[PyOpenGL-Users] Ingame Overlays

[Rowan <row...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am thinking of embarking on a project to create an in-game mp3
player control. This control will be brought into the foreground of
the game.

My question is it possible to overlay or bring to the very foreground
a graphical control on top of any directx or opengl game, using
pyopengl?

The system would work similar to xfire, an in game messaging program
for windows. This program creates a "window" in the foreground of the
game you are playing to allow you to type messages to other players.

If opengl is over kill or isn't able to complete the task, could you
direct me to another method or GUI.

Please reply in non-esoteric terms as I am new to python and opengl,
and am using this project as a learning tool for python.

Regards.
