Transparent Textured Cube
Apr 10th, 2008, 7:38pm  
I'm trying to make a textured cube transparent. I simply switched the texture in the "textured cube" tutorial to a png. It worked fine in P3D but when I switch over to opengl one side is completely opaque and some sides disappear when you look through to the other side.

I found this thread:

http://processing.org/discourse/yabb_beta/YaBB.cgi?board=OpenGL;action=display;num=1202159498

I think this might help, but I'm not quite sure how to apply this concept.

What you need is hint(ENABLE_DEPTH_SORT); I think.

ok....so that did it, but now little black triangles pop up when you rotate the cube it in a certain way.

hint(enable_depth_sort) sure isn't perfect.

any ideas?
