Color To Blue
glVertex3f( 1.0f,-1.0f, 0.0f); // Right And Down One Unit (Bottom Right)
glEnd(); // Done Drawing A Triangle
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glLoadIdentity(); //reset our draw points so the square is static
glTranslatef(-0.0f,0.0f,-10.0f); //Move the square back in the z buffer
glRotatef(xrot,1.0f,0.0f,0.0f); // Rotate On The X Axis
glRotatef(yrot,0.0f,1.0f,0.0f); // Rotate On The Y Axis
glRotatef(zrot,0.0f,0.0f,1.0f); // Rotate On The Z Axis

which is the default texture. It is just plain white. Any color you send will be blended with the white, just like there is no texture there.
