Since then I have been working on shaders in the workbook, I have completed ambient and diffuse 1. I aim to complete all the shaders before applying them to my coursework.
Could do with adding a skybox and it really does need those shaders.
I've still got to use triangle strips and get them working but in the meantime I made a texture and obtained a height map and made a 3D map of Edinburgh (using the triangle mesh) with my modified method that takes a height parameter. Since then I have been working on shaders in the workbook, I have completed ambient and diffuse 1. I aim to complete all the shaders before applying them to my coursework. Is it worth mentioning that I put in a check to find the OpenGL provider and adjusted the move speed based off it because NVidia is so slow (sorry, more precise)?

Finally started the graphics coursework. Visual Studio hates me. I eventually got it to render something. Then I moved on to planes (something I never got to in the work book) and managed to create one. I've taken the plane creation method from the object generator and modified it to accept height values.
I'm currently testing it against 2 sine waves and have noticed that the y values for each quad do not meet each other at the vertices. I'll do some maths to change that. Eventually, once I've fixed that bit, I will read in a bit map and use the greyscale values to create an array of heights instead of using my sine wave values. The shaders are fun.
The ongoing assessment... is getting harder. Things are going well, assuming I can keep up with the coursework too. Why is this getting so many views? Who are you people? This isn't an interesting blog. Maybe it's the Google bot making its rounds. If I ever wanted a colour sampler in a website for hex values I could have an image and an input box and a button and the image src would be "http://www.colorhexa.com/" + inputText + ".png"
