OpenGL 1.3 Spec Released
JigSaw writes "The OpenGL Architecture Review Board announced the new OpenGL 1.3 specification (1.8 MB pdf). In OpenGL 1.3, several additional features and functions have been ratified and brought into the API's core functionality. New features include Cube map texturing, multisampling, new texture modes that provide more powerful ways of applying textures to rendered objects, compressed texture framework etc. Let's all hope that GL can catch up with Direct3D now, as with the latest DirectX8, Direct3D has done some big steps towards feature-set, speed and even non-bloatiness when it comes to coding for it, while OpenGL 1.2 was released more than 2 years ago and it did not offer as much."
Good Afternoon Mr. Fox...
Could you be so kind as to confirm the agency of whether this eBay auction holds the actual camera in question of supporting such spy-features as looking through our attendees clothes to determine the presence of brandished weapons, drugs, and or sex toy material? Thanks for your help.

do you have to link to bbspot in all your posts? jeez, you're like a broken record.
Quick... write an article about OGL1.3 Specs. It'll be a quick and easy 5 karma points!!!
Who would do that? what does DHCP have to do with it? DHCP does not necessarily mean dynamic ip addresses. But, more to the point, why would you tattoe it on yer damn arm? It's perplexing to the point of not being funny.
GO! you pathetic wormy karma whore, go!
What's the difference? White people aren't oppressed like black people are.
P.S. I'm white.
That makes my 2nd ed. Red Book even more obsolete. :)

Carmack doesn't agree with you.

Be the first on your block with these bad boys: Order now!
You can alredy get this at 2.5fps.

Blowing karma for originality.

The answer, of course, is no. They even filter out Katz's posts, it's pretty sad how they manage things.
Although I'm glad this was posted to the frontpage. OpenGL must go forward or gaming will die on anything but Windows.
Yeah, that damn anonymous karma whore.
Wait a minute...

Bleah! Heh heh heh... BLEAH BLEAH!!! Ha ha ha ha...
It is a duplicate story, expect duplicate posts. Oh, please go choke to death on a fat cock.
But, as a editor, shouldn't taco at least check to see if it has been posted in the past? Shit, it shouldn't be hard for an 3l33t hacker like taco.
Well, in my universe Carmack isn't god and frankly makes a lot of stupid remarks now and then.
MS has withheld OGL 1.2 for about 2 years now from the MS platform, so D3D could get an andvantage. Guess they ovelooked OGL's extension mechanism...
You damn right it will. And it'll work even better when the next Athlon motherboard chipset will support transparent compression of data over the pipeline. Whew I can see the lag on Doom3 now!
Can't we just cut and paste all the comments from yesterday's post?
as opposed to you, most people agree with me on /.
he says that it is *getting better* You moron, why would he use OpenGL if he preferred DirectX? Go back to remedial trolling 101.
