The primary outcome of this research was knowledge of how OpenGL creates and displays objects and how it allows objects to change over time. Most of the background research that was done in preperation for this project consisted of online tutorials to get all of the members comfortable using OpenGL and a lot of experimentation with example code. Going into this project, half of the team had not used C++ or OpenGL before and the other half had a reasonable amount of experience. Creating a screensaver that was 3-dimensional and changed over time seemed like a perfect way to improve our skills and create something enjoyable for everyone. For this project, our team was interested in implementing graphics using OpenGL and C++. This was quite an old project, hence why the. Oh well, Im sure it doesnt take much tweaking of the rendering code to jump between them. Although the screensaver may run on some old 'miniGL' drivers, at least the nVidia GeForce2 or ATI Radeon 7200 is recommended.
#REMAKING OLD SCREENSAVERS IN OPENGL DRIVER#
Graphics card driver with support of and fully conformant with OpenGL 1.1. Tested successfully on Windows 2000, XP and 2003 Server. I made a few versions and only seemed to leave the binaries of the old versions around. Microsoft Windows 98 Operating System or later. This is where my Heart Beat project came from. This project was created for our Software Systems course. Lots of concatenations of rotation transforms. We implemented a screensaver in C++ using OpenGL based on the pipes screensaver. Choose different buttons on the on-screen monitor to do different things for example, reduce or increase image quality, what else can we do (this will show you other services by Imagine Media), fill the screen (to get rid.
Carl Moser, Emma Price, Cleophas Kalekem, Jeremy Garcia Overview Within that screensaver monitor, there’s a little animation involving the earth, a window, and two desks with computers.
