SciTech MGL is an "open source"/free-license multi-platform graphics library designed to help you quickly create interactive 2D and 3D graphics applications. SciTech MGL handles the mundane housekeeping chores of creating graphics applications and allows you to focus on writing high-level code. It provides fast, low-level rasterization of 2D and 3D primitives that can be used for creating computer games, user-interface software, and other real-time graphics applications. SciTech MGL currently supports development under Windows 95/NT or DOS, and can be ported to other platforms and operating systems in as few as 1000 lines of code. SciTech MGL has full screen OpenGL API support to provide programmers with a 3D API that can scale from software-only (using low-resolution graphics modes), all the way up to full 3D hardware geometry acceleration. SciTech MGL allows developers to create applications using the OpenGL API in either a window or full screen mode (rendering to VGA, VESA VBE or DirectDraw surfaces) in the Windows or DOS environments. Also included is a "Game Framework&quot\; that speeds development of both regular 2D/3D games and OpenGL games. It includes full support for on-the-fly switching between windowed modes, full-screen modes, and available color depths. Several supplemental libraries are available for SciTech MGL as free downloads with full source code, including a graphical user interface toolkit, a fixed/floating point transform library, 2D and 3D rendering libraries, a 3D modeling library, and a data structure template library. The small program linked on this site is a download management tool that allows you to select from a list of available components to retrieve via the Internet. The actual size of your SciTech MGL download depends on the components you choose.
