GPL and Direct X

by Tom Massun » Mon, 03 Apr 2000 05:00:00

Stupid question, but, GPL does not support 3D hardware accellerated Direct
X, correct?  It only supports 3DFX, rendition, and OpenGL (in beta), right?

I've seen the GPL posts discussing Direct X and I'm a little confused,
unless that is for joystick and sound only.

Thanks,
Tom

That is correct.

Exactly.  I would imagine that the menus / gui might be using DirectX as well.
