Graphics / How to texture a sphere?

« on: July 03, 2009, 12:50:13 pm »

I may have found a solution: does anyone know of an example of the Bind() function of the Image class, used in conjunction with a gluSphere.
Thanks!

Hi
For a game I am making, I need to draw a sphere, representing a planet.
However, I cannot work out how do texture a sphere create dwith this code, by using a sf::Image

Code: [Select]

gluSphere(params,25,20,20);
Thanks for any help that can be offered

Graphics / Getting absolute coordinates

« on: December 07, 2008, 01:47:36 pm »

I found what was wrong!
It was a REALLY stupid mistake!
I put :

sf::Vector2f MousePosAbsolute = displayWindow.ConvertCoords(displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseX(), displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseY());
                           
Instead of :

sf::Vector2f MousePosAbsolute = displayWindow.ConvertCoords(displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseX(), displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseY(), &view);

It does exactly what I want now  

Thanks to all for your help and patience

Well...
This cant be good...
I recompiled, the same code as before, and got the same result.
The convertCoordinates function doesnt appear to do anything:

Type 1:5:5
Type 2:5:5
Type 1:11:3
Type 2:11:3
Type 1:10:6
Type 2:10:6
Type 1:6:4
Type 2:6:4
Type 1:5:6
Type 2:5:6
Type 1:9:4
Type 2:9:4
Type 1:7:2
Type 2:7:2
Type 1:7:5
Type 2:7:5
Type 1:13:5
Type 2:13:5
Type 1:12:2
Type 2:12:2
Type 1:11:2
Type 2:11:2
Type 1:10:5
Type 2:10:5
Type 1:14:6
Type 2:14:6

Is this an error caused by me?

Thanks, hadnt seen that.
But I am using linux(gcc), and when I do make install, it tells me the libs are missing.
I tried using the old ones, but no cigar.
Should the .so s be on the SVN?
Thanks for the help so far!

Well, as far as I could tell, I only had to copy the new include file to the correct directory. I recompiled, and.... :

 :shock:  ARGH!
Did I forget a step, cos this code worked fine before.

In any case, I'm sure that there is a bug. With this code:

Code: [Select]

sf::Vector2f MousePosAbsolute = displayWindow.ConvertCoords(displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseX(), displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseY());
                            sf::Vector2f MousePosB;
                            MousePosB.x = displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseX();
                            MousePosB.y = displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseY();
                            std::cout << "Type 1:" << ((int)MousePosB.x - (int)MousePosB.x%64)/64 << ":" << ((int)MousePosB.y - (int)MousePosB.y%64)/64 << std::endl;
                            std::cout << "Type 2:" << ((int)MousePosAbsolute.x - (int)MousePosAbsolute.x%64)/64 << ":" << ((int)MousePosAbsolute.y - (int)MousePosAbsolute.y%64)/64 << std::endl;


I get this (and I do move the view around):

Type 1:0:0
Type 2:0:0
Type 1:1:0
Type 2:1:0
Type 1:2:0
Type 2:2:0
Type 1:3:0
Type 2:3:0
Type 1:4:0
Type 2:4:0
Type 1:0:0
Type 2:0:0
Type 1:1:0
Type 2:1:0
Type 1:2:0
Type 2:2:0
Type 1:3:0
Type 2:3:0
Type 1:4:0
Type 2:4:0

I'm gonna try installing the SVN version now.

Its really weird: no matter which I try, I get the same result: the coordinates that I clicked from the views point of view, rather than those of the world.
I am SURE that shouldnt be happening  :shock:
Should I try the SVN version?

I thought that THAT was used to get the position relative to the view.

So there isnt one in the current, stable 1.3 version of SFML?

Hi everyone!
Thanks to Wizzard, I managed to make a fair amount of progress, but I have hit another snag: I need to get the absolute coordinates of a point when it is clicked (so, not relative to the sf::View, but to the world itself). I tried

Code: [Select]

sf::Vector2f MousePosAbsolute;
                            MousePosAbsolute.x = displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseX();
                            MousePosAbsolute.y = displayWindow.GetInput().GetMouseY();
But it didnt seem to work.
Have I done something wrong? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks!
