Porting GL to GFX?

by John McGlamory · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 10/07/2006 (2:01 pm) · 5 replies

Awhile back I found a thread or a resource that had a list of GL functions and their GFX equivalents to help people port code. I could have sworn I bookmarked it, but I seem to have lost it. I've spent awhile now searching the site for many combinations using the following keywords: 'tse dgl gfx gl directx porting' but nothing showed up.

I clearly remember it being in a reponse to a thread or resource with a list comparing the fuctions. Can anyone help me find it? I am trying to port some old resources to TSE and I am not the best coder, so any guides I can find, the better!

Thanks in advance!

I am mainly an artist, but I love tinkering with engines like T3D, TGEA, TGE, T2D, Leadwerks and ShiVa. I know enough about scripting and coding to follow good directions.

    That's it! Thank you! Now maybe I can get some things ported to TSE. I really appreciate you showing me this again.

    That post is restricted to RTS-kits owners only :(

    Any chance you could post it here (unless it constains anything RTS-Kit specifik ofcourse) ?

    pleeease :)

    GlDisable(GL_LIGHTING);
    GFX->setLightingEnable(false);

    glPushMatrix();
    GFX->pushWorldMatrix();

    dglMultMatrix(&getRenderTransform());
    GFX->multWorld(getRenderTransform());

    glDisable(GL_DEPTH_TEST);
    GFX->setZEnable(false);

    glColor3f(1, 1, 1);
    wireCube(Point3F(0.1,0.1,0.1),mDataBlock->massCenter);
    GFX->drawWireCube(Point3F(0.1,0.1,0.1),mDataBlock->massCenter, ColorI(255, 255, 255));

    glPopMatrix();
    GFX->popWorldMatrix();

    dglMultMatrix(-----);
    GFX->multWorld( const MatrixF &mat )

    dglProjectRadius
    GFX->projectRadius

    dglDrawLine( x1, y1, x2, y2, colour );
    GFX->drawLine( x1, y1, x2, y2, colour );
