i''m having a problem with the coloring in tutorial 3 -- i''m using the downloaded code from this site, and -- both the square and the triangle are blue! why is this? is there a problem in the code? there doesn''t seem like there is. help?? thanks! a fellow openGL-er-in-progress

I had a somewhat similar problem. This means that you hardware acceleration doesn''t support that color depth. Instead of using 16 bit, use either 24 bir or 256 color(8 bit). If you donm''t know how to do that, read the tutorials more carefully, and you will find a place where he discusses resolution and color depth. Change the code that follows the discussion(if the is the one that changes the color depth)

I hope i make sense,
