Hi,<\/p>\n

I was planning to create a 2D game with LWJGL for LD. I know my way around OpenGL and everything but I haven’t been able to create a tile system with VBO’s<\/strong>, has anyone done it and \/ or could you give me any tips for doing it. ? Thanks for any answers.<\/p>\n

With modern OpenGL I mean not using glBegin(), glEnd(), glTranslatef();<\/p>\n

In other news here’s a link to a forum post about faster rendering in OpenGL with VBO’s<\/strong>, something you should really look in to. Here’s the link :\u00a0http:\/\/www.java-gaming.org\/index.php?topic=28209.0<\/p>\n
