3d Graphics Library Creating
Hi all!
I'm new in this forum. Can anyone help me on this: How can I create a 3d graphics library (something like OpenGL or DirectX)? Not so advanced as OpenGL or DirectX... I thing that to create a graphics library I just need to "play" with pixels and a "matrix" (not the movie)? Am i right? |

Why not just use DirectX or OpenGL? Making your own would be very, very difficult.

I know that. If I wanted to use DirectX or OpenGL, I would have already did it.
I want t make my own 3d graphics library. But how...? |

Do you know C++? VB would not be a good language to do a 3D graphics library in.

I thing that all I need is to "play" with a matrix. I 've heard that you can create a pixel matrix with VB. Is that true?

look into using directx or opengl before trying to create one. A matrix is a math structure you use to store vectors. It is used to perform basic calculations regarding moving 3d objects. You need to brush up a lot more on basics before you could attempt a library.
