At the same time ATI had a new 8500 coming too it had a better pipeline and that became shader model 1.1. So the geforce 3 became shader model 1.0 pretty much effectively was built into direct 3d 8. The Geforce 3 based card was also used in the orignal xbox as well. Shaders came about in this card and instead of just playing caught up with OpenGL. Here is where things start to change the geforce 3 changes a lot of things. Direct 3d 7 comes around and adds T&L and the concept of vertex buffers that comes into play later.

OpenGL always had the pipeline for T&L it could be done as software solution before a hardware solution came about. Direct 3d 6 rolls out with multitexturing, but no T&L. The card's T&L was pretty much the same as OpenGL's T&L(there were some differences however). In comes the GeForce 256 which pretty killed 3dfx cards and it had vertex transform and lighting(T&L). Direct 3d 5 was out around this time but it didn't have support for it at all, but multitexturing had a costly effort so many games didn't use it. Well Nvidia was next come out the gate with their TNT card which had multitexturing, so a extension was added to OpenGL. Jumping forward 3dfx had this little thing on their hardware called multitexturing, for their glide api. Other vendors struggle to get a fully support OpenGL card out and now were are only left with 2 for most part ATI(now AMD) and nvidia.

Nvidia was first to have full support for openGL. However 3dfx had this mini implement that wasn't full opengl support but it ran GLquake. Early non-workstation desktop video card didn't have support for OpenGL. The first immediate was based on a execute buffer without going into too much detail lets just say it wasn't good. The only games I know off of the top of my head that used it were lego Island and Jane's Combat Israeli Air Force, these games don't work in Vista or higher because their calls were removed. Retained was a COM-based scene graph API it was removed in later versions(you can still called it in pre-vista). It was junk, there was retained and immediate mode. Microsoft bought them and brought and turned their API into Direct 3d 2 and 3. In the start of Direct 3d there was RenderMorphics with their Reality Lab 3D API.
We need to step back for a bit, back to the days of 3dfx, nvidia, ati, and countless other gpu's.

I'm going try to keep this as simple to understand without having to be a code guru. Some of these don't apply much today but they are still apart of Direct X, such as DirectWrite, DXGI, DirectDraw, there are bunch more but lets not go there. There is little reason to believe that OpenGL won't become much more popular in the future if not overcome DirectX in popularity.ĭirect 3D this should be a of comparison NOT Direct X as there are bunch of function's that are outside of the graphic programing.

the Mac platform is being targeted for gaming in the future (Steam is there now, Origin was just ported to it, Frostbite 2 is being ported to it)
basically all handheld devices (cell phones and tablets) use a striped down version (OpenGL ES) that has similar ideas and structures as the full desktop version

the Wii, Wii U, PS3, 3ds, Vita use and most likely PS4 will use a variant of OpenGL as their rendering pipe Valve also has a lot of interest in moving to a more open platform like Linux so they will be pushing OpenGL Then there are all these reasons to watch OpenGL in the future: OpenGL has a chance to make a huge comeback with the Khronos group (the managing body for OpenGL) being much more focused on yearly or 6-month release time frames to keep new features in the API. Things like a atomic counters or transform feedback are handled in a slightly more difficult way in DirectX but the capabilities are still there. Here is a comparison of the two that looks at OpenGL 4 and DirectX 11.1 and while there is much more "red" in the modern DirectX columns than the modern OpenGL column, these are more convenience features. I am much more of an OpenGL programmer, but there looks to be very little that DirectX lacks in capabilities. With the release of OpenGL 4.3, there are very few differences in capabilities of the API's.
