My updated object loader now uses OpenGL 3.3's core profile and no deprecated functions. So far I've implemented phong shading, specular lighting and textures. The only extension I'm currently using is anisotropic filtering (GL_EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic). External libraries used so far are GLFW (http://www.glfw.org/) and GLM (http://glm.g-truc.net/). The OpenGL... News - Latest Sun, 16 Jan 2011 16:27:42 +0100 http://thomaskropf.at/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=45&Itemid=113 This is a short video of the project I'm working on.

So I looked into that recently and made a few tests with different values for "resolution" and "real-world size". The outcome is a short video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okHt4z3FGGM) (including crappy music made by myself) and some conclusions.
