Creating the MeshRenderer class

For drawing regular game objects, we will create a separate class from the LightRenderer class by adding texture, and we will also add motion to the object by adding physical properties. We will draw a textured object and then add physics to this object in the next section of this chapter. To do this, we will create a new .h and .cpp file called MeshRenderer.

In the MeshRenderer.h file, we will do the following:

1. First, we will add the includes as follows:

#include <vector> 
 
#include "Camera.h" 
#include "LightRenderer.h" 
 
#include <GL/glew.h> 
 
#include "Dependencies/glm/glm/glm.hpp" 
#include "Dependencies/glm/glm/gtc/matrix_transform.hpp" 
#include "Dependencies/glm/glm/gtc/type_ptr.hpp" 

2. Next, we will create the class itself as follows:

Class MeshRenderer{  
 
}; 

3. We will...
