  While your at it get an english mentor to help you learn to spell. The least you can do is ask "nicely" for someone to mentor you.   -------Homepage: http://students.washington.edu/andrey ;  Funny, admins, how I can get in trouble for sarcastically explaining to someone that their idea might not have the general appeal that they think it does (which, I admit, probably wasn''t the most diplomatic way to go about it), but this kind of response happens all the time and gets by... ;  Well it depends on what you need to know.  You were asking about getting keyboard presses in nehe''s sdk.  I looked for an sdk by nehe but didn''t find it.  I assume you mean how you do it in opengl?  Basically you don''t.  Although GLUT can do it very easily.  If you do a search on GLUT you will find what you need.  If you have any questions about opengl I''m sure I can help although I use it primarily for 3d games.

""The degree of technical competence is inversely proportional to the level of management.  ""Any given program, when running, is obsolete.  " ;  basicly, i don''t like nehe''s sdk, so i''m going to program my own. i''ve never programed something for others to use before, and i need to know a few things. ;quote:Original post by Instruo  Funny, admins, how I can get in trouble for sarcastically explaining to someone that their idea might not have the general appeal that they think it does (which, I admit, probably wasn''t the most diplomatic way to go about it), but this kind of response happens all the time and gets by...You expect us to catch everything within four minutes? The fact that he''s wrong doesn''t change the fact that you were wrong.quote:Original post by Wreakon  While your at it get an english mentor to help you learn to spell.

If you have nothing to say to his actual concern, say nothing.My trigger finger''s getting itchy again. ;  No, I wasn''t expecting you to catch it in four minutes, I just figured I''d mention its occurance, since so many go unmentioned.As to Cibressus'' question, what where you planning to cover in your SDK? ;  A easy way to create 3d games, just a test bed for my game ideas.the syntax would be something likeObject ball;ball.shape = setModel("model.ase");ball.texture = setTexture("this.bmp");ball.material.diffuse = {0.7,0.2,0.3};ball.lit = true;int render(WindowControl winControl){} ;  Hello..Not sure if I can be a mentor to you, but if you like, you can chat with me on msn.  I''m currently working on my own game engine using c++ and Opengl so perhaps we can share our experiences as we both move a long with our projects...This goes for anyone else that wants to add me as well...my msn is tigerstudios_mcr@hotmail.comMike
