Im trying to implement my own glOtho function from the opengles docs http://www.khronos.org/opengles/documentation/opengles1_0/html/glOrtho.html
to modify a Projection matrix in my vertex shader. It's currently not working properly as I see my simple triangles vertices out of place. Can you please check the code below and see if i'm doing things wrong.
I've tried setting tx,ty and tz to 0 and that seems to make it render properly. Any ideas why would this be so?
void ES2Renderer::_applyOrtho(float left, float right,float bottom, float top,float near, float far) const{
float a = 2.0f / (right - left);
float b = 2.0f / (top - bottom);
float c = -2.0f / (far - near);
float tx = - (right + left)/(right - left);
float ty = - (top + bottom)/(top - bottom);
float tz = - (far + near)/(far - near);
float ortho[16] = {
a, 0, 0, tx,
0, b, 0, ty,
0, 0, c, tz,
0, 0, 0, 1
};
GLint projectionUniform = glGetUniformLocation(_shaderProgram, "Projection");
glUniformMatrix4fv(projectionUniform, 1, 0, &ortho[0]);
}
void ES2Renderer::_renderScene()const{
GLfloat vVertices[] = {
0.0f, 5.0f, 0.0f,
-5.0f, -5.0f, 0.0f,
5.0f, -5.0f, 0.0f};
GLuint positionAttribute = glGetAttribLocation(_shaderProgram, "Position");
glEnableVertexAttribArray(positionAttribute);
glVertexAttribPointer(positionAttribute, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, vVertices);
glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, 3);
glDisableVertexAttribArray(positionAttribute);
}
Vert shader
attribute vec4 Position;
uniform mat4 Projection;
void main(void){
gl_Position = Projection*Position;
}
Solution From Nicols answer below I modifed my matrix as so and it seemed render properly
float ortho[16] = {
a, 0, 0, 0,
0, b, 0, 0,
0, 0, c, 0,
tx, ty, tz, 1
};
Important note You cannot use GL_TRUE for transpose argument for glUniform as below. opengles does not support it. it must be GL_FALSE
glUniformMatrix4fv(projectionUniform, 1, GL_TRUE, &ortho[0]);
From http://www.khronos.org/opengles/sdk/docs/man/xhtml/glUniform.xml
transpose Specifies whether to transpose the matrix as the values are loaded into the uniform variable. Must be GL_FALSE.
