Hi, I've been testing GLFW joystick, trying to write a simple program to rotate a cube with the joystick. The fact that I'm using GLFW may complicate matters for debugging, but it's the only OpenGL library with joystick support that i have found. I don't believe that it should be simple to port to GLUT, just comment out the GLFW calls...
when i rotate the cube some faces obscure other faces regardless of which way they are facing. so i simplified to two quads, one in front, and one in back, and it exhibits the same problem, when rotated to 180 the front face is still drawn in front of the back face. the origin is centered between them.
if you have a joystick, the axes are off, i didn't match them yet. if you don't have a joystick the two faces will rotate about the y axis in an animation.
I think my code is missing something simple, but I can't seem to figure it out. the code isn't short, but I've posted longer...
#include <cstdlib>
#include <stdlib.h> // For malloc() etc.
#include <stdio.h> // For printf(), fopen() etc.
#include <iostream> // For cout
#include <math.h> // For sin(), cos() etc.
#include <GL/glfw.h> // For GLFW, OpenGL and GL
//For animation if no joystick is preasent.
double angle=0.0;
void Draw( void ){
int width, height; // Window dimensions
double t; // Time (in seconds)
// Get current time
t = glfwGetTime();
// Get window size
glfwGetWindowSize( &width, &height );
// Make sure that height is non-zero to avoid division by zero
height = height < 1 ? 1 : height;
// Set viewport
glViewport( 0, 0, width, height );
// Clear color and depht buffers
glClearColor( 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f );
//glClearDepth(-10000);
glClear( GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT );
// Set up projection matrix
glMatrixMode( GL_PROJECTION ); // Select projection matrix
glLoadIdentity(); // Start with an identity matrix
glOrtho(-2,2,-2,2,-2,2);
// Set up modelview matrix
glMatrixMode( GL_MODELVIEW ); // Select modelview matrix
glLoadIdentity(); // Start with an identity matrix
