Re: What other libraries do you use with OpenGL

[Lionel Pinkhard <lionelp@worldonline.co.za>]

Hey,

Well, AFAIK (I've never done it myself) it's possible to combine both
OpenGL and DirectX, and I think that game companies actually do this, but
I'm not sure, so maybe somebody else can help you more. Basically, OpenGL
replaces only Direct3D, as for the others, I think you can still use
DirectX, unless you're trying to avoid it on purpose, but then, I can't
really help you with this, sorry. Anyone else???
