Hmmm...OpenGL is not THAT hard :)

Got to admit that the NeHe tutorials are really excellent! Having blundered my way through the first 10 or so, I''m now on my mission to write the quintissential "Man With Nothing To Do Blindly Running Around a Boring Looking Space, but With Walls to Bang Into!" game! Quick question though - I can use OpenGL to sort out all the graphics stuff, but with input and sound, my choices are..? DirectX or Windows? Or is there a nice little input/sound engine that I could download to complement OpenGL? Any advice appreciated RM.

Yes, it seems that this implicitly self-proclaimed judge of ability and identifier of so called unworthy pride has an insecurity for his own overbrimming sese of acomplishment, for they say that: it takes one to know one. I dont think that Ritual Majic is one.
Its just best to be cheerful when a novice on the beginners fourum is elated at overcomming a hurdle. Im sure we all know how good that feels, right? This is the beginners fourum, and if encouragement belongs anywhere its here. Im a beginner and I apreciate encouragment and helpful criticism/suggestions.

My question is to the guy who posted FMOD site: if FMOD is FMOD really a viable option over directsound?

Thanks

If it can be remediedWhy be unhappy about that?If it cannot be remediedWhat is the use of being unhappy about that?It's time to put a stop to this procrastination, later. Do, or do not; there is no try.

Yeah the natural high you get if you feel like you just split an atom

This is why people get addicted to programming (I guess there''s a lot of them out here).
