--------------------------------------------------- If you upgrade your OPENGL to 1.1 the examples that come with eCS or OS/2 Warp toolkit won't run anymore, you have to recompile them. --------------------------------------------------- http://www.os2ezine.com/v2n10/games.htm OpenGL 1.1 Goes Gold Look for OpenGL to be an important gaming technology on both the OS/2 and Windows platforms. OS/2 Warp version 4 shipped with OpenGL v1.0, but IBM has recently released v1.1. Do you need it? Not yet, but you will as soon as OpenGL software begins to take advantage of the added features in v1.1. Look for OpenGL accelerating video drivers for OS/2 in maybe the next 6 months or so, as IBM is due to release an OpenGL DDK (Device driver Development Kit) in the coming months. There will likely be a relationship between the release of the OpenGL drivers and the release of GRADD drivers from major video chip set Independent Hardware Vendors. If you want to download OpenGL v1.1, you can find it on one of IBM's FTP servers. The files you want to get are oglgold.zip and glut.zip. Glut.zip is a replacement for the glut.dll in the oglgold.zip file. --------------------------------------------------- http://www.os2ezine.com/v4n6/p-gameprog.htm Multiplatform Game Programming in OS/2 - by Robert Basler Summary: Start writing games in OS/2 that are easy to port to multiple operating systems.
