I know that since you can''t bind a texture that is currently in use, an error pops up if you try. How do I see if a certain texture is being used at the moment? Thanx. |-|A[k3R$Z R \/\/|-|AT |V|Ak3 t|-|3 \/\/0R|_D g0 R0|_||\|D!!

the only way I know of is storing the texture id yourself
ie

  

GLuint BoundTexture;

void __fastcall TextureLibClass::BindTexture(int Index)
{
  if(glTextureIDs[Index] != BoundTexture){
    glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,glTextureIDs[Index];
    BoundTexture = glTextureIDs[Index];
  }
}


hope this helps.

i dont understand u can bind a texture more than once yes its redundant but u shouldnt get an error

ie theres nothing wrong with the following
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,texture)
draw someit
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,texture)
draw someit
