Well I have stored the bricks in vectors, I am working on how to get the ball to hit the bricks. I want to know how to do collision detection.

void drawBottomBricks()
{
	glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
	glPushMatrix();
	glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture[3]);
	float br_x = -135, br_y = 55, br_x_right = -100, br_y_top = 70, br_x_width = 35, br_y_height = 15;
	vector <Brick> bricks;
	for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
	{
		bricks.push_back(Brick(br_x, br_y, br_x_width, br_y_height));
		br_x += br_x_width;
		br_x_right += br_x_width;
		glBegin(GL_POLYGON);
		glTexCoord3f(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
		glVertex3f(bricks[i].x, bricks[i].y + br_y_height, 0.0f);
		glTexCoord3f(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
		glVertex3f(bricks[i].x, bricks[i].y, 0.0f);
		glTexCoord3f(1.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
		glVertex3f(bricks[i].x + br_x_width, bricks[i].y, 0.0f);
		glTexCoord3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
		glVertex3f(bricks[i].x + br_x_width, bricks[i].y + br_y_height, 0.0f);
		glEnd();
	}
	glPopMatrix();
	glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
}

Your Snake game (February 2019) had to have collision detection, didn't it, Phil? https://gamedev.net/blogs/entry/2266700-c-console-snake-game/​

Your Pong game (June 2019) had to have collision detection, didn't it? https://gamedev.net/blogs/entry/2267467-win-32-pong/​

well I have got the collision detection to work with the ball and the paddle but I am unsure of how to do it for the bricks and the ball.

Well, how did you implement collision detection for the paddle?

You people are being played. Get rid of this nonsense.

Phil did indeed say he had made Breakout back in 2013. I tried searching out his posts and didn't find that one. Thread locked.
