Well, as amateur opengl programmer I do care. While no one expects glDrawPixels to be fast these days, having (for example) to support hardware that has accellerated quads but not triangles would be kind of painful. Of course, this is a silly example, but the statement that video guys don't care about how things are to be done is not entirely true. Then again, I think texture for overlay is straightforward enough ;) Wouter van Heyst _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
