[Dev-C++] The choice between OpenGL & Direct3D?

[Stein N. <tem...@of...>]

Hey!

How do I choose between OpenGL and Direct3D? I'd like to make cool looking 
3D-games, which I can run on my PII 400mhz (32mb nVidia Graphics)!

Thanks

Since your are a beginner(well, even if your weren't), I suggest OGL. It's
cleaner, portable, easier to use and learn... better. Many will dissagree,
though.

You can get a worldbuilder from www.3dmorfit.com (I think - just search for
WorldBuilder at www.softseek.com) in this you create a 3-d world easily (no
code, just add/manipulate objects with mouse/keyboard) then you can add this
world to your program with calls. This should be documented with the
program.
