Recenzje

Mike Jones:

This is an easy introduction to OpenGL, well about as easy as a complex topic can get. The ideas are introduced in plain language and there are diagrams to help. The programs also help make the point of what exactly is being proposed - be prepared to read them in detail and you'll also find the code on the CD along with object models, figures and more.

You had better be fairly proficient in Java as you don't get any help in this area - and this is reasonable. If you know Java however this is a very good introduction to OpenGL and pipeline based graphics in general.

Highly recommended.
