Is anyone up to translate the NeHe lessons to FB? Here is the lesson 19, the particles one:
http://www.freebasic.net/temp/NeHe_lesson19.zip
The first lessons should be easy to translate, use the C Linux/SDL versions as base, the Windows ones are complex and non-portable (obviously).
I'll include the lessons in the next release, any help is welcome, all credits will be given, thanks..

Hi:
I have lesson 20 and 29 in fbgfx style. I think only the C++ ones will present any difficulty (for me) translating into FreeBASIC.
If you are happy with fbgfx style code I will do some more, but I donât feel like learning sdl.
Have fun

I would love to see the OGL tuts in FBGFX, infinitely more than I would like to see them in SDL. Please, do this

If there are any which aren't done in 3 weeks time, I'll do them. As for these three weeks, I have finals and have to study my ass off.

Sure, it doesn't have to be SDL, any portable way to get OpenGL running is okay, there are a dozen of them at moment ;).
Just more 45 lessons left ;)

Hi:
I will start from lesson 4 which is already in the distribution. I did 5 & 6 this morning, and will continue on up. I will post progress here so others can help without wasting time doing the same lessons.
have fun

Where can I get them?

Great Sisophon, can you send them by email or give me a link to download? I couldn't find them at your page, thanks.
I doubt anyone else is translating other lessons, oh well..
aetherfox: the first 3 lessons are pretty much what examples/GL/gl_test.bas is, they don't have to be translated again.

Hi:
I just uploaded lessons 5 to 9 and lesson 20 here.

I can keep working on them until you are ready for updating freebasic. Feedback on format, style etc. would be most welcome.
Thanks

Nice work Sisophon2001... The only comment to your code I can do is that you ported also the BMP loading routines to FB, where as gfxlib is used, you could use BLOAD to load BMP textures, saving up code. Other than this, it's great to have NeHe tutorials coming to FB, keep it up!!
