D3D vs. OGL - an article from a developer's perspective

category: general [glöplog]
 
It's a good read:

The article does not tell much - even if you were a beginner.

d3d won? well, maybe for win users. Not for Mac and Linux ones.

My linux with OpenGL is stronger than your Windows with its DirectX blablabla. Wow, some zealots still fight about that in 2007?

I thought a graphics API was a mean, not an end...

keops: I agree.. it's the same battles just reworded to whatever the specific thing is..

most people only care about the END result, not how they got there. you can give 1 man a very expensive pro tools rig, another a c64 ... and yet the c64 tune sounds a lot better ;-)

to all, watch the date, its a 2001 thread. It was upped by rmeht for being thread number 128 !
