iPhone Software Development
iPhone Software Development: OpenGL ES for iPhone : A Simple Tutorial Part 1
It is difficult to find a beginner’s book/tutorial suitable for OpenGL ES 1.1 in iPhone Development, partly because the current version of OpenGL ES is already 2.0 (there is a book on it). OpenGL ES 2.0 code is, unfortunately, NOT backward compatible with the OpenGL ES version 1.1 that iPhone use. If you rely on the materials from OpenGL (not ES) 1.5, some functions / features are not available in OpenGL ES as well. Upto now, there is no primer books on OpenGL ES 1.1 for iPhone Development Environment.

Box2D Forums • View topic – Tutorial: Box2D Level Creation with Curves
Thanks to Shaktool here at the forums, I’ve written up a couple tutorials on making levels in Box2D using InkScape and updated the parser to support Bezier curves. You can now import curves directly into the Box2D engine for your levels and even specify the # of segments for all curves either through a default value or through line-width.
