OpenGL Pixmaps
April 16, 2001 01:53 PM
I am trying to render objects on a prerendered background, and I have a bitmap(pixmap?) to use as the background. I know how to do it all, but I want to optimize the pixmap drawing. Is glDrawPixels the fastest way to draw the bitmaps?

glDrawPixels is slow. I think the best way is to draw a quad that is textured with the bitmap.

textures are the quickest way. or if you can do wgl_buffer_region use that (demo on my site)
