Loading a Cube Map into OpenGL
In the accompanying online resources for this chapter, you’ll find the example cube map separated into six separate textures in the /res/drawable-nodpi/ folder, one for each face of the cube. Let’s add a new method to our TextureHelper class to load these textures into an OpenGL cube map. We’ll call this method loadCubeMap, and we’ll start off with the following code:
| Skybox/src/com/particles/android/util/TextureHelper.java | |
| | public static int loadCubeMap(Context context, int[] cubeResources) { |
| | final int[] textureObjectIds = new int[1]; |
| | glGenTextures(1, textureObjectIds, 0); |
| | |
| | if (textureObjectIds[0] == 0) { |
| | if (LoggerConfig.ON) { |
| | Log.w(TAG, "Could not generate a new OpenGL texture ... |
