Because id and Epic have many millions of dollars and better developers to throw at the problem than I do. :) To put it another way, they have lots of in-house middleware that is built on top of those technologies to make them more effective. SDL and OpenGL is the bottom of the stack for them. We mere mortals often prefer to start with something a little higher level. :) -- Ben Sizer -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
