Title: Is there something lwjgl-y about Polyline?
Post by: AGP on August 03, 2014, 02:09:20 am
Or have you just not made it available to the software renderer out of disinterest? It would be cool to have it in software...

By the way, is it just a coincidence that while I'm posting questions on the board nobody else seems to? For instance, I was trying to lend a hand during your vacation and as long as I was answering the questions but not asking them two or three people were constantly posting here. But as soon as I posted a question that changed. :- )

The current implementation is based on OpenGL only. I would have to add an abstraction layer and some additional stuff like line clipping for the software renderer. It's not really worth the effort IMHO.

I don't think that there's any correlation. I always appreciate it if others are answering questions. That's the actual point of having a community.

I agree with the second statement. How would you do lines in software (just use awt.Graphics?)?

That's one option. I guess it depends on what you want to achieve with it...
