I suspect the text is spinning because your model view matrix still contains what it had before you drew the triangle, so you could try resetting that with glLoadIdentity(). I should have added that line to the code snippet that I posted earlier.
As for the disappearing triangle, set your projection matrix into perspective mode before drawing it. As a rule of thumb, set the projection matrix into perspective mode and reset the model view matrix to wherever you want it before drawing in 3d. Similarly, set the projection matrix into ortho mode and reset the model view matrix to identity before drawing in 2d. Also, disable depth testing before drawing the FPS display and re-enable it for drawing in 3d. --- Rod On Feb 8, 2008 1:16 PM, Mark Melvin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks Rod, > > It still doesn't seem to work.
