AllegroGL versions of NeHe's OpenGL Tutorials
Original code from Jeff Molofee's OpenGL Windows Tutorials. But the AllegroGL conversions should run on Unix as well. The tutorials themselves are not included in the downloads below, just the code. Go to NeHe's site to view the tutorials.

"There was a reason for the wait. A fellow programmer from the totally cool site Hypercosm, had asked if he could write a tutorial on blending. Lesson eight was going to be a blending tutorial anyways. So the timing was perfect! This tutorial expands on lesson seven. Blending is a very cool effect... I hope you all enjoy the tutorial. The author of this tutorial is Tom Stanis. He's put alot of effort into the tutorial, so let him know what you think. Blending is not an easy topic to cover." |

"Want to know how to speed up you OpenGL programs? Tired of writing lots of code every time you want to put an object on the screen? If so, this tutorial is definitely for you. Learn how to use OpenGL display lists. Prebuild objects and display them on the screen with just one line of code. Speed up your programs by using precompiled objects in your programs. Stop writing the same code over and over. Let display lists do all the work for you! In this tutorial we'll build the Q-Bert pyramids using just a few lines of code thanks to display lists." |

"This tutorial code was written by GB Schmick and is based on his quadratics tutorial (lesson 18). In lesson 15 (texture mapped fonts) I talked a little bit about sphere mapping. I explained how to auto-generate texture coordinates, and how to set up sphere mapping, but because lesson 15 was fairly simple I decided to keep the tutorial simple, leaving out alot of details in regards to sphere mapping. Now that the tutorials are a little more advanced it's time to dive into the world of sphere mapping. TipTup did an excellent job on the tutorial, so if you appreciate his work, let him know!" |
