OpenGL support

Hi all,



is there any reliable latest news about the support of OpenGL support
under Windows Vista? Besides current rumors and forum posts I need more
precise information whether OpenGL will be emulated via D3D or there
will be a direct support combining performance and Aeroglass effects by
the time Windows Vista finally ships. As this is part of my current
studies and a software project information should be very dependable.



Thank you for your answer.

Michael

Re: OpenGL support

Hey,

Really sorry I can't be any more use to you than this - but I'm pretty sure
that OpenGL will be supported in Vista. Aero Glass depends on the hardware
manufacturers drivers, such as Forceware drivers from Nvidia.

However, I found this link on the OpenGL forums which might be some use to
you. It should be available from the homepage if the following link doesn't
work )
