this is a screenshot of my simple demo

Looks good, but the weapon has rare colours and the cube-texture isnt so good (stone).

Hi condrula

Did you build this in DeleD !! ,and can we try it out

Why not, what is the problem?

Well, the lightmap is just a second layer of the material, with it's own texture and texture coordinates. Rendering it can be done by either rendering the object multiple times, blending in the different layers of the material, or by multitexturing. Googling on multitexturing will give you a lot of info. Nehe has a lesson dedicated to it:

http://nehe.gamedev.net/data/lessons/lesson.asp?lesson=22

(acutally, the engine should first check if there are enough texture units for multitexturing, if not it should either fail or fallback to rendering each layer in a separate stage).

But it all depends on how comfortable you are with 3d programming. If you are just starting out, things like this can be really overwhelming (reading through all the Nehe lessons can help a lot). Once you get the hang of it, multitexturing will be a piece of cake.

Multitexturing isn't that different, if you can already handle normal texture transformations and the basic stuff. Here, you'll find a Lightmapping tutorial. The code is in delphi, but the OpenGL-Commands are mostly similar.
