    3D in C?

    Sorry 'bout a C post here, but I don't know of any other place.

    Thank you!

    Nope, only for C++ and VB, can be found on Microsoft's ftp
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    You can use OpenGL in C, as it is function based, as opposed to DirectX's Object Oriented base. I dont know where you can get the header files, but you might try http://www.opengl.org (i believe).

    Function-based? What does that mean?

    Uses basic C functions instead of classes like C++.

    Right. You do all of your darwing using regular functions, instead of classes.

    Thank you.
    I'm quite new to 3D programming and an (almost) complete newbie in C. But I'll start at the begginning and continue way past the end. I'll probably be back here with results (if that doesn't annoy anyone).

    If you are new to C, you should probably consider switching to C++ instead. It will take you much further, and is (in my opinion) much easier to program in. Take a look in the C++ forums, and perhaps post a thread to get those people's opinions as well.
