I do not have source code at work etc, but was wondering does the HL SDK allow access to any DC? so one could do their own OpenGL/DirectX coding?

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ] We need access to the D3D Device object, as well as be able to check if the user is in D3D mode. Then we could do something like this -> g_pDevice->SetRenderState(D3DRS_FOGENABLE, TRUE); And get our fog enabled. With the device, we could also set up different fog modes, colors, etc. Otherwise there needs to be some sort of abstract interface we can use in the SDK to enable fog and let the engine handle the details. That's something like what is in there now, but it only works with OGL.
