An Open Source Direct3D 8.0 Wrapper for Open GL

Jason writes: "RealTech-VR, creators of the V3X 3D engine, also developed a Direct3D-to-OpenGL wrapper and they have now open sourced their work. They are seeking for more hackers to help porting the wrapper to Linux and MacOS. A lot of the functionality of Direct3D is already ported but it still needs quite some work. Get the scoop at OSNews."

    Three Rings for the Elven-gimps under the whip,
    Seven for the Gaylords in their halls of fudge,
    Nine for Mortal Puffs doomed to wank men,
    One for the Dark GayLord on his dark boyfriend
    In the Land of Shitstab where the Gayness lies.
    One Ring to wank them all, One Ring to cum them,
    One Ring to stab them all and in the darkness rape them
    In the Land of Shitstab where the Gayness lies.
    He paused, and then said in a deep voice,
    "This is the Master-Knob, the One knob to wank them all.
    This is the One knob lost many years ago,
    to the great weakening of its master's power.
    Now, he greatly desires to have it up the arse again,
    - but he must NOT have it!"

    congratulations. You ought to be cuddling together with whatever it is you first fucked rather than rushing to the computer and smoking something bad-smelling. Fall asleep with it next time. very enjoyable.

    What is, exactly, your point? Are people removing your apps from the source tree? Are you unhappy because some developers like to write GUI apps (like XMMS, Lynx, etc )?

    If you aren't getting your apps removed, then just don't load X. It's not hard, and since your probably compile your kernel from source, just don't include anything!

    I happen to use AIX, BSD, and Linux daily. My favorite part of Linux is that anyone can write anything they want for it! I can use most of my home toys ( like the AD&D character generator ) without rebooting into Windows, and I can still use ssh, telnet, cat, grep, awk, sed, cvs. Isn't this the whole idea?

    As a long time Linux user, I strenuously object to this direction for my preferred OS. My Linux box is not a toy, and it shouldn't be used as such!
    Linux has succeeded so well because of (until recently) the complete lack of frivolous chrome that bogged down other once-noble systems like DOS. I grudgingly accepted a simple window manager as an occassionally useful tool, but knew full well that some people would get totally carried away with it and force these resource-hog abominations on us like KDE, Gnome and TWM. Serious computing is done with the command line, OK?


    I'm sure that the Enlightenment folks would be very upset by your characterising their efforts as a "complete lack of frivolous chrome".
