I need to find the nut meme about programming languages again

Edit: Well this meme at least gets the gist of it

Ooh been there done that, but with assembly language and direct register and video memory access, lol ancient memories...

Aah!

Remember direct mode/protected mode? Mode 13? That 64k color buffer, aah memories :-)

[-] logi@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Yup. All of that. And the modes got even weirder too.

You get a matrix, and you get a matrix. Everything gets a matrix. That's my main memory from OpenGL.

Worldmatrix, objectmatrix, movematrix, ... !

[-] Dultas@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

It's been a while. Is worldmatrix the same as viewmatrix? Or is that a whole other matrix?

[-] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago

View matrix has the perspective 1/v thing in it IIRC, the world euh, yeah it was a long time ago...
