I trying to use VAOs, VBOs and IBOs to draw a bunch of sphere over a plane. Before using these, everything was drawn as expected. After I started to use those, things got weird. I can't post my whole code here because I have 5 classes (but if necessary I can provide a link to my code), so I'll try to post what I think it's useful.
With this class I can draw a sphere:
SphereShaderProgram::SphereShaderProgram(std::string vertexShaderPath, std::string fragmentShaderPath) : ProgramManager(vertexShaderPath, fragmentShaderPath)
{
_sphereH = 20;
_sphereW = 20;
_vbo = 0;
_vao = 0;
_ibo = 0;
CreateProgram();
BuildSphere();
BuildVAO();
}
SphereShaderProgram::~SphereShaderProgram()
{
glDeleteVertexArrays(1, &_vao);
glDeleteBuffers(1, &_vbo);
glDeleteBuffers(1, &_ibo);
}
void SphereShaderProgram::DrawSphere(const glm::mat4 &Projection, const glm::mat4 &ModelView)
{
_ModelViewProjection = Projection * ModelView;
_ModelView = ModelView;
Bind(); //glUseProgram
glBindVertexArray(_vao);
LoadVariables();
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, _sphereIndexes.size(), GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0);
glBindVertexArray(0);
UnBind();
}
int SphereShaderProgram::Get1DIndex(int line, int column)
{
return line * (int) _sphereH + column;
}
void SphereShaderProgram::BuildSphere()
{
for (int l = 0; l < _sphereH - 1; l++)
{
for (int c = 0; c < _sphereW - 1; c++)
{
int v1_1 = Get1DIndex(l, c);
int v2_1 = Get1DIndex(l + 1, c + 1);
int v3_1 = Get1DIndex(l + 1, c);
int v1_2 = Get1DIndex(l, c);
int v2_2 = Get1DIndex(l, c + 1);
int v3_2 = Get1DIndex(l + 1, c + 1);
_sphereIndexes.push_back(v1_1);
_sphereIndexes.push_back(v2_1);
_sphereIndexes.push_back(v3_1);
_sphereIndexes.push_back(v1_2);
_sphereIndexes.push_back(v2_2);
_sphereIndexes.push_back(v3_2);
}
}
for (int l = 0; l < _sphereH; l++)
{
for (int c = 0; c < _sphereW; c++)
{
float theta = ((float) l / (_sphereH - 1)) * (float) PI;
float phi = ((float) c / (_sphereW - 1)) * 2 * (float) PI;
float x = sin(theta) * cos(phi);
float z = sin(theta) * sin(phi);
float y = cos(theta);
_sphereCoordinates.push_back(x);
_sphereCoordinates.push_back(y);
_sphereCoordinates.push_back(z);
}
}

And with that, a plane:

This, on the other hand, is my main:

exit(EXIT_FAILURE);

glm_ModelViewMatrix.pop();

}
glm_ModelViewMatrix.pop();
}
}
}
glm_ModelViewMatrix.pop();

glfwSwapBuffers(window);

glfwPollEvents();

glfwTerminate();
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
Instantiating the plane and then the sphere program, I get the following result (no plane at all):
Changing the order, that is the result:
I'm trying to find a clue about what I'm missing, because I don't have any idea about what is wrong. Before using VAOs (just using glVertexAttribPointer
and glDrawElements
), everything was drawn correctly.
Thank you in advance.
The problem is with the placement of the glVertexAttribPointer()
call. You're calling it in the LoadAtributeVariables()
method, which in turn is called from the Draw*()
method.
This should really be part of the VAO setup, for a couple of reasons:
glVertexAttribPointer()
sets up the attribute to pull data from the currently bound VBO, ie the buffer bound as GL_ARRAY_BUFFER
. The first problem is only a performance issue. The second is the reason why your code does not work, since you do not have the correct VBO bound when glVertexAttribPointer()
is called.
To fix this, you only need to move the LoadAtributeVariables()
call into BuildVAO()
, at this location:
// Generate and bind the vertex buffer object
glGenBuffers(1, &_vbo);
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, _vbo);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, _sphereCoordinates.size() * sizeof(float), &_sphereCoordinates[0], GL_STATIC_DRAW);
LoadAtributeVariables();
and remove it from where it currently is, so that it is not called before each draw call anymore.
