Hi
I've got the hang of setting up Opengl onmy system (WinNT4, 3DFX
voodoo1, msvc5) and can get it initialised through my 3DFX card, but I
haven't found any decent tutorials out there that explain all of the
projection modes, glOrtho2D, how to set up a camera, what eye
co-ordinates are etc etc
Does anyone know of a decent tutorial that explains these concepts? I
know glPolygon and glTriangle etc, but just need to know how to set up a
scene without distorting my geometry etc
Many thanks in advance

Lucas Young
