OpenGL Vs Direct X

[lapta]

moving to openGL will just means more work before client is ready without much benefits

As we have to recode directX anyways it isn't much more work i dont think, will need the coder to answer this one.

Poke poke coder.

You microsoft loving ****.

Of course to allow the exe to run on Mac or linux we would need to change it to a non exe, cant think what it's called on Mac. We are able to complie the program pretty easily to work on Mac and linux, but if we carry on using DirectX then we would not be able to complie the prgram to work on non Microcock systems.
OpenGl can use software support rather then hardware to run, but most cards and systems work with both systems.
As mir is made up of 100% pure still images which the exe uses, rather rending the images as the game is running, the differance between directX and openGL would not be noticed at all.

I thought u was in the chat when we said we were going to use openGL.

nah i wasn't on the chat properly one of my ghosts

and just let 'the coder check all the liberalness used in the client code to see if it's all transformable or not ... not just the graphics libraries but the network libraries also
