OpenGL picking VS CP's PointQuery

Post by Blue Prawn »

Hi,
What would you recomand to use for picking when the lib is openGL,
the standard OpenGL picking method, or the Chipmunk PointQuery functions ?

thanks

Up to you I guess. Chipmunk can only pick based on chipmunk shape data, and OpenGL picking works by drawing stuff into a special framebuffer IIRC. Both have advantages and disadvantages.
