Hi everybody have not posted in a while. In all truth i am stuck but very close to finding the collision answer.

Note 1 (Most of this skelton was premade for the assignment).
Some variables i don;t even know what they do like Vy1. Incx, Incy.
Stuff like the file stream was added by me to try and get my collisions to work as qt hates intersectwith comes up with an error. using the console to find the location of my squares seems a good idea.

Please can someone point out how to form a collision using intersectswith in opengl as i have tried the standard way. Or help me create a collision between my squares in some way.

I am also thinking about calling the routine i store in the text file back into the QT editior while i compare the values as they are called from the file.

why has this thread being moved to c.

its c++ not c.

What you mean by saying that -

Or help me create a collision between my squares in some way.

Are you trying to implement collision detection ?
If yes - try looking in google, there are plenty of sites on that subject, for example-
http://www.gamespp.com/algorithms/collisiondetection/

If no,- I don't understand what your problem is.
