I've looked over the links that Dan Kloke provided. Maybe not all games had the best graphic quality but it demonstrate to me that is absolutely posible to make 3D games in Delphi. Something more: Some of them were quite inginious (not just 'Shoot and run' Doom/Quake style crap).
I hardly wait to finish my current project and then to start my first game. Thanks Dan. http://glscene.org http://www.delphigamer.com http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.skinhat.com/lazarus PS: hmmm... I think I should dig to find that ASM book too. --- Richard R <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Probably cuz most games are written in assembly and derivitives of c which > was designed for the engineer at heart.
