Minimal Panda3D OpenGL ES 2.0 (pandagles2) sample

[panda84]

Hi,

as I’ve learned in IRC Panda 1.8.0 samples are not compatible at all with OpenGL ES 2.0 because OpenGL ES 2.0 doesn’t support fixed function pipeline.

I’m wondering what could be a basic program running on Panda3D’s pandagles2 display.

Would this be ok?

import direct.directbase.DirectStart
base.disableMouse()
camera.setPosHpr((8, -24, 14), (15, -18.5, 0))
panda = loader.loadModel('panda')
panda.reparentTo(render)
run()

I’m asking because I’m getting just a solid red window with display “pandagles2”, while it’s working ok with display “pandagles” and “pandagl”.

Thanks,
Diego

As the great guru rdb said:

you need a shader to render anything, without a fixed function pipeline. in the case of that code, panda applies a ‘default shader’ which is just something that makes it red to let you know something went wrong

So that’s not a valid code without a proper GLSL ES shader.
