Rendering 3D Cube | OpenGL 3D Game Tutorial Series #7

 

Hello everyone, and welcome back to the OpenGL 3D Game Tutorial Series!

In this seventh episode we'll see how to render our first 3D Cube in OpenGL!

In particular we will see:

  • what vertices to place in the vertex buffer in order to render a 3D Cube,
  • how to create the Element Buffer Object in order to optimize the usage of vertices through the so-called indices,
  • and, in the end, how to create a Projection Matrix in such a way we can project vertices from 3D space to screen space.

 

The code written in this tutorial works on Windows, macOS and Linux!
