OpenGL Special Vertex Attribute Pointer Functions

The commonly used Vertex Attribute Pointer Function is the standard glVertexAttribPointer, however dispite supporting multiple types of inputs, it should only be used for floats.

It will attempt to cast your value to float and then back to the original type which will likely result in broken values.

Integers

You should use glVertexAttribIPointer

Doubles

You should use glVertexAttribLPointer
