Open GL
« on: December 05, 2004, 08:51:33 PM »
Hi everybody!!

Exist the possibility? (in the future) to move Direct X to Open GL??
Open GL is best, faster and allows to create non-windows version, for example for Linux or Mac. And it is much more compatible with all today’s video cards (even the on-board ones)
I think that is almost impossible, but I don't loose anything asking  ;D and that could be absolutely great!!

While I disagree on OpenGL being best, faster and more compatible :) because both system have their pros and cons, easier portability is a big advantage indeed. Although it would be nice to see a Linux port of WME one day, unfortunately I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon (if ever), simply because I don't have time for that. There are many many more important features I'd like to add to WME than porting it to other OS, especially when it's possible to run WME games using WineX.
