I have always wondered, is CiVIII using somekind of OpenGl acceleration? Because, there is a openGL95 file on the civ3 disk, and also the game gives me some "3d accelerated" feeling? And if, why? Are there something in the game that needs to be accelerated?
OpenGL
- Thread starter Hipshot
- Start date
Civ3 uses DirectX, and Firaxis says they will continue to use only DirectX. (If they used OpenGL, it would make porting to other OSes a *lot* easier. 
)
I am not enough of a tech geek to be sure, but DirectX may use some of the original OpenGL technology, which would explain that file. Then again, it wouldn't be the first "useless" file that was found shipped with the game.
