i also dont get how come a mine field was not created

i mean weren''t the for loops supposed to create a mine field 2 triangles high, wide, and deep?
why didnt it?

i have been thinking about the code for about 10 hours now and i really stumped even with the info you all gave me

Ok then, let me make a simple version myself.

    void DrawMine(int x, int y, int z, int xrot, int yrot, int zrot){   glTranslatef(x, y, z);   glRotatef(xrot, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);   glRotatef(yrot, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);   glRotatef(zrot, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);   triangle.DrawTriangle();  // I assume this custom   glRotatef(-zrot, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);   glRotatef(-yrot, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);   glRotatef(-xrot, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);   glTranslatef(-x, -y, -z);}void DrawMineField(int width, int height, int depth, GLfloat spacing){   glTranslatef((0.5f*(width*spacing)), (0.5f*(height*spacing)), (0.5f*(depth*spacing)));   for(int x=0; x<width; x++)   {      for(int y=0; y<height; y++)      {         for(int z=0; z<depth; x++)         {            DrawMine((x*spacing), (y*spacing), (z*spacing), xrot, yrot, 0);         }      }   }}

In this example DrawMineField will draw your mine field with a specified width, height, and depth. The center of the mine field will be on the origin. I hope this helps. Mind you, I did not test this, I just wrote it.

Heh, had to make a correction there. If you got the code and tried it, re-get it.

Just copy the functions over and use the FUNCTION in the draw scene. Don''t mess with the code, that''s probably a bad idea.

quick fix, just rotate before you translate

first im gonna do one without the rotations becuase then I could go on understand what rotating it did

what i would like to know is why you multiplied 0.5f by the spacing and width/depth/etc? why not just multiply them by 1.0f?

I did that to center the mine field. But I just realized it should be -0.5f. Make that change.

glTranslatef((0.5f*(width*spacing)), (0.5f*(height*spacing)), (0.5f*(depth*spacing)));

so the 0.5f should be -0.5f?

or do i add another translate after the loop that has -0.5f?
