Wire GPU Tutorial: by Drunkie

[Drunkie]

Well, I'm sure the video works fine for 99% of people viewing this thread. Just dont use firefox lol.

[Drunkie]

I see that alot of people are still viewing this thread according to the view count. Does anyone have any suggestions for content or examples they'd like me to make? I'm in the mood to make some GPU stuff, so now would be the time to request things, or ask questions.

[Drunkie]

Thank you Matte for inspiring me to learn matrix projection for the GPU.

:O Nice!

I wanna remake the whole alphabet and display strings in 3d, but some letters have way too many polygons.

Also, I wish there was an easier way to plot all the vertices with db. Would be nice to make a program that does it for you.

Added another example; this ones a 3D Icosphere.

[Fizyk]

Why call it an icosphere when it's an icosahedron?

[Drunkie]

Why call it an icosphere when it's an icosahedron?

The name kinda stuck to me because I based the 3D shape upon the hologram icosphere model.
But yeah it's an icosahedron.

Could somebody please explain how I could, using E2/Wirelink, get a vec2f with inputted values in the GPU?
I know how to get numbers and strings, but I saw nothing in the tutorial about getting vec2fs.

[Bull]

Use E2 to write the x and y component to two different cells.

mov #whateveryourvectoriscalled.x , #54732 ; <- random typed numbers
mov #whateveryourvectoriscalled.y , #54733 ;

and define the vec2f as normal.
