I''m having trouble with lesson 6 on nehe''s tutorial. On the code where you declare the texture, nehe didn''t say how to load 2 different texture. His tutorial only specify on one texture. Can someone please help?

have a look at some of the later tutorials. I assume you mean load two textures, then use one for one set of polys and another for another set. Multitexturing - putting more than one texture on the same poly is more complex .

Oh! I thought that i was doing something wrong when I tried to put two different texture on the face and side cube. Do I have to learn Multitexturing to do what I want?

No, I meant that you can load textures and use them on different polygons easily, but putting two textures on one polygon is hard .

I'll be a little more specific. I want the cube to have different faces (sorta like a rubik cube but with pictures). Do I have to read the other tutorials, or can I do it now (just by modifiying the code)? (don't wanna rush ahead without understanding each tutorial first)

I wouldnt call it hard, you just enable texturing for both texture units, bind the textures, and specify 2 sets of texture coordinates. Pretty much twice of everything you do for normal texturing, just doing it once for each TMU

you don''t have to look at any other tutorials, I just said that because I don''t have code off-hand to load and bind 2 textures. Fiddle around, working simple stuff like this out is what makes you a good programmer.

nevermind. I just found out this morning (a good night sleep will do wonders!).

anyway, thanks for the help everyone! appreciated!

Edit: Removed my code and explanation. AFTER having my coffee, i couldn't make sense out of it. ACKK, who cares. i got it working anyway. :D
