Heloo the good news is that i got the job. the bad news is that it''s about programing OpenGl. of course there is going to be a course before i''m thrown to the water. but here r a few questions to get me started. What is That OpenGl thing? What r the similarities to directx? What Books u recommend. guess u like easy question like this. i guess i would if i know the answer. peace on earth.

browse around the site before you ask these questions. =)

Try the http://nehe.gamedev.net/.
OpenGL is a graphics library for 2D and 3D graphics. DirectX is a multimedia library what provides graphics, sound, network, input,...

Lemme get this straight... you applied for and then GOT a job programming in OpenGL without even knowing what it is? Didn''t they ask YOU any questions or for a demo of something you''ve done????? Just interested...

In The Add They Say That they Want C,C++ programers
i came to an interview and there the man told me there is
going to be a 4 monthes course about unix programing and OpenGL after the interview their was a test in c,C++.
wich i passed and that''s it.
i think i made it because i had knowledge of multithreading
and directX.
any way i don''t think there are alot or even a few
OpenGL programers in israel and that is why they give
this course
if there is any game programer from israel then i would like to know.

O.k
hope i satisfied yours curiosity.
bye

Good luck with that job mate, methinks you''ll like OpenGL a lot better than DirectX

Red book: OpenGL programming guide.
Very worth the read.
Blue book : OpenGL reference manual.
It contains all commands and explain them.
