Where can i find info for getting started with opengl 2.0. Loading the driver, etc. Is it just an extension on 1.1 like all the other updates have been, or is there entirely new ways to go about it? Any info is appreciated.

You might try looking here or in OGL specs here.

if (time() == $) { $ = 0; }

OGL 2.0 on Windows works the same way all other updates since 1.1 have worked.

In windows, the 2.0 features are all extensions.

I have found that using the GLee library helps alot. All the extension management is done for you. To call a function from the 2.0, you just use the function as if it was a normal OpenGL function (like glColor3f ()).

To find it, do a little google serach...

Hope this helps.
