It works fine with ogl 2, but it doesnt draw in opengl 3, why is that?

      window.pushGLStates();

      window.draw(sf::RectangleShape(sf::Vector2f(100, 100)));

      window.popGLStates();

Yes I do have sfml 2.3, Making a pixel array is much more efficient than image.setPixel, isn't it?

General / Negative calculations when using triggernomatry so that an object faces cursor

« on: September 26, 2015, 05:22:51 pm »

Sorry for the long title. Whenever the rotation of the object exceeds 180(degrees) when the rotation is supposed to be 350 its -10, 340 = -20, 330 = -30, and so on.

       const float PI = 3.14159265;

   int mx = sf::Mouse::getPosition(window).x;
   int my = sf::Mouse::getPosition(window).y;

   int tmp_rot = (atan2(my - y, mx - x)) * 180 / PI;

   rot = tmp_rot;

I am making a multiplayer top-down shooter, I am familiar with tcp but considering how fast udp is, is it worth it?
