You are an excellent instructor. You could do this for a living.

Your audio is better than most of programming youtubers now.

I'm glad this is helping me here almost 11 and a half years later.

Hey :) I'm gonna answer from my own experience! Back in 2003, I was young enough to make the worst learning mistake of my programmer life! Learning how to write something by heart from scratch.. Don't waste your time on the syntax! The syntax doesn't matter, just focus on the logic, the mathematic behind each principle.. Then just focus on the OpenGL routines. Once you've understood how everything works, thing will be much more easier and you'll build great things ;)

Great tutorials. When you say "at least 8" lighting sources 0:49, do you mean at most?

[@ComradeSlice]

These tutorials are very helpful. Thank you for making these! 5/5

Thank you so much!

God damn it I struggled with that shit for hours... now it works. thanks!

A question about normals, aren't normals calculated based on the plane? If what you have there are the normals of the faces, why openGL can't calculate them automatically, using the plane (vertices)?

[@ChisponGroxo]

good

[@srednikpe]

At least 8? Not at most?
