Will Windows 7 support both DirectX and OpenGL?
Yes. it is up to the video card manufacturer to support OpenGL, however.
How do you you include opengl in c plus plus?
OpenGL is not software, it is a specification for cross-platform graphics rendering. All modern graphics cards support the OpenGL specification. In order to program with OpenGL you must first load the OpenGL function pointers. Although you can do this manually it's best to use a library specific to your hardware. Both nVidia and ATI provide their own libraries with tutorials. Remember that OpenGL is not software so there is no official SDK as such. There is no header file named 'opengl' (not officially at least). The OpenGL library headers typically use a gl prefix, such as gl.h, glut.h and glaux.h. The best place to start is by reading the FAQ provided by the official OpenGL website (see related links below). If you're using Windows, you also have the option of using the DirectX API rather than OpenGL. DirectX is not only easier to work with, it also provides support for audio, animation, networking, and so on. OpenGL is purely for graphics rendering but is cross-platform (DirectX only works with Windows).
Files needed to run openGL program?
In order to run a OpenGL program, you must download and install a program called GLDirect. This program allows you to run OpenGL-based games and other applications using your graphics card's DirectX drivers.
Windows vista your opengl is not working it says that it is not supported by your comp and goes back to software mode what do you do to play in opengl or give you a link to fix your opengl?
In order to run OpenGL on Vista, you must download and install a program called GLDirect. This program allows you to run OpenGL-based games and other applications using your graphics card's DirectX drivers.
How can i find the version of shader i have?
To find the version of the shader you have, you can typically check the graphics API documentation or your graphics card settings. On Windows, you can use tools like DirectX Diagnostic Tool (dxdiag) or OpenGL Extensions Viewer for OpenGL shaders. Alternatively, you can run a shader code snippet that retrieves the version using GLSL (OpenGL) or HLSL (DirectX) commands to print the shader version in your application.
Can you use opengl instead of a direct3d device?
You can't replace Direct3d with OpenGL because it's part of your computer. However you can run OpenGL programs or games by downloading and installing a program called GLDirect. This program allows you to run OpenGL-based games and other applications using your graphics card's DirectX drivers.
Where do you get DirectX for Google Earth?
You can download and install the latest DirectX drivers from Microsoft website. Quickest install is using the DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer listed in related links below. You can switch Google Earth display mode between OpenGL and DirectX (see related link).
How do you play openGL game i have 3d card nvdia Geforce fx 5200 with 128 mb ram but it doesnt play opengl game.?
In order to run OpenGL games, you must download and install a program called GLDirect. This program allows you to run OpenGL-based games and other applications using your graphics card's DirectX drivers.
How do you make CS Source to run in OpenGL mode?
You can play CS 1.6 in OpenGL mode by changing the video mode settings to OpenGL in the options menu or if you're running Vista or Windows 7, you can download and install a program called GLDirect. This program allows you to run OpenGL-based games and other applications using your graphics card's DirectX drivers.
Can you view video without directx?
The correct answer is "yes" in the seance that only Windows run DirectX. Other operating systems run OpenGL instead, so therefore. Yes, you can view video without DirectX.However, every Windows system is shipped with some version of DirectX, and it relies on it to display graphics. So therefore, Windows needs DirectX to view video.
What are some typical features of a graphics card?
Graphics cards typically support DirectX 10, have a number of pixel and vector shaders and also support OpenGL.
How do you design a 2D mmorpg?
you can use Direct X or OpenGL to do that but I recommend OpenGL .. it's open source , tons of lessons and examples but Microsoft is working with DirectX ref.s : http://nehe.gamedev.net/ http://www.gamedev.net/
