Antialiasing in OpenGL, not all graphic cards support it, is that true?
|
My girlfriend's laptop has the SIS 760 chipset which doesn't support antialiasing either.

Anyway, you can download it (for windows) from here:

I like a lot the retro-feeling, and the glow effect is superb, can you explain how are you doing it?
Thanks :) and yes.
It's a basic "bloom" effect, applied to the whole screen. In this case I did it with alpha... |

Either re-write the functionality yourself, or perhaps get someone else to do it for you (depending upon specialisation of code, as mentioned).
