    Question

    I am interested in learning Open GL. Can anyone offer any advice on what to download etc in the form of SDKs? I am wanting to develop in C++ on Win98. Any advice appreciated.

    If you have Visual C++, then there are no SDKs to download. Simply #include <gl/GL.h> in your source file. I'll email you a sample application in a moment.

    Cool Nice

    Thanks Parksie. If there are no SDKs, then can you recommend any books or resources (web pages etc?) for learning Open GL, bearing in mind i want to develop in C++ and the target system is Win 98. Thanks dude.

    Take a look at http://nehe.gamedev.net

    It tells you everything to get you started. http://www.opengl.org is the official site, which has lots of cool links.
