Is scale important in OpenGL?
c++, opengl
Solution
It doesn't matter except for imprecisions using floating point arithmetic. So try not to use super small or large numbers.
Problem
Does the scale of a scene matter in OpenGL? By scale I mean, for instance, drawing a 1 unit cube but setting the camera position 1000 pixels away vs setting the camera 100 pixels away from a 0.1 unit cube? I guess, firstly, am I correct in thinking this would yield the same results visually? And if so, does anyone know how either would effect performance, if at all? My hunch would be that it would have no effect but a more definitive answer would be nice.
