Hi all, Does anyone have any experience with OpenGL 3D meshes (also knows as evaluators in OpenGL)? I have created a mesh and would to place a texture on it, problem is, only points I have are the control points of the mesh, not that actual points being drawn on the screen so I don''t know of a way to place a texture on it. Is there a way to get OpenGL to give me back the points of the bezier mesh or do I have to write my own bezier curve generation routine just so I can get my own actual points? Any help is appreciated, Jason A. --- I write code.

Try using glGenTexturei it can create texture coords for you. I think it is used in one of Nehe''s tutorials (Font mapping maybe?)
Its also good for environment mapping

I suggest creating your own bezier patch engine, excellent information on this subject can be found at www.maniacal.org
