GB> Is it possible to write fast 3-D graphics applications under Windows? Is GB> there any way to do page flipping in a window? I'm new to Windows GB> programming, so I'd appreciate any ideas or suggestions. I've already GB> thought of using fixed- point math and trig look-up tables. Any GB> suggestions on how to (or how not to) implement these? Windows does not support 3D graphics, you have to do the calculations yourself. Neither does it support video page flipping or multiple video pages. So 3D animation or flicker free animation at all is a very hard thing (I guess) to do in windows.
