I know this is how you do a square -> glBegin(GL_QUADS); glTexCoord2f(0.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f(-bl, -bh, 0.15f); glTexCoord2f(1.0f, 0.0f); glVertex3f(bl, -bh, 0.15f); glTexCoord2f(1.0f, 1.0f); glVertex3f(bl, bh, 0.15f); glTexCoord2f(0.0f, 1.0f); glVertex3f(-bl, bh, 0.15f); glEnd(); //bl and bh are length and height variables but how do you do a circle?

sphere or circle?

sphere:


circle:
I have no clue, but if i had to make a circle...
Create some algorythm to draw 360 lines. That would serve my needs good enough.

[edit] I AM THE MOST INEFFECIANT PERSON IN THE WORLD. Im sure there is some easy command.

for a circle you can make a loop from 0 to 2*PI.
for the x value you take cos(loop_var) and for the y value you take sin(loop_var)

I was after a circle but now that I have thought about it I can''t see why I can''t use a sphere. I''ll just check to see how much memeory it requires first
