/prog/ - Getting started with OpenGL

Name: Anonymous 2012-10-27 20:11

I'm looking to get into OpenGL programming. Unfortunately, it looks like most of the online tutorials are outdated.
I found two tutorials that look okay:

http://www.arcsynthesis.org/gltut/
and
http://www.opengl-tutorial.org/

Anyone did those? Are they any good?
I also wouldn't mind buying a book on OpenGL. I'll be looking forward to your recommendations.

Go fuck yourself. People should be discouraged from using OpenGL.

Did I fucking say that? No, of course it's fucking better than DirectX. That doesn't mean people should be using it.

    -1.0f,-1.0f, 1.0f,
