    Question need some advice...badly.

    Hey, i am currently in development of a nibblez game for the pc using the c++ programming language. I have made a fox and hounds game before that uses 2 dimensional arrays for moving the foxes and hounds around on the board. As i said before, i am making a nibbles game and i need to know if there is a DECENT graphics prog for c++ like ccgraph (only not that crappy) for making graphics environments for c++. If there is a better way to do that i would also like to know how to do it.

    I am using either:
    - Microsoft Visual C++ Studio 6 Enterprise Edition (works wit normal c++, not just visual, it really rules)
    and just because it supports graphics header files and such i am also using
    - pcGRASP.

    I have custom developed Vector, and Linked Lists classes ready for use too ... if that helps...

    Thanks for your time.

    for a game where speed is of little concern then you can use the win32 api to do simple graphics with bitmaps. If you want/need more than that there is directx (you need the sdk from msdn.microsoft.com) or opengl (you will have the libraries for this already). for opengl go here for a tut.
    Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
    And the FAQ is here :- http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/smartfaq.cgi
