I know it is too earl to think about the final project, but I was hoping to make a 3D maze game in C++ (using OpenGL)

If anyone has a link to a tutorial (that has sample codes that actually compile on my computer), or can help me out by giving me a sample code of their own, please help me out BooHoo

Thanks Very Happy

What are you using to interface with OpenGL and the windowing system?

Hmm for openGL I used SDL to manage my windows and inputs.
Here is a good SDL tutorial.

Here and here are some decent decent openGL tutorials. Most of the tutorials on openGL have been ported to SDL, just find it at the bottom. Also, I uploaded our final project here, you can look at that too if you want.

This guy has some pretty good tutorials too, but he is using GLUT. Once you get the hang of SDL with openGL, it should be easy to port. I prefer SDL for some reason. A lot of tutorial online tend to use windows.h and/or GLUT.
