So, dumb question.... are VBOs actually implemented in PyOpenGL? I've
started looking into it, and I can't find any working examples of anyone
using a VBO in python. (I've found one that looks okay, but it must be for a
previous version, because the function signatures don't even match up for
me.) I've tried to translate examples from C with no luck. As far as I can
tell, here's how you would set one up (vlist is a numpy array):
gl_buffer = glGenBuffers(1)
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER_ARB, gl_buffer)
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER_ARB, vlist, GL_STATIC_DRAW)
glVertexPointerd(0)
The last line gives me an error:
TypeError: ('cannot be converted to pointer', <bound method
PointerType.voidDataPointer of <class
'OpenGL.arrays.arraydatatype.GLdoubleArray'>>)
So... yeah. Any working examples?
Thanks,
Christopher
